Gus is an owner surrender who needs to find a home because the family has a new baby and no time to train Gus.

Gus is a typical young male boxer who needs a committed home.  With a bit of consistent training and leadership, Gus will be a great family dog.

Gus lives in a small apartment, with a 4 yr old female boxer, and the new baby who is now 8 months old.  Gus is good with other dogs, but we need a home with older kids or none, as Gus is in need of some training.

His owner writes:

Gus needs to find a home where he can run and play most of the day.  He needs an owner that has patience and a lot of love to give.  We are not giving up Gus because we don’t love him, we are giving him up because his current living conditions are not fair to him…He needs more space to run and play.  He also needs a lot of our time and we just do not have that much time anymore since the baby has been born and it is not fair to Gus. 

Do you have the right stuff for Gus?

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
