Boxy, the Dog of the Day
Name: Boxy
Age: One and a half years old
Gender: Male Breed: Boxer
Home: Istanbul, Turkey
 
   What makes Boxy special is every day he tries to wake me up by making some strange noises like hitting a wall or something and barking. And when I wake up and get ready for school, he just watches me and he walks with me to the school. When my school finishes, he comes back home with me! He is like a bodyguard. Also when he is hungry he starts to make noises to get our attention and when he's done with his meal he puts his tray aside!

    He likes to play with me very much. He likes his toys like balls and when he wants to play something he just jumps over to me. He runs towards the gate of our garden when he wants to get out. And the best thing I like about him, when someone wants to visit us he's the first one to appear. He starts to smell and we cannot let anybody in if he doesn't say "okay." (After smelling the visitor he barks one time and he goes back to his home this means OK.) If it's not okay, he'll never ever let anybody in, even my friends and relatives unless we are there to convince him that they are truly okay with us. He takes his job seriously. When he's alone at home, he owns our home and begins to guard it. He doesn't accept any other dogs or animals threatening his terrain! I try to enjoy every single moment when we play together! Boxy is the best!
