This adorable little guy is Boomer! He came to us when one of our supporters received a call about a boxer pup in need and she, in turn, got in touch with us. Apparently, his latest owner decided after a couple of weeks that a boxer puppy wasn't the best idea. From what we have been able to piece together, he has been in at least three homes in his short four months already.

Boomer is a smart pup! He already knows sit and down, will let you know he needs to go out (once he understands where 'out' is), does well on a leash and really enjoys playing with his foster brothers and his toys...and sometimes thinks those two things are one and the same! If you are considering adding a boxer puppy to your family, please make sure you research the breed. Although we certainly think they are the best dog, we also know boxers aren't the best breed for everyone. Those adorable puppy eyes have fooled more than a few people! Puppies are a lot of work, and you can double that when you add in the energy of a boxer. If you aren't 100% committed to the training, socialization and exercise needed for a boxer puppy, head back to the available dogs page and look for an older adult instead.

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.
