Sonny originally came into AABR as an owner surrender with a Boxer female. They were in a home where we felt Sonny's future would be bleak if he was left there and the compassionate decision was made to help him too, even though he isn't a Boxer. There was something about young Sonny that we knew was special and we had to help him. Sonny is a typical happy go lucky young man who loves everyone and he is handsome too! He's grown up with children of all ages and other dogs, but like many dogs he finds kitties and other small fluffy species lots of fun to chase, so no cats for him.

Sadly, he came back to AABR in August due to a relationship break up in his forever home, not so forever for poor Sonny. If you love the breed, you'll be sure to fall in love with this gentle and big hearted guy. Sonny has been to several pet expos recently and he has been very well behaved.  Sonny loves meeting the public and is a great ambassador for his breed. This gorgeous boy is looking for a stable home where his people love to walk, have fun, play ball and snuggle at the end of a fun day together.  He is looking for a home where he can feel secure for the rest of his life - his forever home.  Please apply today for Sonny!

Sonny is coming back into rescue. Not his fault. The gate has been left open, and he has been getting out of the yard, which is not good for Sonny.

Sonny lives with 2 other dogs, a male and female, and a cat. Sonny is extremely well behaved and good with kids too. He is a 2yr old dog now. He has a great temperament and is so loving.

He is very well behaved and completely housebroken. Apply today to adopt this great boy!

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 1 month to adopt a Rescue Boxer to an approved applicant, depending on your personal circumstances and flexibility.  

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 as to other dogs you are interested in at Adoptions@AdoptABoxerRescue.com .  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.
