Gorda

Meet Gorda, a spirited and affectionate four-and-a-half-year-old Boxer from Dallas, TX, whose brindle and white coat is as striking as her joyful personality! This large, 50-pound beauty is the perfect blend of energy and love, making her an amazing companion for a family with kids who can match her playful spirit.

Gorda’s heart belongs to her human friends—especially the little ones. She absolutely lights up when she’s around kids, happily bouncing along in their games and making sure everyone’s having a great time! Her favorite activity? Simply being part of the fun, whether it’s playing tag in the yard or lounging close by as the kids wind down. Gorda’s gentle, happy-go-lucky nature makes her a fantastic family dog.

Well-mannered and attentive, Gorda knows a few commands from her obedience training, including “Sit” and “Give You the Hand” (a charming way to say she’ll offer her paw). She’s spayed, crate trained, house-trained, and up-to-date on all vaccinations, so she’s ready to move into her next loving home without a hitch!

Gorda is a social butterfly with other dogs, always eager to make new furry friends at the park or in the neighborhood. When it comes to cats, she’s pretty neutral—she doesn’t bother them and doesn’t seem particularly interested, either. Her easygoing nature with both people and pets makes her adaptable and reliable.

Despite her lively demeanor, Gorda handles being left alone for short periods without any issues. She’s not prone to anxiety, which makes her a laid-back companion when life gets busy. Grooming Gorda is straightforward—just a bath and a good brushing once a month to keep her sleek coat looking its best.

What makes Gorda truly special is how she bonds with her family. She’s not just a pet; she’s a constant companion, always seeking to be near her favorite people and quick to share her joy. Whether it’s snuggling on the couch after an active day or eagerly playing in the yard, Gorda’s loyalty and affection shine through.

If you’re looking for a family-friendly, energetic, and affectionate dog who will bring endless love and laughter into your home, Gorda is ready to meet you!
