Damu is still waiting for his forever home.  His foster mom indicates that he has been the perfect foster dog. He went to his vet appointment last week and got a great report! Damu has gained 15 pounds since coming into rescue. He still tested positive for heartworm, but has made a lot of improvement. He will continue on monthly heartworm preventative, and will be rechecked in 6 months.

Damu is a gentle and easy going boy. He is very affectionate and loves attention and belly rubs. His foster mom indicates that he has been such a joy to have in her home.  Damu is friendly with everybody he meets. He listens and obeys commands well. He would do well in a home as an only dog so he could have all your attention, or he can be placed with other dogs.  Apply today to adopt Damu!

Damu has received his first heartworm treatment and is now in his foster home. His foster mom reports that Damu is a gentle, loving boy. He is eating well and gaining weight. Damu has been great with his two boxer foster sisters. He loves having a fenced backyard. His foster mom feels that Damu would do best in a home without cats. He just wants a warm bed, food, and a loving hand to guide him. Damu is going to be a wonderful boy for a lucky family!

Damu was surrendered to the shelter when his owners moved. When updating his vet care, the shelter determined that Damu is heartworm positive. He recently started his treatment and will be going into a foster home with two female boxers. Damu is reported to be great with other dogs - the shelter had been using Damu to dog test for them since he was so easygoing with others. Damu has wonderful manners and is great on leash. We will update his page soon with new pictures. If you are not in a position to foster or adopt, please consider donating towards his vet care. Thank you for your interest in Damu!

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.
