Good with small dogs?: Kelsey recently had the pleasure of meeting two small dogs, and I’m delighted to report that she handled the encounters with grace and poise. Her interactions were nothing short of exemplary. When a particularly exuberant puppy couldn’t resist jumping up on her, Kelsey maintained her composure and appropriately stood her ground. When the puppy attempted another leap, Kelsey issued a gentle but firm warning, making it clear that she meant business. Her responses were entirely appropriate, and the puppy quickly grasped the message.
Despite these initial exchanges, Kelsey and the puppy have developed a playful camaraderie, enjoying each other’s company and engaging in delightful play sessions. It’s heartening to see such positive interactions, demonstrating Kelsey’s ability to communicate effectively and foster harmonious relationships with her fellow canine companions.

11/22/2024: Hello, world! Kelsey here, reporting from my new digs at CBR. I must say, the transport team was quite taken with me; they almost didn’t want to hand me over. Foster Dad says I remind him of their old brindle boxer, and he keeps joking that my elegant black muzzle will turn white if I stick around too long. But I’m just a young pup, so I think that’s a long way off!
I traveled like a champ, though I must confess, I’m not just any boxer—I’m part Diva. Yes, you heard that right. Part Diva! And let me tell you, I have no love for wire kennels. I turned mine around within the first hour on my first night! Foster Mom wasn’t having any of that and put me in what she called a “prison-looking kennel.” Can you believe it? But I behaved like the good girl I am and let everyone sleep peacefully. When she tried me in a regular wire kennel again, she caught me pushing on the walls. She says zip-tying the walls is standard for a young diva boxer like me.
Oh, and speaking of being a diva, have you seen my adorably tiny face? It’s just as cute as can be! Foster Mom thinks I need to put on some weight, but when I sit at the dinner table with the humans, I’m like a stealthy statue. They don’t even notice I’m there!
I adore the humans I live with. Today was the first time Foster Mom left me at home with the boys. I was lounging on the couch with the kid, watching TV, when she came back. I sprang up, ready to protect my domain with my big girl voice, only to realize it was just her! She laughed, and I wagged my nub and greeted her like the loyal protector I am.
Foster Mom thinks I’m a good girl. She’s tested my patience by playing with my face, ears, feet, nub, and even taking food from me while I was eating. I passed her tolerance test with flying colors.
I’m off to meet the “dogtor” next week—a CBR requirement before I can find my forever family. I’m spayed and heartworm negative, so Foster Mom says I’ll be ready to move soon.
Foster Mom and Dad dream of having a doggie farm for pups like me who just need a temporary hotel. They say I remind them of their beloved boxer who passed away. But Foster Mom always says, “We can’t keep all the good ones,” so help a diva out because diva needs her forever home! I do not pose for the paparazzi and will look away! ❤
