Laayla is doing great in her foster home.  She is just the sweetest little girl.  Laayla is very well behaved, totally housebroken, and walks nicely with her harness.  She does not need a crate during the day.  Laayla loves every person that she meets.  She went to preschool with her foster mom and settled right in with the kids for story time.  She was fantastic in this setting and would be a great candidate for therapy work. 

At home, Laayla loves to snuggle on the couch and enjoys playing with her toys.  She responds to her name and knows many commands.  She has been such a delight to have around.  Laayla is going to be a wonderful addition to a lucky home.

3/15/14 -

Laayla was brought to the shelter after her owner was incarcerated and the family members could not keep her.  She was great for her intake examination and showed the staff that she knew how to sit, stay, and down.  Laayla is social, tolerant of handling, and very people oriented.  She was tested with other dogs and did great. 

Laayla was transported to our kennel and will be arriving at her foster home early next week.  The volunteer that transported Laayla indicated that she laid right down in the car and traveled well.  She walked well on leash and was very sweet!  Somebody is going to be very lucky to adopt this precious girl!  We will post more information once her foster mom gets to know her.  Thank you for your interest in Laayla.

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 3 months to adopt a Rescue Boxer to an approved applicant, depending on your personal circumstances and flexibility.  

Not every home is the right match for a boxer, and 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 at your home visit of other dogs you are interested...  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.
