Simba has arrived at his foster home and is settling in well. He is now in foster with a female boxer.  We have learned a little more about Simba's background.  Simba and Tia were originally owned by a couple who became very ill.  They put an ad in the paper and chose what they thought was the best family for them.  They received updates at first, but then the updates stopped.  The new family left both dogs at the shelter on February 14th.  Thankfully, Simba has found a foster home through rescue and will now be able to find a wonderful, forever home of his own. 

3/10/12 -

Hello, meet Simba! He is a neutered 7 year old male boxer. Simba and his companion, Tia, were abandoned in the shelter yard. When his owners were tracked down, they did not want the two boxers back. Tia has since been adopted from the shelter and Simba will be going to his new foster home this weekend. Simba is a handsome boy and he is reported to be loving and reserved. We will update his page once his new foster mom gets to know him better. Thank you for your interest in Simba!

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.
