Jake is currently in a foster home in New York City, but he is not adjusting well to the hectic city environment. His foster dad feels Jake would be much happier in a quieter environment. He previously lived with a female boxer and would love to have a dog companion in his new home. If you can provide a forever home for Jake, apply today!

4/19/11 -

This is mother and son, Roxy and Jake. They are being surrendered to rescue due to a death in the family and a change in living situation. Following the death of his parents, the owner has to move out of his house by next Tuesday into a home that does not allow dogs.

Jake will be neutered soon. Both dogs are well cared for, in good shape, and up to date on vaccines. Neither of them are used to being crated. Up until recently, they were used to the mother being home all day and watching them while the son worked. The owner has stated that he thinks they will be fine being separated as they did not really live with each other for years. Both Roxy and Jake are good with other dogs and unknown with cats. When the volunteer went to meet them, they said hello and went and laid on their sofa. Both were very well behaved around a new person. Jake is in urgent need of a foster home. If you are interested in fostering or adopting Jake, 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.
