Sweet, sweet, sweet! That's all you can say about little Ellie. At just 40 lbs, she is a petite girl who clearly wasn't very well cared for. She needs to gain some weight, but otherwise is a healthy, happy boxer girl. Ellie is currently living in a foster home with several other dogs, large and small, and does fine with all of them.  Because she is a very energetic young boxer, she can be a bit too playful for the older dogs. Ellie does do well when they tell her to "cut it out" and she does get the hint eventually.

When she is through "exercising," she is very good at snuggling up next to you. Ellie sleeps through the night and does fine in her crate during the day. She's working on housetraining and is happy to do her business outside. Ellie is learning about the leash and likes to go on walks. She is the perfect dog for someone looking for a young dog and a home that is willing to work with her on obedience and help her become the awesome dog she was meant to be. Please consider Ellie today. They don't get much cuter than this sweet little girl.

Ellie is an adorable boxer puppy who was found as a stray and taken to the shelter.  She is estimated to be around 8 months of age. Ellie is very timid in new situations, but once she warms up - she is all puppy in behavior!  Ellie would love a fenced yard to run and play in.  She needs a home that has the time to work with Ellie on her training and socialization.  Ellie will be spayed and brought up to date soon on all vet care.  She will then be ready for her foster or forever home!

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.
