More: We adopted Pearl from a rescue a couple of years ago. Like all Boxers, she is a slapstick comedian. Her acrobatic/ overly dramatic stunts, slobbery affection, and ebullient personality make us laugh several times per day. She relies on her sister Ruby (a pit bull-border collie mix) to be her ears. She has an amazing ability to pee standing on her front legs. I have a photo to prove it. She’s so stunning, strangers often stop us to say, “What a gorgeous dog!” (Or “She looks like Petey from The Little Rascals.”)
