Apparently, someone forgot to tell Kelsey that she's a 'senior" because she doesn't act like one! Kelsey joined us at our Breakfast for the Boxers Fundraiser and no one could believe she was 10. She is just so happy and energetic. Kelsey is with AABR because after 10 years of being someone's pet, they decided to move on without her. While we cannot figure out how someone could do that, we are so happy to help Kelsey find her next forever home. She deserves only the best!

Kelsey is house-trained, walks FABULOUS on the leash, and loves to snuggle. She has earned the nickname "lil' shadow" because she just follows you around everywhere. She is fine with other dogs, but as an older girl -she will let the younger ones know if they are being too pushy. She loves toys, with a Jolly Ball being her favorite thing! Sweetheart doesn't even begin to describe this wonderful senior girl. Please consider giving Kelsey a home to call her own. She will pay you back in wiggles and kisses every single day!

Included are some updated pictures from Kelsey's transport yesterday. She is currently at our vet's office being spayed and brought up to date on all vet care. Kelsey was so confused yesterday - she doesn't understand why her life has been turned upside down. She traveled great in the car and was very sweet with all the new people she met. We will update Kelsey's page once she goes to her new foster home and we learn more about her.

6/26/12 -

At 10 years of age, Kelsey was dropped off at the shelter when her owners moved and didn't take her with them. She is reported to be very friendly with other dogs. Kelsey will be brought up to date on all vet care and will then be arriving at her new foster home. We will post more information about Kelsey once she settles in at her foster home.  New pictures of Kelsey will be added after her transport this weekend.

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.
