We have been working with Sarge for over 2 weeks now and he is progressing very nicely.
Sarge is getting more and more playful every day. Although it is a slow process, crate training is going extremely well. Sarge is very tolerant of younger, playful dogs and is getting to know the cats slowly but surely. He would be better in a cat free home because he wants to play a little too much for the cat's liking. Sarge's sores from laying on concrete are healing very nicely and within a few weeks he will be 100%!! His pure white fur is becoming nicer and softer due to proper diet and exercise. He is also learning "sit" with no problems at all. What a smart pup!!

Update -Sarge is doing great in his foster home. He gets along great with other dogs and the cats also. He enjoys walks in the park but also loves to rest inside the home. He is very calm at all times, never getting too excited about anything! You can see he is a stable, balanced, and happy dog wherever he is! Sarge is housebroken and shows only love and affection towards humans and all other animals.

Sarge is doing very well!

Here are the pictures of Sarge.  I just returned from visiting him at the vet and he's doing great!  He has some sore patches on his back legs, more than likely due to laying on concrete.  My 10 year old niece and I took him out for a brief walk since he's still recovering from surgery yesterday and it's very hot today!  He seems very sweet, good with kids and the staff at Mt Airy Animal Hospital is in love with him!  When we walked him through the waiting room full of dogs and cats, he didn't seem to bat an eye.  I will go visit again on Saturday if he's still there.

Sarge is a nice boy who is just so handsome. The X owners just did not want him anymore and dropped him off at the shelter. Seems like the same old story. People just discard these precious animals as if they have no feelings.

Sarge was at first very depressed at the kennel but is doing better now. Please offer to foster him and make room in your home so we can find out more about him.

The owners just tied him outside the shelter with a note on him with very little information other that what I have stated. Lets show Sarge how real humans behave and give him a great home.

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
