09/25/13 Jasper has been with us, his
foster family, for one month now. He is a friendly, well behaved little
man. He is house trained, sleeps all night, knows some commands like: sit,
stand, paw, high five. He plays well with our two boxers, female, age 3 and
male, age 5. He likes to play fetch. He is not super high energy, so he is
not rough housing or driving us crazy. He is calm in the house. He is
small, about 45-50 pounds, which is about 25 pounds less than my two boxers.
You can lift him. He was also a good boy in the bathtub. His brindle coat
is shiny any pretty.
He is good with our 6 year old daughter, too, but he did chew a bath
sponge and one little toy. He is a very loving fella, who is content to
sit or lay with you, and settles down as soon as he comes in from playtime
outside. I don't leave him out very long. 5-10-15 minutes usually. He
doesn't bark very much, and when he does, it is not at an annoying pitch. It
has not been necessary to crate him. He has free roam of the main floor of
the house when we are not home, and has had no accidents.
Of course as a boxer owner, I know not to leave food out on the counter,
and I always put my garbage pail out of reach when not home. He has shown no
signs of food aggression, or any other type of aggression at all. Just a
nice, loving little boxer, who will fit in just about anywhere.

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.
