Thanks for giving me the opportunity to foster Wilma!  The two of us are doing fine.  She’s so far a very quiet Boxer and has had no interest in any of the various toys I’ve offered.  We just came back from a short walk up the street and now she is lying on the floor almost asleep as I type this.  During the walk she was taking everything in to the point I couldn’t even get her to focus on a treat.  

I followed your advice regarding walking around the yard when we first got home, followed by a leashed tour of my home.  We’ve spent quiet time in a few different rooms.  She does seem to be completely housebroken.  There were a few times she went to the backdoor so I took her out.  Each time she did a little job. I’ve been giving lots of positive reinforcement for good behavior, along with a few treats.

This is Wilma!  She is a very sweet Boxer who was surrendered by her owners to a shelter because they did not want to take care of her any longer. 

She is a lovebug that wants to cuddle and she loves to be scratched and petted.  She is OK with other males dogs.  We do not know how she is with cats.  

Wilma is housebroken and will make a great addition to any family willing to love her and give her affection.  She would love a fenced in yard (under ground or traditional) so she can run and play! 

Please give Wilma a chance to show you all the great Boxer traits she has to offer!

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
