Hooch spent the past several days in a temporary foster home and did wonderful!  He got along great with the other male boxer.  Hooch was able to be left alone in an area of the house with no problems.  He is currently at our vet, where he will be neutered and brought up to date.  Hooch will then be arriving at his new foster home, where he will be living with a female boxer.  This senior boy is very sweet and wants nothing more than to snuggle up next to you!

Hooch was surrendered to the shelter when his owners decided to move without him.  Hooch had been with his family since he was a puppy.  Hooch also previously lived with another dog.  He has done well with all the new dogs he has met at the shelter and even tested well with cats.

Hooch was in danger of being euthanized, so he is now safe in temporary boarding and will be transported to rescue on Thursday.  Hooch will be seen by our rescue vet, where he will be neutered and brought up to date.  Hooch is in urgent need of a foster home following his surgery so this senior boy does not have to spend any time in the kennel.  The volunteers at the shelter have commented that he is one of the sweetest boys they have met.  When you sit down, Hooch is quick to put his paws on your knees to snuggle with you.  If you can be a hero to Hooch, apply today to foster this sweet senior boy.

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.
