Meet Comet, born in 2020. Comet is a sweet, sensitive pup with a playful spirit and a heart full of love. Originally fostered and adopted through MustLuvBoxers, Comet is now searching for a new forever home due to some difficult changes in his current family’s life. He lives in Puyallup, WA.
Comet’s family is currently facing a serious cancer diagnosis that requires them to spend extended time away at the hospital. As a result, Comet has been feeling the stress and anxiety of their absence. They’ve made the incredibly loving decision to find him a new home where he can receive the consistency, attention, and stability he needs to thrive.
Comet is a unique mix: 37.5% American Staffordshire Terrier and 12.5% each of Chow, German Shepherd, Rottweiler, Siberian Husky, and a blend of hound, terrier, sporting, and companion breeds. His personality reflects this mix beautifully—he’s intelligent, loving, active, and deeply connected to his people.
While Comet can be fearful and needs time to warm up, especially with new people, once he trusts you, he is incredibly affectionate and loyal. He’s lived with children, cats, and other dogs, but we recommend all members of a potential adopter’s household meet him in advance to ensure it’s a good fit for everyone.
Comet loves to play! He’s especially fond of dog toys and balls, he’ll even try to play soccer! He enjoys running laps in the house or yard and gets along well with other playful dogs. While he does okay on walks, new people and unfamiliar environments can be intimidating for him, so slow introductions are important.
He’s also an excellent snuggler, happy to relax with his people at the end of the day. He knows several commands including: sit, stay, leave it, shake, lay down, come, bed, and kennel. He’s a quick learner with consistent guidance and routine. He’s kennel trained and comfortable sleeping in his crate, on a dog bed, or even curled up next to you if invited.
Comet is ready for a calm, patient home with someone who will give him the time and love he needs to feel secure. In return, you’ll get a loyal, smart, playful companion who just wants to be with his people.
