Bowser is just the sweetest boy.  He has been in foster care for a week now and has not made a peep. He goes into his crate without any hesitation, walks very gently on his leash, and eats and sleeps great. Bowser loves any attention anyone will give him and loves to be playful, but will settle down as soon as you want him to and does not jump up unless you want to play. He’s just a great all around dog who gets along with people and other dogs. We are working on potty training, which he seems to be doing better with. Once he has that down, he will be golden. Bowser’s starting to learn how to be a dog and even picked up a toy the other day, which is a first. I know in time his true personality will come thru, he’s just starting. Please apply to adopt Bowser today.

Bowser was left tied out in his backyard and he was attacked by a loose dog. His owners surrendered him to the shelter because they could not afford his medical care.  Bowser had wounds on his legs, neck, and belly -which are healing nicely. He is a sweet boy and with some training, will make a wonderful addition to a lucky home. He is a typical boxer boy, full of wiggles and kisses. Bowser was dog tested with both a male and a female dog, and he did great. Bowser needs a foster home so he doesn't have to go to a kennel. Please open your home and heart to foster or adopt this great dog!

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.
