Luke is now in a foster home with a senior male boxer and a female boxer.  He is loving the fenced yard where he can run and play.  Luke is housebroken and enjoying life out of the kennel.  He is very sweet and we will update his page soon with new pictures.

Luke was neutered and brought up to date on all vet care. He spent the week in a temporary foster home. He seems to be housebroken and very well behaved. Luke has done well with everyone he has met. He is looking for a foster or forever home!

Luke is a beautiful, goofy, young boxer boy that came into the shelter as a stray. He is very friendly and playful and was great with body handling. Luke did not show interest in cats at the shelter, although another cat test should be done before he gets adopted to a home with cats. He seems to like other dogs, but prefers the females. Luke could use some all around obedience and socialization with dogs, but he seems like such a sweet boy. We are in need of a foster home for Luke so we can get to know him better.

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.
