Boxer Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Bella, a stunning 2.5 year old boxer who needs a loving home FAST. Bella may have a few quirks, but at her core she is a devoted, loyal companion who will happily fill the role of both protector and snuggle buddy once she’s had time to build trust. She thrives in a calm, consistent environment and bonds deeply with her people.

Bella may do best as the only pet in the home, as she hasn’t been getting along with another dog in her current situation. She'll need slow introductions with the other dogs and would definitely do best with chill dogs who are not reactive to her. Due to her protective nature, we are also recommending an adult-only home where she can feel secure and relaxed without the added stimulation of visiting children. A low traffic home will be perfect for Bella. In the right setting, Bella truly shines and is an absolute sweetheart.

This smart girl already knows how to sit for treats, enjoys toys, and is comfortable being crated. Once she knows you, she’s affectionate, loving, and generous with kisses. Bella is petite — around 50 pounds, spayed, heartworm negative, and has mild flea allergies that should be easy to manage with routine care.

Bella’s need is urgent. After her owner became unable to care for her she moved in with extended family and it's not working out. Bella would love the chance to show you just how wonderful she can be in the right home. Keep reading to learn how to apply...
