Update - Champ is a very handsome, very obedient boxer. I am very impressed at how much he listens to me considering he just met me yesterday! He knows sit, down, paw and stay- he is also housebroken. He might even know more!

He's been tossed from person to person for quite a while now so he's a bit nervous at this point, but with proper exercise and a calm steady home I know he would calm down. He's very sweet and loves to give me kisses and lay at my feet. Since he is nervous I have been crating him when I'm not home so he can feel safe and secure in his new environment. He is very athletic so good exercise everyday is essential. He would be an ideal dog for agility trials!!

He is getting along nicely with my other dog and my cat as well. I do not recommend a home with young children, since at this point he's nervous and seems to be scared of fast moving hands.  Poor boy! He's! been through a lot...

Due to unforeseen circumstances with my home, Champ is going to a home with 3 or 4 other dogs in York, PA tonight. Once they have more information about him, we will update this page. I hope you find Champ to be a nice fit for your home!

7/11/07 - Champ

This is Champ! He was adopted out 2 years ago to what we believed would be his forever home. Through no fault of Champ's he was given back to AABR because they suddenly did not have time for this wonderful dog! He is a very good boy and would be happy in a home where people are home more than not. He loves to be next to you and needs to be part of the family. He is good with kids, dogs and people.

We want a quiet home for Champ to he can relax and settle in to a loving home. We are looking for a home with older children so it is no too chaotic as with little kids.

Please give Champ the forever home he thought he had! Committed forever homes only apply for this wonderful boy.

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
