Boxer Dogs Available for Adoption in Middlesex, New Jersey

Holyfield is coming to NJBR! ❤️

This handsome boy was found as a stray and sadly has not been claimed. We are currently working with the shelter to get him neutered so he can make his move into rescue.

Poor Holyfield has something going on with his ear, so once he arrives with NJBR he will need to be examined by a veterinarian. It could be anything from cauliflower ear, long-term untreated allergies, growths, or something else entirely. We will make sure he gets the care he needs.

A few things we do know about Holyfield — the shelter staff says he is a very sweet boy. They estimate him to be around 6 years old. He has been dog tested and while he can be a bit dominant, he is also playful and happy.
