Update -Austin continues to do well in a caring environment. He has gained much needed weight and strength. His weight has gone from 39 lbs to 56lbs. Austin is very well behaved around people and other dogs. He goes along with his foster brother to obedience training every week and is so happy to be around the action. Austin loves car rides more than anything. When he is walked in the front of the house, he wiggles and barks by the car door!

He is really a happy and very content boy.

7/2/06 - Austin

Austin was found as a stray and was extremely underweight (40 lbs). Since coming into rescue he has put on needed weight and is much stronger. His spirits seemed to perk up as soon as we left the shelter.

Austin proves that good things come in small packages. He loves to be around people and snuggle his head on you. He is very gentle and good with children.

Austin is not a rough and tumble boxer. He will be excellent in a home with people who want a boxer, but may be put off by their high energy.

Austin is housebroken and is very good at letting you know when he needs out. He is happy to sleep on his blankie on the floor and is also crate trained. He does love to eat and has filled out nicely since he is in rescue.

Austin deserves a loving forever home. All you have to do is look in his big eyes and you can see what a loving gentle boy he is!

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.
