Meet Benny. Benny's human died so Ben, along with his terrier friend were surrendered to a local shelter by the next of kin.

Benny slipped out of the shelter and was running so scared for weeks. Thank goodness he is now safe but Ben is sad you can see it in his eyes and hear it in his heart.

I thought what could I say about Benny that may differ from another in need. Nothing! His sad story is the same sad story we hear day by day. Owner dies, family no longer wants, they are having a baby, someone’s allergic and the list goes on. The saddest part is the eyes you look into, the broken soul, the hurt heart. We tell them we will find them a life long home to call there own and we do, we owe it to all of them!

Benny is 3- 4 years old, in need of some good meals but medically in good shape. He has a very mild manner. He seems to form bonds easily. When I picked him up from the shelter within minutes he was laying his head on my shoulder as to say “Oh, thank you.” Benny is unsure of his new surroundings and will need someone that has patients and understanding to introduce him to the world. He is currently in foster with 2 small breed foster brothers, and a 4 year old boy. We will update you as he settles in to his foster home. Will you be the one to sing the famous Michael Jackson song to Ben? “Ben, the two of us need look no more, we both found what we were looking for. With a friend to call my own, I'll never be alone, and you, my friend, will see, you've got a friend in me.”

PLEASE apply to give Benny his life long home today… because you found a friend in Ben!

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.
