Jess is now in foster care and she's just wonderful.  Jess is housebroken, is left alone for a full workday and does not touch a thing.  Jess is a fairly laid back girl - and completely non-threatening.  She is in foster care with a very cranky old lady boxer girl and Jess has even won her heart over.  There does not seem to be a person that Jess has met so far that she has not wanted to cuddle and play with - she's always happy!  She does however have the saddest eyes but I'll let you in on a secret - I think she uses that sweet face to sucker you into loving her even more!

Jess would do fine in almost any home.  She loves men and women equally.  She's not convinced that she's not quite a lap dog so perhaps older kids, steady on their feet, would be best to live with Jess.  She's great with other dogs.

We do want you to know that Jess appears to have food allergies.  Once this was discovered, we immediately got her medical attention and she's now on medication and a non-allergic diet. Our vet believes that her need for medication will be short lived however she will need to be on the special food forever (easily obtained).  Other then this, Jess is in perfect health.

f the dog you want to share your home with is young, energetic, happy and loving, then Jess is the girl for you.  She's waiting for a loving family to call her own.

Here are a couple of pictures of Jess....she is a darling girl.   She goes tomorrow for her spaying, and her vet exam.   I brought her into the shop and cleaned her ears, she was wonderful. That's a big deal in my book.   I love the picture with the lower teeth showing, it's too cute.

She's sweet, and friendly.  She met the guys who came to install our coal stove, and she was wonderful.  One of them looked like Santa, white beard and all.   She liked him a lot, I think she told him to bring her a family for Christmas.

12/8/06 - Jess

The shelter called and asked us to take Jess. They pulled her off the euthanasia list 3 times. All the staff loved her. Being a boxer mix (a cute one) did not help get her a home.

Jess is now safe with us and EVERYONE who meets her loves her!!! She is just a happy, happy dog.

We will get better pictures. This one does not show how cute she really 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. 

Adoptions Fee: $300
