Lady is now in foster with a young male boxer, and she is settling in well.  We will update her page soon once her foster dad gets to know her a little better.

We have discovered from a previous foster placement that Lady can easily jump a 4 foot fence, so she will need to go to a home that is willing to train her on an invisible fence, or that has a tall, secure fence in their yard.  Lady does need some work on her leash manners.  She seems to have a very strong prey drive, so we are recommending a home without cats at this time.

Lady is definitely a "people dog."  She has a really sweet disposition and just loves to be around people.  Lady wants to meet everyone she passes while she is out for a walk.  Everyone who has met her has just loved her!  When Lady is playing and has something in her mouth, she has a very soft release if you want to take it from her.  Lady is very playful and loves squeaky toys!  Thank you for your interest in this sweet, young girl!

Lady was surrendered to the shelter because her owner wanted her to find a home with somebody who could provide more time and attention. Lady is 1.5 years old. She did great with her dog test at the shelter. Her previous owners also indicated that she played well with other dogs in their neighborhood. Lady lived with a 6 month old child and she is used to having a fenced yard. She loves to fetch and wrestle. Her owners indicate that she is crate trained and completely housebroken. She is used to being crated during the work day. The volunteers that transported Lady indicated that she is a beautiful, friendly girl. She is very curious, but responds well to redirections. Lady is a bouncing, wiggling girl with lots of potential. She gives lots and lots of kisses. Lady is currently at a kennel, and is in need of a foster or forever home. Apply today!

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.
