Austin is now in a new foster home!

11/30/10

Austin's foster family will be moving to Germany in February, so we are looking now for a new foster home, or a forever home, for him to go to! Austin is a wonderful boy - he is great with kids, cats, and other dogs.  He is very easy to acclimate and is a gentle boy.  Please apply today if you can help Austin.  We really need to find him a place within the next few months so he doesn't have to go from a loving home to a kennel.

Hi it's Austin. I am totally enjoying the fall weather and love my evening walks even more when it is brisk (and I am darn good on a leash!). Those who really know boxers are amazed by my lazy ways. I have found a perfect place on the couch where I can look out the window and I am in heaven when I can share that couch with my foster family and they pet me....aaahhhhhhh. I continue not to handle the stairs very well, but can easily jump up on the couch, I will let my ability to do one and not the other remain a mystery. I have yet to meet a dog I didn't like and am quite amused to watch calmly as my foster sister barks at those in our neighborhood. I have not had any problems with cats I have come across and I really enjoy when a child comes up to pet me.  If you want a big lug of a cuddle bug - come on and adopt me, I am so ready for my forever home.

Hi, this is Austin writing from my new foster home. I am an easy going guy who gets along really well with my foster sister, Daisy (who is a bit of a tough cookie) and any other dog that I have come in contact with. I am happy with all the people I have met so far and walk great on a leash. I also appear to be housebroken. I am not quite sure about the stairs in my foster home, but in time I will master that. I don't seem to know basic commands like sit, but easily follow Daisy's lead when being asked to do something. I am a low maintenance love who is always ready for a good hug and pet by my foster family. I am waiting for my new forever home and if I do say so myself, that family will be darn lucky to get me.

Austin is a gentle boy who was found as a stray and is estimated to be around 7 years of age. He was transported to our vet's office yesterday, and did great with everyone he met. Austin also did really well with the Amber, the other boxer he was transported with. Austin has already been neutered, and he will be brought up to date on all other vet care. We are in urgent need of a foster home for Austin so he doesn't have to go to a kennel. This sweet boy seems very even tempered and just wants a home to relax in. Apply today to foster or adopt Austin!

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please first read our Adoption Procedure, by clicking on the link at the top of this page, 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.
