Meet Winston! He is a little 6 month old Boston Terrier that was surrendered to AABR from a puppy mill because he is deaf.  Although he is deaf, Winston has no idea he is any different than the other dogs. Winston is his foster mom's shadow, and he follows her everywhere she goes. He has been settling into his foster home and learning the ropes. Winston is working on house-training and crate-training. Because Winston can't hear verbal commands, he is being taught a series of visual commands that he is picking up well.

Winston needs to go to a home with a resident dog who he can take cues from. He loves all people and is being fostered with other dogs. Because Winston is deaf, a physically fenced in yard is required. Winston would benefit greatly from obedience and sign language training.

Before you consider adopting a puppy, please keep in mind that puppies are a lot of work! You'll need to thoroughly puppy proof your house, bring him/her to puppy obedience classes, and socialize him/her with all sorts of people, places, & animals. The more time and energy you 'put into' a pup, the happier you'll be as they get older.  If you have an appropriate home for Winston, 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.
