Duke is 9 ½ years young. He is the perfect example of “you are only as old as you feel”. Duke thinks he is still 2 years old. He loves to play, enjoys walks, being with his family and being one of the guys and hanging out. Obviously I don’t need to mention how handsome he is, his picture clearly tells that story very nicely.

He is being surrendered because his family of 9 ½ years feel they don’t have the time to devote to him and he would be better with a family who does. A guy like Duke doesn’t require a lot, and deserves to have it all!!! Duke is an easy going, gentle boy. He is on the small side for a male Boxer, at 60-65 pounds. His exposure to other dogs is somewhat limited. On walks he likes to visit with the other dogs in the neighborhood, but he has never lived with another dog.  He has lived with children and a cat.

He’s a happy, healthy guy; loves to cuddle. He has been well cared for, vetted regularly and will be a wonderful addition for one very lucky family. He is an easy boy looking for family who will love and cherish him.

He deserves to have a family who will appreciate all the wonderful things a senior Boxer brings to a home!! Thanks for considering Duke

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
