Abby is doing great! She is very gentle when taking treats out of your hand and knows the "sit" command very well, along with "down", "stay" and "come". Abby is lacking some socialization skills with other animals, but we believe with some work that Abby can overcome this. She loves to play with toys and her favorite toy is a yellow ball that squeaks--when she carries that around her nub just wags and wags. She loves to be outside and loves to run and will retrieve a ball and bring it back to you when playing fetch. Abby likes to be with you no matter where you are, but she can also entertain herself with her toys. She does great in the house when left alone with absolutely no problems and really enjoys going for a ride in the car or going for a walk. Abby is a real sweetheart and has so much to offer. Won't you consider adopting Abby?

8/2/10 -

Abby was found as a stray. She is a very sweet boxer who knows some basic commands and rides great in the car. Abby is housebroken, friendly, and loves to play with her squeaky toys. Wherever you are, that's where Abby wants to be! More updates to come as we learn more about this adorable girl from her foster 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.
