8/03/14 -

Cain and Maxx are being surrendered to rescue because their owner had a change in life circumstances.  These boys are currently separated due to fights between them and need to be placed in different homes.  Cain is currently being kept on an outdoor run or in the garage at a family member's house, but he can not stay there much longer.  Cain is housebroken and knows his basic commands.  He is reported to be great with children and has lived with a toddler. 

Cain enjoys playing with a soccer ball outside.  He also loves to snuggle with his family.  Cain is very cautious with new people, but did warm up to our volunteers who went to meet him today.  He can be very fearful at the vet's office and has experienced difficulty there in the past. 

Cain was rescued from an abusive situation while his family was stationed in Germany.  He had been abused by a man and can still be reserved with some men.  Cain does not have a history around other dogs.  He may be able to be acclimated into a home with a submissive female after slow and careful introductions.  Cain needs to be placed with an experienced boxer owner who can continue his rehabilitation and help him transition to a new family.

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.
