Sampson is doing so well in his foster home. Here he is on his daily walk past my home. He is so friendly towards other dogs and the introduction with other dogs is very easy! Sampson loves people of all ages. He also loves to go for car rides and is completely housebroken. Sampson is gaining some weight and he eats like a champ. He was so happy to see me since we spent the day on Saturday together for an adoption event. He was all kisses and hugs - what a great boxer boy he is!

Sampson is in his new foster home and is doing fabulously. He got a nice hot bath and enjoyed it immensely. Sampson is so friendly! Sampson and his new foster brother, Toby, were instant best buds. Sampson is 2 and a half yrs old according to his owners who left him at the shelter when they moved. Sampson has no history around cats. He previously lived with 2 small children, ages 4 and 5. I can see that he must have loved them, as he is so sweet.

Sampson loves anyone he sees and his tail never stops wagging. He has no problems eating and can stand to gain a few pounds. He has a crooked leg, which he was either born with or it was an earlier injury that was never taken care of properly. It doesn't seem to slow him down. Sampson is now neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested negative, up to date on all vaccines, and started on heartworm preventative. He is such a love bug and deserves a great home. The family that gets him will be one lucky home!

Sampson is a 3 year old male boxer who was surrendered to the shelter because the landlord would not allow him. He has an old injury to his right paw, but it does not appear to cause him any discomfort. Sampson is very stressed and not doing well in the shelter. Although he previously lived with a 4 and 5 year old child, we are recommending a home with older children until we get to know him better. Sampson is very social with people. He will be neutered soon and brought up to date on all vet care. Please offer to foster or adopt this handsome boy!

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.
