Leah is just the sweetest young gal going. She is such a cute boxer. Leah is on her way to good health and will never have to worry about Parvo again. Once you get it, you can never get it again!!

Leah loves to go for rides in the car and had a great time hanging out at my house with 4 other dogs for the weekend, while her foster Mom was away. Leah is housebroken and does well on her harness. Like any young boxer, she would do well in a basic obedience or agility class. She is like a tiny gazelle and loves to fly around and play with other dogs. I worked on the crate with her and she whined a bit, but was okay in it. Leah will be a great addition to any family.

Leah attended the Puppy Mill Awareness Day event in Scranton, PA last weekend.  Included is a new picture.  She is doing great and is ready for her forever home!

9/6/11

Included are some new pictures of Leah.  As you can see, she does need to gain a significant amount of weight.  She is eating well now and is very playful again with her foster siblings.

Leah has finished all treatment and is now ready to find her forever home!

8/21/11

Leah has been released from the emergency vet and is back at her foster home.  She is starting to eat regularly and even played a bit today.  Please offer to sponsor Leah to help us with her vet bills.

Leah arrived at her foster home and is getting along great with the other dogs. She seems to be housetrained and she knows her basic commands. Leah does need work on leash walking and with crating.

Once she settled into her home, her foster mom noticed that Leah wasn't feeling well. She would not eat, so she was taken to a vet. Poor Leah was diagnosed with Parvo. The next 24-48 hours are critical.

Leah's bills will be in excess of $3000. She would appreciate any sponsorship you could give her, even if it is just $5. We will do everything we can to save this girl, but we can't do it without all of our support out there!

8/8/11 -

Meet Leah - an adorable boxer girl who was found as a stray and is estimated to be around 12 months old. Leah did well on her dog test at the shelter.  She will be going into a foster home soon with other boxers and we will update her page once we know more about her.

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.
