Walt was adopted a week ago, but has been returned to rescue to find a home without cats.  He is arriving back at his foster home this evening and we will provide an update once Walt gets settled back in.

Walt is now in foster and doing great.  He has been the perfect houseguest.  Walt knows come, stay, sit, shake, lay down, and go place.  He listens and responds very well.  Walk also walks great on leash.  He has been very well behaved in the house.  Walt was tested with a cat and completely ignored  him.  He has been getting along really well with both the other boxer and the children in his foster home.  Whoever adopts Walt will be very lucky!

Walt has arrived at his temporary foster home, but is still looking for a foster or forever family.  He traveled great in the car.  Walt is in a home with two other boxers, a male and a female, and has no problems with either.  He seems to be a pretty easygoing boy and is very sweet!  Apply today for Walt!

8/20/14 -

Walt is a brindle boy who was found as a stray and is estimated to be around 5-6 yrs of age.  The shelter indicated that he is a sweet boy and did great with other dogs.  Walt was just neutered and brought up to date on all vet care.  He is in need of a foster or forever home.  We will post new pictures after his transport this weekend. Please offer to foster this boy so he doesn't have to be kenneled very long.  Thank you for your interest in Walt!

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.
