Gypsy has been with me for almost 4 months and has continued to be overlooked. She is one of the most easygoing fosters I have had in my  home.  Gypsy has been around several other fosters, as well as many different people, children, & other pets.  She wants nothing more then to be given love. Gypsy has put on some weight since coming into my home because she is the one who cleans all the dog bowls after dinner.

Gypsy loves to go for a walk/run and will sit patiently for her leash - her attitude is...I have all day to wait for my walk. She has also adjusted very well with my cats and has stopped chasing them. I am shocked that somebody has not snatched her up as she is the best snuggler. She also listens very well with commands. Gypsy would love to have a home to call forever.  Please don't let her age fool you - she is a wonderful little girl who is very eager to please.

We wanted to share a couple of Gypsy's Easter pictures from her foster home.

Gypsy has been with me for 2 months and 2 days - she is such a great little girl who seems to be getting overlooked. Gypsy is housetrained and crate trained. She enjoys spending her days relaxing on the couch and looking out the window. Gypsy is a super good listener and responds well to directions. While she enjoys being the center of attention, Gypsy has done very well with my last 3 fosters, as well as my own 2 Boxers.

Gypsy will literally jump up and down to go out for a walk or to go for a ride in the car. She is so young at heart. One of my complaints with her, though, is that she doesn't take a very good picture.  Please don't let that discourage you as I can assure you she is a real cutie with a gorgeous little face and a huge heart.

My sister recently watched Gypsy for a weekend and had nothing but the best things to say about her.  She indicated that if she didn't have her small dogs already, she would be applying herself. Gypsy is one of the sweetest girls I have met.  I think Gypsy is going to make a family complete

Gypsy is doing great in her foster home.  She is getting along well with both of my boxers. Gypsy is a very outgoing girl now that she has come out of her shell. Gypsy is housetrained as well as crate-trained. She is a little shy when first meeting new people, but within 3 seconds she is a total sweetheart :)

Gypsy seems very eager to please. She will sit and wait for a treat as well as clean her bowl & any leftovers she can find. She is like a little vacuum cleaner. Gypsy is also great on the leash; however, with the cold weather we are not getting out as much as she would like to. Everybody that has met Gypsy has said that she does not look nor act 9 - we are wondering if she may be a little younger than reported. Gypsy is in great shape and very active, but when it's bed time she is a total snuggler. She will lay at the top of the bed like a little human and sleeps until you say good morning - then she has the whole boxer wiggle going on. She also seems to listen very well if you correct her.

With senior sweetheart month approaching in February, I am really hoping that there is a special home out there looking for a great little girl to make their family complete. If you think you have what it takes to give Gypsy her forever home, please apply today.

Gypsy is a 9 year old female boxer who was surrendered to the shelter along with Blaze, a 2 yr old male boxer, when their owner lost his home. The owner reported that Gypsy was housebroken and crate trained. She is very friendly, always eager to meet people and give lots of kisses. Gypsy gets along with other dogs that are not dominant with her. She does not do well with cats. Gypsy will be arriving at her foster home soon and we will update her page once we learn more about her.  Thank you for your interest in this petite, senior girl!

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.
