Tyson has now been in one of our kennels for an entire month. He is hopeful that the right home will find him soon. Tyson really is a big teddy bear and has been perfectly behaved at the kennel. He LOVES to go for walks, but is also content to just hanging out if that's what you want to do. He's available for either foster or adoption. Please help us get him back into a home! The new photos are from a recent visit by one of our volunteers. Big T won him over completely!

Tyson is in need of a new foster home.  He would do best in a home with large dog experience and no small children.  Tyson will be going to a boarding kennel until a foster or forever home is found.  If you are interested in Tyson, apply today!

Big Tyson was an owner surrender to one of our local shelters. The note on his paperwork said, "Mom could no longer care for him".

Tyson is in temporary foster with me while we get his vetting done and then he will be moving on to a longer term foster. He is a complete teddy bear - and almost as big as one! This bog boy lumbers down the street with a rolling gate that reminds me very much of a bear. He is reported to be good with kids and has spent time with two of them today (ages 10 & 12). He did well in his dog test (http://youtu.be/0cnX9-olX1c but we have not tried him out with cats yet.

In rescue, we are fairly used to seeing neglected dogs come in who are too thin. Allowing a dog to get this fat is just as bad. We're hoping to see weight loss now that he has someone doing portion control. Tyson is getting several short walks a day (which he really enjoys) and time to play in the yard. Somewhere under the flubber is a lean, athletic boxer just waiting for his chance to shine!

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.
