Bonnie	Willie	Together Again!

09/20/06 - In Foster!

Monday I put Bonnie on a leash out  in the front with me while I worked and she followed me around not letting me out of her sight accept ,when I opened the back of the truck she hopped in and went to sleep in the back seat .  = )

Tuesday was mow the lawn day.  Thankfully she has no reaction to the lawn mower unlike my other two.  Sooo I felt like a multi task commercial, '' How to mow your lawn and walk your dog".  As I'm mowing , I wonder where is she? When I look behind me,  there she is following me up and down the lawn. = )

Today was weedwack day.  To dangerous to have her following me.  So I put her in the room, locked the gate and shut the back door.  When I was done I came in and she's trotting around the house.  She had somehow managed to unhitch it. Everything was fine.  She doesn't do that when I'm at work.  I figure she sees me leave for work, but she knew I was in the back yard... and that's why she did it.  She doesn't let me out of her sight,,,    = ) 

I'm giving her the pumpkin and it seems to be working.  We're working on getting some weight on her.  Its nice to she her finely curled up on the dog bed.

She's a good girl. = )

Intake Reason - Bonnie and Willie were brought to a Vet's office to be euthanized. They're family decided that a house full of kids and a hectic life didn't leave much time for these senior dogs. The vet refused to euthanize two healthy beautiful animals so they ended up at the shelter.

Bonnie is only 8 yrs old and Willie is 10 yrs old. They are both underweight but Bonnie is really doing badly in the kennel situation. She is refusing to eat and badly needs a foster or adoptive home. It would be nice to keep them together, but being realistic they will be placed separately. They both passed their temperament tests with flying colors, and probably will be pretty athletic seniors once we get some weight back on them and in the comfort of their hero's home.

Will you be their heroes?

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
