Meet Oliver, the newest addition to the AABR family. Oliver at only 4 months old was surrendered because his family did not have time for a puppy and was leaving him for 12 hours a day alone in a crate.

Oliver is like a baby, they need consent care and training and socialization. They are very impressionable to social influences. If they have good early experiences with men, women, children, cats, and other dogs, he is likely to accept them throughout life, and needs as many kinds of social events and influences as possible.

Are you ready for what a puppy needs? Do you have time in your life for exercise, training, socialization and love? Do you have the patience to raise a puppy? Are you ready for Oliver?

Oliver is a typical baby boy full of boxer wiggles. He LOVES to play with other dogs, likes cats and lights up when in the company of children. He knows sit and gives paw. His ideal home would have someone who has time to spend with a puppy, another dog to help burn up energy, and children to be his friend. Is that your home? If so apply to adopt Oliver today.

New info:  When we were asked to take Oliver in, we were told he might be deaf.  He has since been evaluated, and he is a totally hearing boxer! We also found out is real name is Herbie, and he answers to it.

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please first read our Adoption Procedure, by clicking on the link at the top of this page, 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.
