Here's a new picture of Buster with his girlfriend.  They love to play and then they need their rest...  LOL

9/16/07 - Buster Brown

Intake Reason - Dropped in a rural kill shelter in Ohio at night.

Buster Brown (or Babes as I call him) LOVES people!! He hasn't met one he doesn't like or who doesn't like him. He loves to play with my parents' white female boxer non-stop; they're perfect playmates and they're both petite at 40 some lbs and around the same age. My aunt's older male boxer (9 yrs) and he got along OK but really weren't on the same page. Sometimes age really does matter. He loves playing and chewing with his toys, also loves being around people. He goes to work with me everyday to an Assisted Living community and he makes new friends daily. He's really quite handsome too with white socks, kind of a white collar, a little white on his face and a little white mark on top of his head. Also, he's potty trained with no accidents.

While I was away he went to the kennel and made many new friends. Because of his energy level and being a bit awkward/clumsy, he'd be best with older children. Also, I'd recommend a fenced yard (not required) and a family committed to taking him for a long walk daily. While he knows sit and we're working on stay, he'd benefit from a basic obedience class. He's a people pleaser and would like to do what you want him to. He walks pretty well on leash. The hardest thing is getting the leash on him because as soon as he sees it he starts the boxer wiggle and he's dancing all around excited to go. He's a love....perfect for a family looking for a young boxer boy who loves to play and be active.

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
