Gizmo has arrived at his new foster home and has visited our vet.  He is on an antibiotic for a skin infection, but his hair is coming back in and he is looking so much better already.  The vet feels that Gizmo just turned 6 months of age.  He will be neutered in two weeks and will then be ready for his forever home.  Gizmo would love to find a home with a young female dog to play with, as he loves being around other dogs.  He is crate trained and is working on his housebreaking.  If you have the time and energy for a puppy this age, apply today to adopt Gizmo!

Gizmo is a 6 month old boy who was surrendered to the shelter in need of medical attention.  He was taken to the vet and they determined that Gizmo has Demodex Mange, which is not contagious.  Gizmo will be visiting our rescue vet next week and starting medication for this.  We will update Gizmo's page as soon as he settles into his new foster home and we learn more about him.

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.
