Shelby is in need of a new foster home.  She is wonderful with people, including children of all ages.  Shelby loves attention and she wiggles when she sees a new person.  Shelby also enjoys playing fetch.  She walks well on a leash and does great in her crate.  Shelby is very eager to please and picks up commands quickly.  She is not comfortable around the other dogs in her foster home and would do best as an only dog at this time.  Shelby also seems very fixated on the cat.  If you can provide a home for Shelby, apply today for this beautiful girl!

6/29/16 -

Shelby was found as a stray and is estimated to be around 5-6 yrs of age.  She is a petite girl who did well with her behavior evaluations at the shelter.  Shelby will be arriving at her new foster home on Friday, where she will be living with two other dogs and several children.  We will update her page once she gets settled in and her foster family 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.
