Ringo is an adorable white boxer. He is super sweet and very social. Ringo needs some work on his basic commands, but he is very smart and will learn quickly. I do not understand why this young, sweet, handsome, hearing white boxer has not been adopted yet. I had the pleasure of spending some time with him today and his nubbie would not stop wagging. He walked nicely on his leash and met a cute young brindle boxer and did very well. This boy needs a forever home. Apply to adopt Ringo today.

Ringo and his brother, Bryce, were found in a dumpster covered in blood in a waste management plant in South Carolina. Both boys are in pretty bad shape. They are emaciated, have sarcoptic mange, skin infections and are loaded with worms.

They will need to stay at the vet at least a week and then we will determine if they are well enough to travel. Once ready for transport, these babies will need a foster home to recuperate in. Please apply to foster Ringo or if you cannot foster at this time, consider donating toward his care.
 

Treatment  Dogs that have sarcoptic mange will likely be treated with a scabicide -- a drug that kills the itch mite. In some cases, the animal will be dipped in a scabicidal shampoo to kill all of the mites living in its skin. Ongoing treatment is necessary to kill all of the mites as the eggs will take time to hatch, and most treatments do not kill the eggs, only the living mites. Living and Management Complete response to the therapy may take a few weeks.

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.
