11/03/08 Update - Smokey is being
returned to rescue due to a change in living arrangements at his home. He is
described as a wonderful boy who is great with kids, cats, and other dogs.
Smokey would love to have a fenced yard to play in. He is housebroken, walks
well on a leash, and loves to meet new people. He gets along great with the
two other dogs in his home. Apply today to adopt Smokey!

Smokey has really adapted
well to living with 2 other boxers. He is such a nice, lovable dog and
rarely will he take no for an answer. I must confess, un leader like as it
is, If he's in the mood to be petted, he'll nuzzle you, or whimper, or both
until you give in! He's really a wonderful boy overall. Smokey has never
shown any aggression toward people, kids, cats or other dogs. He will be a
wonderful addition to your family!

- Smokey
Smokey is a happy, wiggly boy looking for a new home.
His family moved out of state (apparently one of those states where dogs
aren’t allowed) and didn’t take him with them. They left him at a very
crowded shelter where his fate would have been fatal. He is very, very
sweet, so happy to have the least little bit of attention, walks pretty well
on his lead, is reported to be good with other dogs, kids, people. He rides
beautifully in the car. This guy is a keeper, he deserves better.
Smokey is currently in a foster home and we will update his information with
more details soon. Thank you for your interest in Smokey.

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 |
