Thor is being surrendered because his owners do not have the time to invest in a young Boxer.  He is a cutie that grew up with children of all ages. However, because there was no fenced yard and 5 children to care for, his owners felt it was in his best interest to have AABR find him a home that had the time to provide him with the training and attention he so deserves. Thor is a high energy boy that will snatch the kids' toys and barrel through the house, knocking very young children down.  We feel that a home with kids over 5 would be best for him. He is house trained, crate trained, and knows his basic commands. Thor is in foster with a large pack and made fast friends with everyone! He does tend to be shy with men and hid under the bed when first meeting his foster dad. With a lot of exercise and some additional training, Thor is going to be one awesome 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.
