BARRETT
BARRETT

Barrett AKA "Bear" When we lost our 6.5 year old Boxer, Maximus, to cancer last July, it left a huge hole in our family. We raised him from a puppy and he was a huge part of our pack. We knew in our hearts that we could never "replace" Max, but we knew that we wanted another Boxer, because obviously, they're the world's best breed of dog. This time around, we wanted to rescue a boxer to give him or her another shot at a great life. Enter Barrett. It took a while for us to actually get him, but as destiny and fate would have it, we ultimately would up with each other in the end. Barrett could never replace Max, but he's done an outstanding job of coming in and blending seamlessly into our pack. We all love him to death! He's basically a 60 pound teddybear of a lap dog who just so happens to look fierce and mean, but he's got a huge, loving heart of gold. He's also the nosiest, most inquisitive dog we've ever met. Our boys love him and his favority thing to do (behind eating) is to stay about 2" off of their heels at all times. He's our third son, just with two extra legs. Where they go, Bear goes. His most exciting part of the day is when the boys get home from school. He also loves our backyard rough and tumble tow-rope sessions and running free at our local park. Bear is a magnificent Boxer and we are just so appreciative of the good folks over at LSBR (Leanne, Bobbie, and Alicia), who went out of their way and the extra mile to put us together. Thank you for helping Bear to repair and restore our "pack". We love him. Best regards, George Eddings Jr.
