Diesel is a fabulous dog. He obviously had a hard time of things before he came to rescue, but he doesn't let that get him down. He got through his first round of heartworm treatment with no problems and will be getting his final treatment this week.  Diesel is just a total snuggle bug. He loves to go on walks, chase a ball, and snuggle. He gets along great with his foster siblings. Diesel is a calm boxer who likes to sleep at the foot of the bed. He is good with children and other dogs. Please consider giving Diesel a forever home for him to call his own.

Wow, what a cutie! Diesel is a beautiful, petite male boxer. He is settling in nicely at his foster home. He is a bit skinny, but has a great appetite so he should fill out shortly. Diesel does great on the leash and is acclimating to the crate. He knows his basic commands and is relatively quiet. Diesel likes to get treats and cuddle next to you. He has the biggest brown eyes that just melt your heart. Please consider being Diesel’s forever family. 

Included below is a short video of Diesel showing off some of his commands:

When Diesel was at our vet's office to be neutered, we discovered that he is heartworm positive. Diesel really needs your help - we do not have a foster home for him to go to and a kennel is not a good place to recover from heartworm treatment. Diesel is looking for a quiet setting where he can be rested following his injections. Heartworms are not contagious between dogs. Diesel is great with both children and adults. Please apply today to help with a foster home for Diesel!

Diesel is a 3 year old boy who has been at the shelter several times because the owners continue to let him run loose. He was previously hit by a car and had to have a pin inserted in his hip. Diesel will be coming to rescue soon and we are in need of a foster home. Diesel has lived with children of all ages (toddlers to teenagers). He is good on leash and is housebroken. Diesel previously lived as an only dog, but he has done great with the other dogs he has been introduced to at the shelter. If you are interested in fostering or adopting Diesel, put your application in 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.
