Samson has settled in well back at his foster home.  He really enjoys the company of his foster sister, a female boxer.  Samson loves to run and play in his fenced yard.  He is an energetic boy who can sometimes play rough.  Samson walks well on leash.  He travels great in a car and has very good manners in the house.  Samson's foster mom indicates he is a sweet boy who is always giving kisses.  If you are interested in providing a forever home for Samson, apply today.

Samson has been returned to rescue and he just arrived at his previous foster home.  During a temporary stay at our boarding kennel, he quickly became a favorite of some of the workers there.  Samson also went on a walk with one of our volunteers and was very well behaved on leash.  We will post a new update once he gets settled back in at his foster home.

Samson is continuing to improve in his foster home. He has mastered the sit command and is going in and out of the dog door.  Samson follows his foster mom around all day and does well in the crate at night.  He is gaining weight and loves ice cream!  Samson is a great cuddler.  He does play rough with other dogs and can be on the dominant side, but he is getting along well with his female foster sister.  If you are interested in adopting Samson, apply today!

Samson is doing well at his foster home.  He is currently living with a female boxer.  Samson is eating well and is sleeping in his crate at night.  He is learning his basic commands and walks well on leash.  Samson has learned how to go in and out through his dog door.  He is a very sweet boy who loves attention from people.

Samson has been neutered and brought up to date on all vet care.  He weighs 44 lbs and still needs to gain some weight.  Samson was transported to his new foster home this weekend, where he will be living with a female boxer.  We will post an update once his foster family gets to know Samson better.

5/04/15 -

Samson came into the shelter when his owners could not care for him.  He was underweight, but has already gained back a few pounds with just a good diet.  Samson is a very friendly boy who has lots of energy.  He would do best with an active family that has a fenced yard.  Samson would also benefit from some obedience classes to help him learn some basic manners.  He is approximately 2 years old and is great with other dogs.  Samson will be arriving soon at his new foster home. We will post more information once he gets settled 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 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.
