Memphis did great on her transport this weekend.  She traveled well in the car and was wonderful with each new person she met.  Memphis loves both children and adults.  She previously lived with two children, ages 3 and 13 yrs.  Memphis would do best in a home with a submissive male boxer or would be fine as an only dog as well.  She would love to have somebody home with her, but her foster mom will be working on crate training.  It is evident that Memphis has not been well cared for in the past. She is being treated for a skin infection and has been dewormed.  Memphis is a very petite girl, although she does need to gain some weight.  If you are interested in adopting Memphis, apply today!

9/16/14 -

Memphis was surrendered to the shelter when her owner could not care for a dog anymore.  She is 5 years old and weighs around 50 lbs.  Memphis is reported to be good with male dogs.  She is wonderful with children of all ages.  Memphis is completely housebroken and walks well on leash.  She has never needed a crate because she is very well mannered in the home.  Memphis knows how to sit, lay, and shake.  She will be transported into rescue this weekend and we will post better photos and more information following her transport.  Thank you for your interest in Memphis!

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.
