Petra is an affectionate, loyal companion that always wants to be by your side and give you kisses. She knows most commands, is housebroken and crate trained. She is a great "watch" dog, which means she will tell you when you are about to receive a visitor.

She loves playing fetch and running outside, she has not met a toy she doesn't like. She loves to take rides in the car. Maggie is looking for a home where she can get attention and curl up next to you. She is looking for someone who has lots of time to be a good leader to her.

Maggie is a loving girl who needs someone who can be a committed owner. Maggie is a mix. We think boxer/lab. She has a wonderful spirit. Maggie has been bounced around her whole life. It is time that someone take her and love her and let her know this is forever.

Petra, was adopted from us a year ago. She has been living with a male lab. Her owner is getting ready to have a baby and is giving her back to us.  That's commitment...

We are out of foster homes right now so Petra is in a kennel waiting for her "Real" forever home.  Her old foster home remembers her to be no trouble at all.

If you are committed for life, Petra will be waiting for you.

Meet Petra! This little girl is full of love and kisses and wiggles! She came to us from the Somerset County Shelter, and they drove her to our kennel because they liked her so much and wanted us to find her a good home. I met Petra this morning, and she is so cute! She is going to make someone a great companion! We know that she loves baths and rides well in a car. She is good with other dogs. We will post more once we know her better! Please contact us about Petra!

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please first read the information on our Adoption Procedures, then fill out an online application.

Boxers and Applicants are not matched on a first come, first served basis. Not all applications are approved. On average, it takes between a week and 1 month to adopt a Rescue Boxer to an approved applicant, depending on your personal circumstances and flexibility.  

Matching Boxers suitable for placement with younger children, other dogs, cats, and special needs, yours and theirs, increases the application review time and adoption time.  

And yes, we realize that the Boxer you may have your heart set on, may be adopted before you're approved.   Should your first choices all ready found their forever home, we want you to advise us as to other dogs you are interested in at Adoptions@AdoptABoxerRescue.com .  Or let us suggest a few that we feel will match your home.  That is what we are good at.   And be happy for the ones that have been placed... and know that there are way too many fantastic dogs waiting in their place.

Our non-profit organization is wholly comprised of hard-working volunteers whose only reward is seeing our wonderful Boxers placed in loving, permanent homes and given another chance for a happy life. Our process may seem slow, but if you are patient, we will try to provide you with a devoted, loving companion - a Boxer.

We hope you feel that the right Boxer is worth waiting for. 

Adoptions Fee: $300
