Missy has completely come out of her shell.  She is a pleasant, loveable, pocket size, little nub wiggler.  Missy is crate trained, but prefers to be with her humans and siblings.  Her last heartworm treatment is scheduled for January 2nd.  Missy has had a tough start in life, but is ready to show all that she has to offer to a very special family.  Give Missy a chance!

Missy is an absolute sweetheart.  After a timid start, she has quickly warmed up.  Missy gets along well with her new foster brother and sister, and gives her foster parents plenty of kisses.  She walks well on a leash, is housebroken, and is being worked with to learn basic commands.  If you want a loving, low key, easy going gal - look no further!

Missy was found as a stray by animal control.  She has gone into temporary boarding until her transport to New York.  Missy is reported to be good with other dogs, very sweet, and low key.  We did find out that she is a little bit of an escape artist and can dig very quickly under a fence.  Missy is heartworm positive and will need to be treated once she arrives in New York.  She will also need a foster home.  We will update Missy's page once we know more about her.  Please apply to foster or adopt Missy today!

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.
