Miley has been in foster care for a month now and she is starting to come out of her shell. She does not have a mean or nippy bone in her body.  She is somewhat shy and withdrawn. Miley could use a patient adopter who is willing to work with her on building confidence and courage. Her trust in people is low at this time. Living with other dogs has definitely helped her overcome some of her shyness and she loves to play and cuddle with them. When placed on a bed, she loves to be petted and snuggle next to you. She is gentle with kids and other dogs, and is now completely housetrained. Miley loves her crate -it is her safety zone. We have yet to hear her bark. If you have the patience and desire to change this girls life around, please apply today to adopt her!

Miley has been settling into her new foster home. This girl is very sweet and gentle, but is extremely shy of people. She is getting used to everyday noises such as the TV, dishwasher, and phone that are foreign to her. Miley shares our home with 3 dogs, and she is very happy to be around and interact with them. She is very playful, and loves to run around with the 'pack'. She is fond of soft stuffed toys and will fling them around in the air and run proudly with them in her mouth. The dogs are helping Miley come out of her shell, but she would benefit from a home that has a consistent routine and that can provide plenty of patience, love and understanding. She is housebroken and enjoys spending time in her crate where she feels safe and secure. Miley has been though her share of hardships and would love to spend the rest of her years being a carefree dog. Please apply to adopt this great girl and give her the second chance she deserves!

Miley was surrendered by a local puppy mill.  She is super sweet, but very shy. Miley is slowly learning to trust humans. She has come to trust her temporary foster mom and loves to be around her boxer housemates. It is obvious that Miley had a rough start in life and is looking for a home that will care for her and provide lots of love. If you are considering adopting please give this girl the second chance she deserves.

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.
