Bobbi (aka Minnie) is now in foster care and there’s only one
word to describe this girl – she is
CHARMING!!! She is absolutely a heartbreaker with the
sweetest little face, the most soulful brown eyes and the longest eye lashes
ever. Every part of this girl is tiny and sweet – the tiny is obvious which
is why she’s now called Minnie – she scampers around the house like a little
mouse! And to add to this package, she taught herself to use the pee pads,
or as I now refer to them, the ‘mouse’pads, so adorable, great personality
and smart – what a package. She's full of love, gets up on her back legs
and dances for attention, and if ignored (I dare you to ignore this face)
she has mastered the perfect 'puffy face 'that will melt your heart. When
she's tired, she'll push her little face into your neck and fall asleep.
Charming, just completely charming! Please help with the cost of her
surgery. She will be big enough for surgery in 2 weeks. PLEASE HELP!!!

- Bobby
Bobby is one of the new designer breeds. She is a MALTIPOO and 10 weeks old..
That is a combination of a Maltese and a Poodle.
Bobby was sold to a high end pet store and they had him examined by their
vet. She had a heart murmur so an Echocardiogram was performed by a Board
Certified cardiologist.
Bobby was diagnosed with PDA.
Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) is a heart problem that occurs soon after
birth in some puppies. In PDA, there is an abnormal circulation of blood
between two of the major arteries near the heart. Before birth, the two
major arteries
a blood vessel called the ductus arteriosus, which is an essential part of
the fetal circulation. After birth, the vessel is supposed to close within a
few days as part of the normal changes occurring in the pup's circulation.
In some pups, however, the ductus arteriosus remains open (patent). This
opening allows blood to flow directly from the aorta into the pulmonary
artery, which can put a strain on the heart and increase the blood pressure
in the lung arteries.
So off to rescue. At least this store did not choose to put him to sleep.
She will have surgery in a few weeks and if all goes well he should live a normal
life!!!
This surgery will be done at a 50% reduction in the bill but will still cost
us at least $2000 - $2500. Please, please help Bobby by donating.

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 |
