Brutus is a handsome white boxer boy who is being surrendered to AABR because his owners are moving to Australia. He is deaf and used to living with a female dog as his companion and his "ears." Brutus has been trained to understand basic sign language commands such as sit, come, stay, etc. He is a laid back and gentle boy. Brutus loves attention from people and is excellent with children of all ages.

Brutus has recently relocated to an apartment in the city.  His owners feel he would do much better in a home with a fenced backyard.  One of AABR's volunteers met Brutus today and indicated that he was an amazing boy. He greeted her at the door without a jump, but a big wiggle. He has a face that is just amazing and you can tell that his family did a great job with his training. His owner demonstrated all of his different signs and Brutus followed them around everywhere. He will not get up on the furniture or even his own "bed" unless you tell him to. Brutus is completely housebroken. He is also perfectly fine with bathing, teeth brushing (in fact he loves it) and nail trimming. Brutus also does great with other dogs! 

His owner would be happy to teach a new foster home or adopter all of the signs that Brutus knows. He doesn't have any medical issues other than mild environmental allergies. This gentle boy is going to be an amazing addition to any home. If you are able to foster or adopt Brutus, please apply today!

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.
