Hi everyone, my name is Blitz! I am a 2 yr old male fawn boxer. I am a very energetic and loving boy, who loves to cuddle and play. When I was just a puppy, I was hit by a car and was laying on the side of the road when some nice person picked me up and took me to the animal hospital. I had a broken leg that was fixed with surgery. They tell me I have a rod and plate and screws in my left hind leg, but I don’t believe it!!! My leg doesn’t bother me at all, and I even run 5 miles at a time with my current owner without a problem! I love to swim in the pool in the summer, play fetch in the yard, go on hikes and walks, and most of all I LOVE to cuddle. I will keep you very warm on a cold winter night if you let me cuddle with you on the couch.

I am housebroken and crate trained. I sleep on my own dog bed on the floor next to my owners bed, but I love when they call me up to sleep at their feet. I have lived with two cats so far and I have gotten along great with them. I have been around children of all ages (5 weeks to 18 yrs) and I love to give them kisses and play with them. I can play nicely with other dogs for a few days at a time. After that, I sometimes try and be the “big dog on campus” and I get into a little bit of trouble. Unfortunately, that is why my current owners can not keep me anymore. So I would be fine going to the dog park for the afternoon, but I would prefer to have your undivided attention at home. I know how to sit, stay, lay down, roll over, and leave treats in front of me until I am told I can have them. As smart as I am, I would be happy if someone would continue to spend time training me. Please take a peak at my pictures and see how gorgeous of a boy I am!! I would love to be the newest addition to your family and find my forever home.

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.
