Update - Droopy is a happy, go- lucky dog who is patiently waiting on his forever home. He's very charming, in addition to good looking. He may look a lot like a Shar Pei but he did inherit a lot of Boxer traits. For a dog that has spent a year in the kennel, he has adjusted very well. His owners left him at the kennel when they were forced to move from their home to a relative's home. They intended the situation to be temporary but, after a year decided it was not fair to Droopy to continue to live at the kennel.

Its time for someone to take this wonderful boy into their home where he will get the love and attention he deserves. He is crate trained and house broken. He knows sit, lay down, stay, and will do anything for a treat including walk across a room on his hind legs which is very impressive.

He is great with other dogs and good with children. Droopy is a sweet boy with a lot of personality. Upon meeting him, you'll fall in love.

Droopy is a 3 year old Shar Pei/Boxer mix who was left at a kennel a year ago because his owners could not provide the care he needed. A volunteer with AABR met him at the kennel and fell in love with his sweet disposition. AABR is taking Droopy into our rescue program to find him the home he finally deserves. He knows his basic commands and is reported to get along well with other dogs. Droopy will be neutered and vetted this week. He will then be looking for a foster or forever home! Please offer to give Droopy a chance at a loving home!

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.
