I met Tigger today and he is a sweet boy. Tigger gives lots of love and was fantastic with my 4 year old child.  He has no problems with Chevy, the other male boxer at the kennel.  Tigger knows sit and shake commands. He is honestly a sweet soul - you can see it in his eyes. With a little TLC, he will be a wonderful family member!

Tigger and Chevy have been transported to one of our local kennels. The kennel manager indicated that they love children. Both boys were so gentle with the 8 year old child posing in the pictures. They also do well with other dogs. Apply today to foster or adopt Tigger!

AABR was contacted by a non-profit organization to help two boxers who had been dumped at a local kill shelter.  This county shelter only has space for 8 dogs and until a new law was passed in 1999, it was lawful for the animal control officer to shoot dogs to euthanize them.  They have since changed their policy in the state to gassing chambers.

Tigger and Chevy are the latest to join our AABR family thanks to some special friends looking out for them! These boys came from this shelter. They have lived their lives outdoors, but will not be in that position again.  They deserve better and thanks to you, we will give them a life well deserved.

Tigger and Chevy are fully vetted and currently in a boarding facility waiting for a foster home or even better, a forever home! They've been evaluated and are currently in boarding with a trainer that does search and rescue.  She stated that they are both really nice dogs.  Please consider helping these boys.

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.
