Update - Shady has been with us for almost four weeks now and starting to put on a little weight. It took a little time for her to trust people again. Was afraid that she was going to be left alone again. She loves to go for walks.

If your looking for a good dog in the prime of her life, that just wants to sit with you and give kisses Shady would be a great friend.

07/09/06 - Shady is now in foster.  We will update her shortly.

6/24/06 - Shady

This is Shady.  She is a female boxer who was abandoned by her owners.  She was named Shady because she was found tied to a tree outside in the shade with no food, water or shelter.  The owners moved and left a family member behind. 

You can see in her eyes the heavy heart she has.  She just needs a nice loving home to live and be happy with.  As soon as we find out more about her we will update her page.  Is there anyone out there willing to give Shady a home of her own?

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please first read the information on our Adoption Procedures, 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. 

Adoptions Fee: $300
