Hi everyone! My name is Devon, but I go by DeeDee. I'm a very fit Boxer boy with two different color eyes. I'm very handsome. I was surrendered along with Amethyst because our owner couldn't take care of us anymore. She became very ill and had to keep us in our crates 100% of the time. Because of that, I haven't been socialized at all, with people or other dogs. I'm so scared!! All of these changes are frightening me so I keep trying to protect myself by barking. In reality, I just want to make sure people aren't going to hurt me. This is all new to me. The other day, an AABR volunteer came to pick me up and she won me over with treats. I'm pretty much a sucker for treats. After that, I decided to let her be my best friend and gave her kisses. If given a chance, I can warm up to anyone but I need people to be patient with me. Don't be scared off by my loud bark. I will make a very good pet once I realize that you aren't going to hurt me. I just need someone to work with me some so that I understand that I'm not in danger. Will you help me please? I know that I can do it and I want to make someone very happy. Give me a shot and I'll impress you...I promise!

Additional info about Devon:
Devon is available through New Jersey Boxer Rescue.  He requires a home with Boxer or large breed experience and someone who will have a lot of patience with him. He will require training and strong/kind leadership. If you feel you can provide that for him, please contact the rescue.

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.
