Miranda is doing great in her foster home.  She has really blossomed into a happy boxer with a big wiggle!  Miranda loves to play with toys and will require lots of them in her new home.  Since coming into rescue, she has gained some much needed weight and also had her mammary tumors removed.  We were thrilled to learn that all of her tumors were benign.

When I first got Miranda, I was crating her without any problems.  However, something must have scared her because she now refuses to stay in a crate.  She is housebroken and spends her days laying on the couch waiting for me to get home from work.

Miranda has multiple nicknames.  She is a super quick learner and wants to please.  Miranda loves treats - she will sit and wait patiently for one.  She travels great in the car and loves to go for walks.  I sometimes can't believe this is the same girl I transported 8 weeks ago.

Miranda is a very sweet boxer who would love a family and home to call her own.  If you think you have a heart big enough to love this little girl, then please apply today.  She is waiting patiently with a frisbee in her mouth!

Miranda has been in her foster home for six weeks.  Since then, she has learned how to sit, give paw, and high five with both paws after she goes potty.  Her leash manners have really improved and Miranda is now a pleasure to take on walks.  She is currently living with three other boxers.  Miranda would do best in a home without cats or smaller dogs.

Miranda is enjoying the good life and loves to play with toys.  She plays fetch and will keep bringing the ball back to you to throw.  Miranda has come a long way since arriving in rescue.  She is having her spay and mass removal soon and would then love to find a home to call her own.  If you think you have what it takes to win this little girl over, please apply today for Miranda!

Miranda was found as a stray and is estimated to be around 3 years of age.  She arrived at her new foster home today.  Miranda traveled really well in the car.  She is very thin and will be visiting our vet this week to have a mass checked that will need removed once she gains enough weight.  She will also be spayed at that time.

Miranda is an energetic and playful girl.  She does need a lot of work on her leash walking and would benefit from a harness.  Miranda would love to have a fenced yard at her new home.  She enjoys playing with toys and did well with introductions to her new foster brother, a male boxer.  We will post an update soon once we learn more about this sweet girl!

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 3 months 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.
