Buck is doing really well in his new foster home. He has already lost some weight and now fits through the dog door! Buck will go for his next check up in 2 weeks. He is definitely feeling better as he now runs in the yard and plays with the other dogs. Buck's favorite place to sleep and cool off is inside the crate. If you tell him to go to his bed, Buck will head right to his crate. The 6 year old child in Buck's foster home gives him training treats and Buck is very gentle with him. He is like a giant puppy with the child and other dogs in his home. Buck is great in the car and does really well at the vet's office. He gets so excited when you tell him he did something right! Buck is just filled with love and affection. He is awesome to have around and is a very special boy!

Buck is now in foster with two other boxers, a 9 yr old female and a 9 month old male, a cat, and a five year old child. He is getting along great with everyone. Buck weighed in at our vet's office at 112 pounds.  Poor Buck has a difficult time getting around due to his weight, but his foster home will be working hard on a diet and weight loss plan for him. He has also been started on a medication for low thyroid.  Buck was neutered this week. His foster family will update his page soon with new pictures and more information once Buck settles in.

Buck is a wonderful boxer boy who is around 7 years old.  His current home was watching Buck for a friend who had lost their job and home.  His previous owner then decided that he was not able to take him back.  Buck's temporary home is not able to keep him and contacted rescue for help.

Buck is very friendly with people.  He is extremely overweight and needs to lose several pounds.  Buck lives with a cat and children (2 year old twins).  He is also great with other dogs.  Buck is given free run of the house and he is very well behaved.  He is in need of a foster or forever home.  Please apply today to help this sweet boy!

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.
