Bristol is the last female of
the litter looking for a forever family. We aren't sure yet if she is
deaf, so we want to make sure she has a home with a secure fenced yard and a
male dog to guide her in case she is. We will continue to test her
with sounds. Even if she is deaf, do not let that keep you from
applying! Deaf dogs are very easy to work with and train. We
will post more information soon about Bristol. If your home can
accommodate a puppy of this age, please apply today to adopt this beautiful
girl.

We welcome the "Nascar Ten" into AABR! Mom,
Jasmine, and Dad,
Kane, were picked up for their
transport into rescue two weeks ago. The volunteer transporting them
quickly realized that Jasmine had already gone into labor and that there was
a good chance she would deliver soon. There was a high speed race to
get Jasmine safely to her foster home. This driving would have made
any Nascar driver proud, which is how we came up with the theme for this
litter. Even flying down the highway, though, two male puppies (Petty
and Racer) could not wait and were born in the back of our transporter's
vehicle. The remaining eight puppies were then delivered by the foster
mom who had been waiting to whelp the litter. Bristol is a solid white
female who just turned two weeks old (she is on the left in the photos).
We do not know yet if she will be hearing or deaf, but we should be able to
determine that over the next couple of weeks. All the puppies will be
available to go to their forever homes when they reach 8 weeks of age. We
have learned that both mom and dad have amazing temperaments (and are both
available for adoption as well!!). Although it will be tempting to
want a puppy just based on their cute pictures alone, please think carefully
and make sure your home is an appropriate match. We are looking for
families who are home often enough to take a puppy out every few hours for
housetraining. We would love to place these puppies into boxer
experienced homes that will be able to work on training and socialization.
They would love a secure place to run and play. If you do not have the
time, energy, and patience for a puppy this age, please consider one of our
other wonderful boxers - we have many available from young to seniors! |

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.
Not every home is
the right match for a boxer, and 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 at your home visit of other dogs you are interested... 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.
