Champ desperately needs a COMMITTED lifetime home. This poor guy has been bounced around, and it is not his fault. Champ has been returned to rescue and is now sitting at a kennel. He is housebroken, good with other dogs, and just a loyal companion. He needs the right home--someone who has owned a rescued boxer before and understands their needs. Champ needs a quiet home without a lot of unexpected visitors popping in and out. He needs patience and understanding that his life has been totally turned upside down, and some time to adjust. Once he does adjust, he is your absolute best friend for life--it is a shame that the committed feeling has not yet been reciprocated to him by a human. This is a wonderful dog. The foster home that had him before reports that he got along beautifully with their  boxer, and really adjusted well into their home after a little time and patience. They are unfortunately not able to take him back into foster for personal reasons, so Champ has to go to a kennel. PLEASE be a committed, forever home for Champ. Give this boy a chance and he will show you a lifetime of love and the most loyal companionship.

Update - Champ was recently returned to rescue and he is back in his foster home. He gets along great with his foster brother (a one year old male boxer). Champ would love to have another dog in his new home to play and wrestle with. He is completely housebroken and has full run of a portion of the house during the work day with no problems.

Champ is looking for a boxer-savvy and confident leader in his new home. He is an independent boy who would love to find a forever home that can continue his training. Apply today if you are interested in adopting Champ!

Intake Reason - Champ was an owner surrender to the city shelter.

Update - Meet Champ, the gentle giant, as his foster parents like to call him. Champ is a gorgeous, young brindle boy who was dumped at the city shelter. He is doing great in his foster home with another male boxer, and is a very nice boy. Champ is tall and in great shape.

We will update more soon, but in the meantime, please apply to adopt this beautiful boxer!

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.
