Elvis is being surrendered to rescue because the 2 year old child in the home has chronic asthma and is allergic to Elvis. His owner writes "My son has chronic asthma and is allergic to Elvis’ saliva. Elvis cannot be around my son because he gives a lot of kisses and his saliva makes him break out in bad hives. We are only able to have him around us once my son goes to bed and that is for an hour or 2 in the evening"

Elvis needs a lot of love and physical contact, which is not possible anymore in his current home. His family feels that Elvis would be much happier in a home with people that can spend more time with him.

Elvis knows all of his basic commands and is completely housebroken. He has been trained to an invisible fence. Elvis lives with another 6.5 yr old boxer who apparently is more restrained with kisses around the baby.  Elvis is wonderful with children. He is neutered and up to date on all vet care. Elvis is a very affectionate and loving boy who is looking for a home with somebody there often for him.

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.
