Pacman is doing great!  He is so easygoing and is content just to chill on his dog bed or on the couch.  His favorite thing, though, is to snuggle.  As much as Pacman loves the life of a couch potato, he also will engage in play with his foster mom or his foster fur-sibling as long as one of them are willing.  Pacman has the perfect combination of silly puppy boxer antics and a laid back pup who knows how to greet other people and dogs appropriately.  Because the crate stressed him, Pacman spent this past week with limited run of the house and he did much better.

After two weeks, Pacman's foster mom has reported that he is settling in fabulously.  He has such great manners in the house and on a scale of one to ten, he is a ten or a near perfect ten in the following areas: housetrained, walking, hiking, meeting other dogs, meeting people, car rides, playing with his foster sister, playing with his foster mom, taking treats gently, and snuggling!  Pacman is still working on adjusting to his crate.  He would love to find a home where he doesn't have to be crated for long periods.  His foster mom is going to allow him out with free run for short periods to see if he does better with that when left alone.  If you are looking for a boxer with an amazing disposition, apply today for Pacman!

Pacman has arrived at his new foster home and is settling in well.  He has great manners and is easily redirected.  Pacman has also done fabulous with his new foster sister.  He walks well on leash and is completely housetrained.  Pacman's foster mom is working on crate training with him.  He loves to snuggle and give kisses!! 

3/12/16 -

Pacman was found as a stray and estimated to be around 5-6 yrs of age.  The shelter reports that Pacman is very social with people and he did well with both male and female dogs.  Pacman was transported this afternoon to his new foster home and he is settling in well.  He is getting along great with his new foster sister, a female boxer mix.  Pacman's foster mom describes him as a total sweetheart who loves toys!  We will update Pacman's page as he gets settled in and 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.
