Rex is a 4 yr old brindle male who came from a puppy mill.  He is good with other dogs and children of all ages.  Rex has been neutered and brought up to date on all vet care. 

His foster mom reports that Rex is a total sweetheart!  He is very handsome and completely crate trained.  Rex is a wonderful dog who loves giving kisses and will greet you with the wiggle of his tail.  He is doing very well with the two other boxers in his foster home, a 1 yr old high energy male and a 6 yr old female. 

Rex is making improvements with his leash manners.  We took him for a short walk around the block today and he did very well.  We are working to familiarize him with living in a house - how to lay on a couch, how to snuggle, getting used to carpet, stairs, how to play, etc.  Rex needs a family that will continue to help him learn about the good life and who will be patient during the transition.  Rex wants to please, is very food motivated for training, and is a total love!

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.
