The folks at AABR refer to me as Myra, but I have many names at my foster home.  I am called Bobby Sox, Chubbly, Chubbs, Girl, and my favorite - "The Bibby or Bib."  I am a free spirit and would prefer not be crated or confined.  This should not worry you, though.  I can and will respect your space and the things in your space.  I will not enter, sit, or touch that which is forbidden to me.  I like to commune with nature as much as possible, so long walks and time in the backyard are necessities to my well-being.  I will patrol our domain and immediately alert you of visitors. 

I am a very low maintenance girl and love people, both children and adults.  I enjoy the company of other dogs, but would be happy to fly solo with you as well!  You couldn't find an easier companion than myself.  Please come check me out!

Myra has arrived at her new foster home and is settling in really well.  Myra is getting along great with her foster siblings.  She would do best in a home with a fenced yard, as she loves to be outside!  Myra will patrol the yard and then relax on the deck.  She just had her sutures removed in her eye and it has healed beautifully!  Myra is very sweet and low maintenance.  If you are interested in adding this wonderful girl to your family, apply today for Myra!

Myra realizes she is safe now and she loves to cuddle and give kisses!  She has healed well following her eye removal and her stitches come out next week.  Myra has been in a temporary foster home while waiting for her transport.  They report she is housetrained and also knows basic commands such as sit, no, etc.  Myra has done well with other dogs and cats.  She has occasionally chased the cats, but has never hurt them.  Myra is going to make an awesome addition to a family one day - they will be lucky to have her!  She just arrived at her new foster home in Maryland yesterday.  We will update Myra's page as soon as her foster home learns more about her!

1/21/15 -

Myra was a neighborhood stray in West Virginia who was often seen with a male Beagle.  Volunteers with One by One Animal Advocates found out about Myra and rushed her to the vet.  Her one eye had ruptured and we don't know how long this poor girl suffered in terrible pain.  The primary person who was feeding Myra indicated he did not have the money to take her to the vet. 

The volunteers moved into action quickly and Myra was seen by a vet on Monday.  The vet that examined Myra indicated her eye needed to be removed as soon as possible.  This surgery was completed yesterday and she is recovering well.  The vet indicated that Myra is around 7 yrs of age.  She had been microchipped, but the number is now disconnected.

Myra will be recovering in a temporary foster home until her transport to AABR next weekend.  She will then be arriving at a foster home in Maryland.  Myra has had a rough past, but we will make sure her future involves only the best care and a loving family to care for her.

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.
