Riley found his way into AABR last year and was soon adopted by a loving family who fell for his charms and teddy bear looks. Bestowed with non stop loving and attention whenever he wanted it and thoroughly spoilt,  the little guy soon turned into a Prince with a royal attitude and developed some possessive behaviors such as not wanting to share his human Mom with anyone else. Not understanding that he wasn't in charge, he continued to be grumpy until his family felt that they could no longer keep him.  Poor Riley found himself back in rescue because the cuteness factor stopped his people from giving him simple rules to live by.

Riley would like to live in an adult only home.  Having now spent time living in a home with a large pack of dogs where everyone knows their place, Riley has been relieved of his crown and now spends his days relaxing in the sunshine and romping with his buddies. He gets loving of course, on his people's terms and when invited. Riley is a great little watch dog, and a sweet companion, He's medium energy so only requires moderate exercise. He is house and crate trained, well behaved for grooming and daily cleaning, rides well in the car and is great at the vet's office.

If you're the kind of family that can offer a dog a few simple rules to live by, then Riley is a great little guy just waiting for his forever 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.
