Isabella is being returned to rescue because she is not comfortable around the 3 yr old child in the home.  Isabella is a loving girl who is quick to give kisses.  Her nub is always wagging.  If placed in a home with another dog, Isabella would do best with an older, submissive male.  She is a sweet girl who is looking for the right match.

Isabella is doing great in her foster home.  She is an absolute doll!  Everyone who meets Izzy falls immediately in love.  She is fabulous with our two younger children.  Izzy loves to cuddle - if you are lying down, she will be right next to you.  She is also super playful and loves soft, plush toys.  Izzy walks well on leash, but does get excited when she sees a squirrel or bunny.  She has played with a couple dogs in the neighborhood and done well with them.  Izzy is such a great, well-rounded dog that is going to make the very best addition to a lucky family. 

9/24/15 -

Isabella was surrendered to the shelter by her owner.  She was timid in the shelter, but once she got out to the yard with our volunteer - Isabella was a very happy girl!  Her nub wagged constantly and she loved to wiggle.  Isabella greeted another dog well through the fence.  She should not be placed in a home with small dogs or cats.  Isabella just arrived at her new foster home.  We will be updating her page once her foster mom learns more about 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.
