Forest was transported to our vet's office, where he is being treated for mange.  We are in urgent need of a foster home for Forest once he gets released from the vet. 

The volunteers that transported Forest indicated that he is a really sweet boy.  He traveled well in the car and was eager to meet new people.  Once his skin is cleared up, he will be a beautiful boy.  Forest has lived with young children at his previous home.  He was kept in kennel runs with other dogs at the shelter and did well with everyone.  Forest also passed his cat test.  If you can foster or adopt Forest, apply today!

9/8/11 -

Forest's owners could no longer care for him, so they brought him to the shelter. Forest lived with children, the youngest being 2 years old. He is reported to be good on leash and housebroken. Forest loves to play fetch. He has done great with the other dogs at the shelter and has been kept in runs with several different dogs. Forest does have skin condition that will be examined at our vet's office. He is already neutered and will be brought up to date on all other vet care. The volunteers at the shelter all adore him and indicate he is going to be a wonderful boy for a lucky home. Apply today if you are interested in fostering or adopting Forest!

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.
