Davey has arrived at his new foster home and is settling in well.  After a short period of adjustment, Davey is doing well when left alone.  He gets along great with the female dog in his foster home.  Davey will sometimes favor his previously injured leg, but it doesn't slow him down when walking.  Davey is fantastic on leash and is very sweet.  He is going to be a wonderful addition to a lucky home! 

1/14/16 -

Davey was originally found as a stray and estimated to be around 7 yrs of age.  When he first came into the shelter, Davey was very thin and in need of some TLC.  His owner was later found, but Davey was surrendered to the shelter.  He really enjoyed having somebody sit with him in his kennel and love on him.  Davey is quite the kisser!  He appears to have possibly been hit by a car at some point in his life, as he has a little bit of arthritis in one hip from the old wound.  Davey doesn't let that slow him down, though.  He is still a spunky, sweet boy.  Davey has been neutered and brought up to date on all vet care.  The shelter reports that he is good with other dogs, cats, and children.  Davey is leash trained and enjoys going on walks.  He will be arriving at his new foster home this weekend.  We will update Davey's page as soon as we learn more about him.

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.
