Cassie's leg still has an infection around the metal pin that was placed by the shelter's veterinarian. Our orthopedic specialist x-rayed her again today and her leg is still not strong and healed enough to pull out the pin (which will help the body get rid of the infection). Cassie needs another month of antibiotics and then hopefully we can operate and remove the pin. At this point, her leg will never be back to normal - but we are hoping she will be able to bear her weight on it. Cassie's vet visits are expensive and any donation would be very welcome.

Cassie saw the specialist for the second time today. She still has an infection in her leg from the surgery. The doctor thinks it is starting to heal and with a month of antibiotics, we might avoid a second major surgery. Cassie will still need the pin and wire that was placed in her leg removed after the bone has strengthened.

Cassie is so sweet and one of the thinnest dogs I have seen lately. A few weeks in a high stress shelter can do that to you. Please send a donation to help with her medical bills and sponsor Cassie so we can provide the care she needs!.

Cassie is in foster with a three year old child and she is doing great with her!  Included are some new pictures of Cassie.

Cassie was hit by a car on 10/16 and was found by some kids in the area. Her right femur was broken, and had to be pinned and wired. Cassie then went back to the animal rescue league and was supposed to be put into a foster home. Cassie was active and not confined to her kennel, which caused the wire to break. Poor Cassie now has kennel cough and is not using her leg. Her original owners were found, but Cassie is going to be coming to rescue to find a forever home that will keep her safe. Cassie is scheduled to visit a specialist next week - please sponsor this sweet girl and help her get a chance at a new life!  New pictures and an update will be posted soon.

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.
