Comments: Cassius is a beautiful Boxer girl that is looking for the time and attention that any Boxer wants and deserves. Her owner is working long hours and is having to leave Cassius home alone much of the time. Please find it in your heart and your daily lives to give Cassius the love and attention she seeks and deserves.

Comments: Chelsea was born the runt of the litter in August 2000, to Brutus Al Thor and Baby Face Massey. Her high energy and her demand to be the center of attention makes up for her small size, and we believe that she feels she is not a dog but one of the kids. We have enjoyed over 8 years of unconditional love and her silly ways, and while not all her traits are good, we adore her all the same. She feels that a bed or coach is the only place for her to sleep and if those are not an option, any blanket or pillow left on the floor will do just fine. She adores my 19 year old and will do any thing to sit in her lap or climb in bed with her. She travels well in a car, usually falling asleep in the front seat, and she enjoys playing in the water hose and a sprinkler can be hours of entertainment. [more]

Comments: Hi there! My name is Cobain. I'm 10 months, neutered, and up-to-date on my shots and heartworm and flea prevention. My dad is a Boxer and my mom is an American Bulldog, which makes me a Bulloxer!

Unfortunately, my owner works too much and isn't able to give me the attention I need and deserve. I have some training - I'm crate trained, house broken, and know most basic commands, like sit, shake, stay, and lay down. I've recently been outside during the day (so I wasn't cooped up in a crate while my owner worked so much) I sleep in my crate at night with no problems. Oh, and I love treats! If you say 'treat', I know exactly what you're talking about and I'll stand by you and do anything you want to get that treat! [more]

Comments: Update 6/26/09: Hailey is adjusting to her foster home and is a delightful female. She is friendly with cats, dogs, kids and our live-in mailman! She is housebroken, walks well on a leash, plays, eats well and wags her tail faster than any I have seen! She loves her back rubbed and licks the air when getting loved on! She's very quick with a kiss and a smile! Hailey has just had her heartworm treatment so she'll be available for adoption the end of July.

Original comments: Hailey's family moved to Pennsylvania and, for reasons unknown, were unable to take her. The potential adopter backed out when she learned Hailey is heartworm positive. She is good with children, even toddlers, and cats. More to come from her foster family.

Comments: Hercules is a beautiful, sweet boy. He is very malnurished and has a case of hook worms, but you would never know by his playful personality. He only wants to give kisses and play. He does need some basic obedience training as he acts a lot like a puppy. Hercules will be good with older children as he is very hyper. He will be a wonderful addition to any family willing to work on his basic skills.

Comments: Update 5/26/09: Hi, I’m Hope, and for being so young, I’ve had a complicated life. I was found in a grove and couldn’t stop falling down. They thought I might be sick and wanted to put me down, but the amazing people at Florida Boxer Rescue got to me in time and took me to a local animal hospital. They found out I had trauma to my mouth and throat and gave me medicines to help me get well. Other than snoring loudly, I’m doing much better. I have a few more things to work through, but my foster mom says that I’m doing well and that I’m a good girl. I like most other dogs and think cats are fun to chase, but my foster mom and the kitty don’t agree with me. I like to chase a ball or stick, but haven’t mastered bringing it back yet. I love to wrestle and my doggie foster sister, Delilah, and I play rough and run in our big back yard every day. I’m a really happy girl and I just want someone to love me and teach me to be the best dog ever. Do you have a place in your home and heart for me? If so, submit an application form so I can come home to you and my new forever home. [more]

Comments: Update 6/1/09: Hopper is doing very well...putting on some needed weight and loving life. He needs a family with another dog his size (no small dogs). Hopper likes to be the alpha dog in his pack.

Update 5/14/09:Hi from Hopper! Hopper here - boy am I glad to be in my foster home. They have all kinds of toys that my foster fur brother shares. I have two baskets of toys to choose from and my favorite are the balls. I love to play fetch. Even though I only have three legs I can run almost as fast as my foster fur brother and I play just as hard. Mom and Dad say I have the sweetest face and I am a little cuddle bug. I love to cuddle on the couch with them. I can also get on the bed with everyone. Tyson (my fur foster) and I love to squish dad! [more]

See my very own video!!

Comments: Update 6/3/09: Hello, this is Jake! Did you check out my new video? I am the star of the show. I would love to be in your family video too. Please, won't you make me the bright star in your life and meet me today. I will show you that I still have a lot of love and loyalty to give. Come give me a hug (which I love) and I'll give you back a big boxer kiss. I'm waiting for you!

Update 4/6/09: Jake is just the sweetest boy. He loves to snuggle and wiggles at the slightest touch and is always ready to give kisses. His leg is doing much better with meds and laid back activity. Jake has the run of the house when we are gone and has been completely trustworthy. [more]

Comments: Update 6/17/09: I have blossomed in my foster home with my Boxer brother and sister. I've "retired" from boxer play with other boxers but love to give them kisses. I prefer to chew on my nylabone or a stuffed toy and lounge around. I don't pull on the leash and enjoy short walks in the current heat. I am curious about other people and animals but very polite. While my foster parents are at work, I don't need to be in a crate. I just snooze on the couch all day and then greet you at the door with my beautiful natural tail! You will always know when I am happy! I don't require any training and really just need love. Because I am a "Silver Boxer," my foster mom gives me glucosamine supplements and what a difference! [more]

Comments: Licorice is like sweet and spicy candy. She was picked up as a stray with Ruby in Citrus County. Since they both have been mommas, isn't it awesome that FBR rescued them just before Mother's Day??

Licorice is a beautiful reverse, flashy brindle. But her smooth black coat is marred with scars from her rough former life.

She is friendly and would love to give you kisses. She needs a family who will treat her like the sweet princess that she is.

Love,
Lucas

Comments: Max is a good tempered, big boy. His family is not financailly able to keep him. They had rescued him as a 6-month-old puppy who's owner had neglected him.
Max's family trained him and loved him for the last 4 1/2 years. He lives and plays with a 2-year-old skin kid. Cats and other dogs are his fur-friends.

So now Max is looking for a new Fur-ever home where he can be loved and cared for as he was in the past. Please consider making Max a member of your family.

Comments: Maya is a boxer mix, a stray dog that no one claimed. She is sweet, great with other dogs, kids, and cats. Maya is described as very sweet, playful, housebroken, spayed, and leash trained. The vet estimates that she's a year and a half old. She is currently on Heartguard and Frontline and has had all her shots. However, she has severe separation anxiety and probably needs to be with someone retired or who works part time or from home. Her anxiety can be very severe such that she destroyed a crate and a door trying to find her human. She acts as though she may have been abused or neglected before she was found lost in a state park.

Comments: Update 5/7/09: Megan is sooo happy right now!! She was full of love and kisses for the volunteers that helped her get from the vet to her foster home. If you are looking for a low maintenance, loving companion, Megan is the girl for you. She hasn't had to be crated [because she doesn't get into anything] she's house-broken, walks well on a leash, doesn't jump up on people, continues to be good with kids and cats,and.....drum roll please.....she gives High 5's!

She received a clean bill of health from the doc and she is ready for her forever home. [more]

Picture coming soon!

Comments: I picked up Odie this afternoon. He rides wonderfully in the car and is all puppy. He wanted to play with the other puppy at the vet with his nub going a mile a minute. Odie loves all children, including young ones. Odie needs to be neutered and see what is causing his skin allergies.

More to come from his foster home, once he gets in one.

Comments: Pepsi is so happy to be in his new foster home. They have a fur sister for him to play with and a big pool to swim in. Oh, and skin kids too. He really loves them.

As soon as Pepsi is neutered, he will be ready for his fur-ever home. Then he can play all day like the young pup that he is.

Comments: Update 5/26/09: I'm ready for my forever home!

~Rex~

Original comments: My family tells me that I have the sweetest disposition and that I have Marlon Brando eyes - whoever he is. Also, I am being treated for heartworms so it will be about six weeks before I am ready to see someone who might want me forever. And though I don't have that smushed boxer face, it only means that I don't snore loud and I don't slobber as much. But I am all boxer with kisses, wiggles, and playfulness. So I will keep you posted on my recovery so that you can get to meet me soon.

Comments: Update 5/30/09: Hi from Rocky II! I'm doing well at my new foster home. I have a mommy that loves me very much. My new step brother Sabastian the cat is fun to watch and sniff once in a while. When my foster mommy's granddaughters come over, I let them sit on me and run their toy cars up and down my back...it's like a massage...it feels good! I like to just lay around, but walking and eating time are my favorite parts of the day. Sometimes my foster mommy and I run thru the house and I get all excited and twirl around in circles; that's great fun! We go on walks in the morning and early evening so I don't get overheated. Because of my walks I have lost nearly five pounds....I need to loose more to keep me healthy and strong though! When my foster mommy goes away for several hours she just tells me to get in my "crib" and I go right in my crate and I fall asleep till she gets back. I am very happy to see her come home and I like to get hugs and lots of kisses... [more]

Comments: Update 5/17/09: Since being in foster care, Sarge has lost more then ten pounds from simply changing his diet and greatly increasing the amount of exercise he gets. He's no slouch... at 8 years he can still walk a mile with me and still want to play at the dog park on the way home. He has some barking issues which have greatly improved with vigorous training. However, he walks perfectly on the leash, right by my side, though he still tries to protect me from anything that makes real loud noises. In the home I do not need to crate him as he doesn't do anything destructive; he is content with settling down on my bed while I am out. Inside the house he follows me everywhere, afraid that I might leave him, I suppose. [more]

Comments: Update 5/30/09: Hi everybody, TJ here! A really nice man (Foster Dad) and his friend came and rescued me from Boxer jail! Boy was I so excited to get out of there. They took me to a really great home, where so far, I’ve met a lot of nice people! My foster mom and dad always compliment me on how well I behave. I don’t make messes in the house and I am crate trained too! I like to give kisses to the neighbor’s poodle; we get along really well. I’m not too sure what “aww” means, but that’s what all my foster mom’s girlfriends say. I love car rides and snuggling in bed, but I know I’m not allowed on the couch. At first I wasn’t full of boxer wiggles, but now I can’t stop! Foster mom and dad say I have heartworms and hookworms, but I can’t wait to find my furever home! [more]

Comments: Update 3/30/09: Hi all, my name is Willie. Claire sprung me from Seminole animal services. Man was I happy to get out of there. I’m a little thin right now but my foster dad says that I’ll be back to a healthy weight in no time. He also said that I need to work on my boundaries a little. I like to walk ahead of everyone, so I pull on my leash. Foster dad told me that I am a very good boy in the house and I'm perfectly housetrained, which means that I let him know if I need to go out.

Foster dad here. Willie has a lot of good qualities. He’ll sit and wait while I’m preparing his food. He knows sit, shake, get off the couch, and he does not seem to have any issues with separation anxiety. I’ve left Willie alone with his foster sister for a few hours and everything was in the same place when I returned, with him asleep on the couch. There will be more to come shortly, so check back soon. [more]
