8/31/15 Brutus is a sweet boy with a
very playful personality. He enjoys interacting with other dogs and
needs a home with a young, active female dog to keep him company. He
will kiss you every moment he can and snuggling is his favorite activity
after a long day of play. If you have an active female that can keep
up with Brutus, apply today to adopt this wonderful boy!

Brutus continues to make
strides with his foster family, and is becoming quite the young man.
Brutus is such a happy dog and just loves to be around people and other
dogs. Sometimes he can take his playing a little too far. He met
with a trainer, who indicated that Brutus doesn't have a mean bone in his
body. He is secretly a mush!
As with any young boxer, Brutus is easily excitable and sometimes quite
stubborn. With the right training and with patience, this will get
better. Brutus has so much to offer. Give him a chance and he
will show you!!

Brutus is loving life!
He has come so far in the short time he has been in foster care.
Brutus is fully housebroken, walks wonderfully with a harness on, and loves
to meet new people. Brutus has a strong personality and responds best
to people who are assertive. He needs somebody who can discipline him
properly when his puppyish behaviors get out of line. Brutus does best
with dogs who also assert themselves. This handsome boy is a work in
progress, but surely worth it all! Brutus shows his gratefulness every
day with lots and lots of kisses!! Do you think you have what it takes
to take Brutus from good to great?

Brutus is doing well in foster
and looking for a forever home. He is a sweet, energetic young boy who
loves to give kisses. Brutus has been in his foster home for a little
over a week now. He is being taught commands such as sit, stay, and down. He is also
learning how to walk properly on leash. Brutus would do best in a home
with older children, as he needs work with playful nipping. He is
almost completely housebroken. Brutus lives with two other boxers, who
he is becoming more comfortable with. Brutus needs a home that can
be patient and take the time to work with him. He is highly food
motivated and has a lot of potential!

Brutus was found as a stray and brought to the shelter. We do not
have a lot of information about him. Brutus has been neutered and
brought up to date on vaccines. He recently went into a temporary
foster home until his transport to Long Island, NY. Brutus is reported
to be good with other dogs. He seems to be a very sweet and friendly
boy. Brutus is looking for a foster home when he arrives in rescue.
We will update his page once we know more about him. |

Buy a Dog Name: This name is in memory of an AABR boxer boy owned by Ryan's parents. He was the reason why we fell in love with boxers and with AABR.
He was a stubborn old man through and through. His favorite hobbies were
eating, sleeping, and occasionally trotting around the backyard. Brutus
was always the talk of the family!

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.
