Albuquerque Boxers - Available

Angel

This is Angel. She made the trip from Roswell to Albuquerque on Sunday 8/1, and we'd like to thank Richard, Stacy and Jamie for handling the transport for everyone including Rio, Freddy and Angus. We would also like to thank Jo for fostering, while the dogs were in Roswell. She has been a Mom and is probably around 3 years old. She appears to be partially deaf in one ear and her eyesight doesn't seem to be the best. Her physical exam revealed developmental and conformational issues with the left side of her head; otherwise she appears healthy. She is a very sweet lady and is housebroken. She very well could be Angus's Mom. She gets along well with Pancho and Angus and is scheduled to be spayed on Thursday 8/5. If you are interested in adopting Angel, please contact us by email. Thank you Doug & Sheryl for fostering Angel!

Angus

Hello, my name is Angus. I also made the trip from Roswell to Albuquerque on Sunday. I had fun riding with Richard, Stacy and Jamie. I'm currently hanging out in my new foster home with Angel and Pancho and I'm loving every minute of it. I am a young lad, less that a year old. I am also really good in the house and haven't had any accidents. My foster Dad thinks that Angel is my Mom, but I'll let you decide. My foster Dad also scheduled a trip to the clinic on Thursday, and I'm less than thrilled, but I know it's the best thing for me. If you are interested in adopting Angus, please contact us by email. Thank you Doug & Sheryl for fostering Angus!

Oakley

Hello, my name is Oakley and I am about a year old and full of energy. I am full of love and love to play. I am a little on the shy side but once I get to know you we will become best friends. I do well with other dogs and kids. I love to go on walks but I need a little help on the leash. I would love a family to love me and call me their own. If you are interested in me, please complete an online application and send BRA an email. If you are interested in adopting Oakley, please contact us by email. Thank you Robert and the entire family for fostering Oakley!

Esther

I am a 4 year old female that gets along well with all other dogs and I love to play in the sprinklers. I love toys and I am wonderful with kids. I also walk well on a leash and I am very smart. I can sit, stay and shake on command. I am well behaved around the dinner table and I am trying to watch my weight. If you are interested in adopting Esther, please contact us by email. Thank you Peggy for fostering Esther!

Please fill out the adoption form if you're interested in any of our dogs!

Las Cruces Boxers

Maya

Hi there, I got a call today to come and get Maya. She is about 4-1/2 to 5 months old. She has learned how to get out of the yard and go visiting. Her owner works 12-14 hrs a day away from home. She had never had a shot. She is cute and loving and playful. I'm guessing 25 pounds or so. If you are interested in adopting or fostering Maya, please contact Lesa and complete our new online application. Thank you Lesa for fostering Maya!

Teddy

This little guy is about 40 pounds we think he is about 18 to 24 months old. He looks like a little teddy bear and thinks he is a lap dog. He gets along with Smokey, Roxy and Cleo great. He is being crated for the first time and isn't too happy, but not acting too badly. He can see the other dogs in their crates, but Buddy is out and he thinks he should be too. He is fully mature and playful in a more restrained fashion. He loves nothing better than getting petted and scratched on his hip. If you are interested in adopting or fostering Teddy, please contact Lesa and complete our new online application. Thank you Lesa for fostering Teddy!

Shelter Boxers

Baby Boy

This baby boy is in the shelter, he is smaller, sweet gentle and fearful of other dogs, though with work could be fine. He is in a pen with another dog and doing well. He met Sweety yesterday and was very nervous. He has some scarring on his face like he has been attacked, which would explain his timidity. If you are interested in this baby boy, please contact the Las Cruces Shelter. If you are interested please contact the Las Cruces Shelter.

Matilda

On 07 July, 2010 we rescued a female boxer approximately 3-5 years old who had apparently been dumped in Magdalena. She had over 300 ticks on her when we picked her up. She has demonstrated a very good disposition living with our other dogs (10) in all. She has shown no signs of aggression. She is currently housed with dogs ranging from approximately 4 lbs to about 110 lbs including 4 females. We are reluctant to seek a home for her here in Magdalena because we believe she probably came from near here and was probably used for breeding dogs for fighting and when the prolapsed uterus occurred she was no longer of any use as a breeding female and as a result was dumped. Matilda is being house trained, we are working with her to get her use to the collar and leash and her dog bed. She enjoys riding in the car or truck and has shown a great deal of loyalty to us. She has been good with strangers (adult and children) both here, at our residence, and on the street. If you are interested in fostering or adopting Matilda, please email or call 505-206-3565 or 575-418-8592. Marguerite Sweeney . Won't you help us by fostering Matilda!

For Adoption By Owner/Rescue

Koda

Hi, my name is Koda. I am a sweet fawn boxer who is 8 years old. I have lived with a blue heeler my entire life and I am very friendly. I like children and any human that will give me attention. I like dog bones to keep my teeth clean and love to go on walks. I would still be at home, but my owner died suddenly and now I need to find someone who will care for me. If you are interested in adopting Koda, please contact Cathy. If you can help me, please contact Cathy Hill @ 702.417.7968!

For Adoption by Owner - Disclaimer

BRA almost always has a lack of foster homes, and therefore regretfully cannot serve every single Boxer dog in New Mexico who is displaced. We devised this page as a way for the public to be notified of additional Boxer dogs in need, but BRA does not get involved with behavior evaluations, health checks, vaccinations, etc. You, as the adopter, must understand from the family and the dog's records, what health or behavioral issues may exist. Boxer Rescue of Albuquerque does not charge a fee to the family to list the dog here or to the adopter who "adopts" the dog. We do not advocate offering pets for free, but it is ultimately up to each individual family whether they will charge a fee to the new person acquiring the dog (it's best for the dog if s/he comes with a fee because it helps to weed out people who acquire unwanted pets for use in dog fighting rings or who sell to animal testing facilities, etc.). Though the Boxers on this page remain with their families and do not enter our rescue program, we still care very much about the dog's well being and fate. That is why we allow descriptions to be posted here, in hopes that we can help a Boxer find a better home than if the family were to just give the dog away or take him or her to a shelter.

Our FABO dogs Missy, Guera, Camber, Murphy and Milo have all found new homes!
