• “My name is Ali, after the famous boxer. I can be a little moody towards other dogs but I’m working on that. I love running & playing chase! Swimming scares me but I love cooling off on the edge of ponds. I am older girl but I still love training & exploring! I love going to my moms work & I currently have 4 other dogs friends (which is the most I’ve ever had), so one day I’ll bring them with me!“

  — Hunter K.

• “I love to run and be chased by the big dogs. Mom said I can't play with the little dogs because I sometimes scare them with my big mouth. I don't know how I'm a big boy mom tells me but I'm also baby size whatever that means. I love playing with my wife Jazmine 😍 my mom is my favorite person.“

  — IRINA M.

• “I’m a 12-year-old lab/boxer mix. I love French fries, sticking my head out the window on car rides and squirming around on the floor like a dead bug. I’m a super sweet and friendly with people, but I don’t really like other dogs besides my sister.“

  — Kristen P.

  — Melody M.

• “I’m Ali, like Muhammad, since I’m a boxer. 3 years old and I love to play with my sister. I’m really gentle and I like to be outside but don’t leave me out there alone. I’d prefer if the door was left open so that I can go in and out at my leisure.“

  — Tametra L.

• “Ali is a rescue. She is a ball of energy. Thankfully she is cute bc I’m not so sure she has the brains. Lol“

David's dedication to providing safe and enjoyable spaces for dogs to play, explore, and socialize is evident in his unwavering commitment to Sniffspot.
