The biopsy results indicate that Zeus has a slight infection, due to possibly starvation or his previous living conditions.  He has gained over 10 lbs and is looking great!  Zeus is neutered and has been brought up to date on all vet care.  He is good with other dogs and previously lived with three cats.  Zeus is looking for a home with boxer or other large breed experience. He is super with everyone he meets, both  young and old.  Zeus enjoys going for car rides and walks.  He does well in the crate.  If you can provide a forever home for Zeus, apply today!

Zeus is doing great in his foster home . He is a joy to have here.  Zeus is housebroken and crate trained.  He is super sweet and loves kids.  Zeus had a great time meeting the kids who were trick-or-treating tonight.  He is gaining weight steadily - it is amazing how quickly they improve when you feed a dog regularly! 

Zeus is super submissive with all four of my dogs, male and female.  He is having an ultrasound in the morning because two of his liver values were elevated .We are hoping this is due to malnutrition or infection.  Once Zeus gets a clean bill of health, he can then get neutered. 

Zeus is a great boxer that has overcome incredible neglect.  He has lived with cats, dogs, and kids.  A home experienced with Boxers would be best for him as he needs a home that can continue his positive reinforcement training.

10/21/12 -

Zeus is being surrendered to rescue because his owners are losing their home. He previously lived with 6 children, 3 cats, a Border Collie, and a bird. It broke our hearts today that the home who gave up Zeus didn't know enough to ask for food for him before he got to this point. He ate the food and treats I gave him in gulps and was searching for more. Zeus is at our vet's office now. He will get his overgrown nails trimmed, treated for fleas, and dewormed.  Zeus is a sad case of neglect, but in spite of that - is as sweet as can be. Zeus just arrived at his new foster home and we will post a new update once he settles in.

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.
