Amelia is doing wonderfully. She aced her first vet visit at 27 pounds and is already settling in beautifully. Potty training is nearly mastered, she’s now comfortable in her harness, and she’s learning leash skills quickly. She sits and stays like a pro, with a sweet, laid‑back personality and plenty of zoomies. In four weeks she’ll finish her vaccines and be all set..

Dolly (formally Addison) is an absolute delight—just a happy, silly puppy with a growing pile of favorite chew toys. She adores her big brother, who’s warming up to her more each day. She loves chasing him during his zoomies, then pausing to “oversee her realm” like the little queen she is. She’s joyful, playful, and settling in beautifully.

Freddie is home! He has become very comfortable here. We have a nice routine, and he loves being a Beyreuther. Freddie got his nails trimmed and his ears cleaned on Saturday, 9/5. We have our first visit to the vet on 9/12. A few notes of concern. Freddie continues to limp on his rear right leg. He is also aggressive toward other dogs, and he pulls on the leash. We are looking into training for him.
Tilly (formally Serenity) Tilly is really coming out of her shell, and we’re finally seeing the true Tilly—silly, snuggly, and full of zoomies. In classic Boxer fashion, she goes from 100 mph to fast asleep in seconds. She’s also bringing out Mack’s playful side, chasing him around the yard, “talking” to him, and encouraging toy time. He seems to love it…even if it wears him out.🤣
Huge congratulations to Mallory and the McDonald family on your Adoption Day
Here’s to new beginnings, full-body wiggles, couch cuddles, and all the joy a rescued Boxer brings.
Frannie has truly become part of the family. With more sustainable routines in place, she’s making steady progress, especially with the help of a trainer building her confidence and basic skills. Leash reactivity remains a challenge, especially with other dogs, but she’s improving with people. She loves morning snuggles, fluffy blankies, belly rubs, hot dogs, pupcups, and brings so much joy to our home.
Apollo has had a great first week with us. He’s mellow for a Boxer but is warming up beautifully to his new people and home. He’s still adjusting to being alone for a few hours, yet he’s learning we always come back. He loves relaxing on his futon and exploring the woods, and he’s settling in so well.

She’s growing more confident, more social, and more joyful as she settles in. It’s been wonderful watching her blossom into her happy, playful self.
Magnolia's big accomplishment this week was finally learning to sit! After months of watching her brother and sister do it on command, she seemed completely unaware of what we were asking—until something finally clicked. Now she’s mastered it, proud as can be. It’s a small milestone, but such a sweet sign of her continued progress.
Amos is four months old, 24 pounds, and thriving in week four. His DNA test shows a fun mix—Boxer, Cane Corso, Chow, Lab, and Great Pyrenees—and he’s projected to be a big boy, maybe even “A‑Moose.” He’s learning the invisible fence, training weekly, mastering sit‑and‑wait, improving with housebreaking, and snuggling nonstop. Vocal, goofy, smart, and so loved, he’s settled in beautifully.
Huge congratulations to Gigi and the McDonald family on your Adoption Day
Here’s to new beginnings, full-body wiggles, couch cuddles, and all the joy a rescued Boxer brings.
Benny (formerly Mayweather) is doing wonderfully, and we love him so much. After a month with us, he just gets better every day. He even had his first camping trip this past weekend and did amazing—he absolutely loved the water. He’s settling in beautifully, growing more confident, and becoming an even sweeter part of our family.
Maddie is doing wonderfully and has enjoyed a year full of adventures with her brother, Tucker. She loves chasing any ball she can find, getting treats, and going to doggy daycare. She even celebrated her 5th birthday last month with her friends. Maddie is the sweetest girl—loving, joyful, and making every single day feel special.
Jasmine is doing wonderfully and is every bit the happy, amazing girl we adore. She’s settled in, thriving, and soaking up every bit of love our family gives her. Her joy is unmistakable, and she’s become such a cherished part of our home. We love her lots, and she absolutely knows it.

Today marks three weeks with sweet Maizie, and she’s doing so well. She’s walking confidently on the leash and is less timid around the community. She isn’t a fan of the crate, so we leave her out for short periods and monitor her on camera—she does great. She’s still a picky eater, usually skipping breakfast, but eats daily. We feel so blessed to have her in our family.
Huge congratulations to Ozzie and the Brunk family on your Adoption Day
Here’s to new beginnings, full-body wiggles, couch cuddles, and all the joy a rescued Boxer brings.
Sadie (formally Darcy) has been part of our family for almost a year, and she’s thriving. She’s a beautiful, healthy, friendly girl who loves kids, other pups, and visits from her cousin dogs. She weighs about 46 pounds and has even started swimming in the pool. She enjoys digging in the garden and is a total cuddle bug. We’ve included some recent photos of her.
Artichoke (formerly Margo) is growing fast and full of goofy, endless energy. She’s discovered a love for running through the water—though she’s still unsure about actual swimming. She recently spent a week with her cousin, and the two became instant best friends. She’s thriving, playful, and blossoming into such a fun, spirited girl.
Nina (formally Lulu) She’s doing great—and has officially claimed the couch as her personal throne. I, on the other hand, have apparently been assigned the floor! Her confidence and comfort grow every day, and she’s clearly decided that prime seating is part of her new lifestyle. She’s settling in beautifully, full of personality, and already running the household in her own adorable way.

She’s fully mobile around the house now, mastering all the stairs and even jumping onto the couches with her older brothers. She’s thriving and unstoppable.
Jack (formally Scoober) is thriving and has become the perfect big brother to our current CBR foster—showing her the ropes, playing gently, and cuddling like a pro. He even had his first deer encounter and tried to convince her to play along. He’s happy, confident, and such a wonderful boxer. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better boy.

Gus (formally Biggie) is settling in beautifully—today is his first birthday, which makes it even sweeter. He was shy at first and very attached to me, but he’s gaining confidence, going outside on his own, and even relaxing on the porch. He loves his walks, warms up quickly to new people, and is learning to coexist with Ryleigh. His only challenge is his over‑excited greetings, which we’re working on. He already fits perfectly into our family.
Ethel (formerly Ayla) is settling beautifully into her new life—and her elegant new name suits her perfectly. She’s making steady progress with house training and adjusting well to all the changes. When she’s not practicing her potty routine, she loves guarding the porch, playing with her toys, and napping like a true queen. She’s graceful, goofy, and already such a lovely part of the family.
Cece (formally Cecilia) has settled in beautifully and her boxer traits are already shining. She’s endlessly curious, loves snuggling with her people, and always wants to be part of the pack. Her jumps and zoomies are impressive—just like the boxers we’ve loved before. She’s the sweetest girl, full of personality, joy, and that classic boxer spark.

Happy Gotcha Day to the sweetest white kid ever! It’s hard to believe Henley has been ours for seven amazing years. He’s still the quirkiest, cutest, goofiest, ball‑loving boy, and we adore every bit of his personality. We never imagined we could love him this much, but he’s truly become the heart
Tillie has settled in beautifully and is the sweetest, silliest little nugget—bringing nonstop joy, laughter, and energy to our home. She adores her toys, zoomies, and tossing things in the air to entertain herself. She’s affectionate, strong‑willed, and full of personality, with some reactivity and quirks we’re working through. Despite her challenges, she’s truly special, and we’re completely smitten with our spoiled little princess.
Bowen (formally Dexter) here—one month in and I’m growing fast at seventeen whole pounds! Thunder doesn’t bother me anymore, but the vacuum and lawn mower still need some negotiating. I helped Papa make “frozens” with yogurt, peanut butter, and honey, and after licking the beaters… wow. I’ve found my calling. Please put me in charge of quality control.
Blaze is fully acclimated and completely in tune with our routine. He loves spending time outside exploring and romping, and we’re together as much as the weather allows. When he can’t tag along, he settles comfortably in his crate without fuss. He’s thriving, confident, and clearly feeling right at home.
Huge congratulations to Rooster and the Blocker family on your Adoption Day
Here’s to new beginnings, full-body wiggles, couch cuddles, and all the joy a rescued Boxer brings.
Loki (formerly Marley) is thriving in his fourth week home. He had his second vet visit Wednesday—Distemper, Deworm, and Bordetella—and has gained five pounds in just two weeks. Potty training is steadily improving with fewer accidents, and he continues to get along wonderfully with his older sister, Martha. He’s happy, growing fast, and truly a joy to have..
Huge congratulations to Tobias and the Lichtenthaler family on your Adoption Day
Here’s to new beginnings, full-body wiggles, couch cuddles, and all the joy a rescued Boxer brings.
Gus (formerly Chip) had his second round of vaccines and charmed everyone at the vet. He braved last week’s rain like a champ—thanks to a giant umbrella—and continues meeting neighbors on quick walks, winning them over with his adorable face. Potty training is still in progress, but he’s doing great with “sit” and “crate.” Food remains his biggest motivation, and he’s been wonderfully sweet with visitors. He even enjoyed energetic playdates with Australian Shepherd friends before taking some well‑earned naps.
Beau is growing fast and still wants to do everything his big sister does. Potty training has stalled a bit—he’s having more accidents despite everyone doing all the right things—but we’re hoping it’s just a phase that passes quickly. He’s such a sweet boy, full of personality, and even with this setback, he continues to be a joy.
Buzz (formerly Boaz) is doing great! He’s really getting the hang of potty training and continues to get along wonderfully with both his fur sibling and his toddler siblings. His sweet personality shines, and he loves to play. The vet said he was perfect—no surprise to us! He’s also had fun playdates with his sister Buggs, who my parents adopted.
Henry (formerly Dozer) had his first kayak adventure with Mark this weekend and did wonderfully. He’s taking every new experience in stride, growing more confident with each one, and showing just how adaptable and brave he is. This little guy is blossoming into such a steady, happy companion, and it’s been a joy watching his confidence shine.
Huge congratulations to Buggs and the Papuga family on your Adoption Day
Here’s to new beginnings, full-body wiggles, couch cuddles, and all the joy a rescued Boxer brings.
Josey (formerly Josie) is still doing great and has become noticeably more relaxed around the house. We joke that her ears popping up means she’s ready to party, and tonight’s photo proves it—she had zoomies right after. She’s settling in beautifully, showing more confidence each day, and her playful personality is shining through.
Miss Ruby (formerly Reyna) is settling in beautifully, and we’re so happy to have her. She and Rufus have become instant best friends—playing hard and napping even harder. She has her puppy checkup, shots, and worm test on 7/21, and we’ll share any updates from the vet. We’re all, including Rufus, absolutely thrilled to have this sweet little girl.
Maisy (formerly Paisley) is doing wonderfully and settling in so well. She has her follow‑up vet appointment today for her next round of vaccines, and everything is right on track. She’s growing, thriving, and adjusting beautifully to her new routine. We’re excited to keep watching her progress and will share more after her appointment.
Daisy (formerly Selene)She’s doing wonderfully at 28.9 pounds and just received her second lepto vaccine. She’ll get her flu shot soon, and her spay is scheduled for November. She loves cucumbers, carrots, and hunting horseflies, and while deer are scary, she adores all dogs. She rides everywhere with me—even to my son’s speech therapy, where she’s a celebrity. Smart, chill, and so loved, she’s been the sweetest blessing to our family.
Luna Rae (formerly Nadia) Luna Rae is growing fast and already showing all those classic boxer traits. She’s losing teeth each week—we’ve even saved three for her puppy folder—and she loves her enrichment toys. Her big brother Patch now grooms her almost daily, and watching their bond deepen has been such a joy. She’s blossoming into the sweetest, happiest little girl.
Sugar Ray 11 (formally PennHe’s doing great and has fully embraced his role as chief decorative‑plant pruner and remover. He loves riding in the car, snuggling on the couch, and generally being the sweetest little companion. His personality shines through in everything he does, and he brings so much joy with his goofy “gardening,” cuddles, and everyday adventures.
Maggie has settled in beautifully over her first 2½ weeks. She and her Lab brother, Cole, get along well—though both are a little jealous for attention. She’s eating great, loves her new toys, and proudly keeps them in her crate. She comes to the office with me and has claimed the couch as her favorite hangout. She’s truly fitting right in.

Blue (formerly Beluga)is settling in wonderfully with his new sister Bailey and his cat brother Leo. He’s full of energy, and Bailey loves having a playful companion. The vet noted he’s underweight, so he’ll be rechecked next week, and recommended waiting until around his first birthday for neutering. He’s doing great overall, and we’ll share more updates soon.
Seven (formally Agent 007) is still doing great. We tried helping him beat the heat with a kiddie pool, but he’s convinced it’s not for him. Once the weather cools off, we’re excited to show him off around the neighborhood—he’s settling in so well and growing more confident every day. He’s a sweet, steady boy, even if he prefers to stay dry.
Luna has officially been with us for two wonderful years, and she’s still our tiny ball of chaos and sunshine. She runs, jumps, wrestles, and chases her ball for hours—just don’t ask her to fetch it. She’s an A/C‑loving girl who adores snuggling and wrestling with her brother Tyson and the kids. She’s the perfect extra layer of crazy in our loud, happy home, and we’re so grateful CBR brought her to us.
Huge congratulations to Mercy and the Rudy family on your Adoption Day
Here’s to new beginnings, full-body wiggles, couch cuddles, and all the joy a rescued Boxer brings.
Benny had a quiet, steady week and continues to do well—sleeping through the night, eating great, and settling into routine. His vet visit Wednesday went smoothly, with perfect blood work and a clean physical exam. We’ll revisit his incontinence concerns since nothing obvious showed up. For now he’s wearing a wrap indoors, and he handled a long road trip to SC with no issues.
Bruno (formally Pedro) is doing well and has a vet appointment tomorrow for his next round of shots. Potty training is still hit or miss, but his crate training is improving every day. He’s eating with enthusiasm—sometimes a little too much—and still tries to sample anything he can find. He’s a happy, busy boy who’s settling in nicely.

Here’s to new beginnings, full-body wiggles, couch cuddles, and all the joy a rescued Boxer brings.
Iris is doing so well full of energy, sweetness, and plenty of T‑Rex moments. Walks are improving, especially when she burns off energy first, and she still adores her Wobble Wag Giggle Ball. She plays independently, loves blueberries, and is great with the boys. Her kennel stay went wonderfully, and the trainer reported no issues. We’re so proud of how relaxed, playful, and confident she’s becoming.
Bruce is doing wonderfully at six months home and has become a total daddy’s boy—he follows me everywhere and insists on a “hug” every time we settle on the couch. With the warmer weather, he’s been soaking up every chance to sunbathe and roll in the grass. This sweet snuggle bug has been the perfect addition to our family.
Trouble (formerly Bella) She’s doing wonderfully and her sassy personality is in full bloom—especially when she decides it’s time to get up and demand her morning treat. She’s incredibly food‑motivated, which makes her a quick, eager learner. Smart, wiggly, and full of joy, she greets every homecoming like a spring‑loaded celebration. She recently started Apoquel for her toe inflammation, and it’s helping. She’s a happy, healthy, wonderful companion.
Huge congratulations to Daisy and the Shoffner family on your Adoption Day
Here’s to new beginnings, full-body wiggles, couch cuddles, and all the joy a rescued Boxer brings.
Hogarth Keaton (formerly Chitty chitty bang bang) is doing really well. He loves the yard, eats great, and happily relaxes on the couch for TV time. His only challenge is nervous peeing, which is improving and mostly triggered by new or exciting things—like the treadmill. We’re also working on leaving him alone longer, and he handled a three‑hour stretch perfectly. He’s settling in beautifully.
Huge congratulations to Ember and the Cook family on your Adoption Day
Here’s to new beginnings, full-body wiggles, couch cuddles, and all the joy a rescued Boxer brings.
Mimi - We’ve officially hit one year of loving this smart, sweet, low‑energy, one‑eyed girl. She still enjoys her daily one‑mile walks (with plenty of treats), zoomies with her human brother, occasional sleepovers in his bed, morning bananas with Dad, and all the country wildlife. We’re so grateful to CBR—and to Marissa—for keeping her safe until we were ready for her.
Domino—Big D himself—continues to be the bestest boy on the planet. He’s our third adoption from families who’ve passed and somewhere around our 20th CBR pup, give or take. We’re grateful every day for this hunk of burning love. He’s sensitive to his humans, adores barking at the neighbor’s dog, and loves chasing sky raisins and backyard wildlife. He’s perfect.
Finn is growing and officially entering doggy puberty—always an adventure. His progress has been steady, with very few accidents, though we still have to limit his water since he can’t hold much yet. He’s also shedding an unbelievable amount, far more than a typical boxer, thanks to his mixed genetics. We joke that every other day we sweep up enough hair to make another Finn.

Buddy (formerly Cisco) is doing so well and has become such a loved member of the family. He’s wonderfully gentle with the little ones—especially the girls—and greets guests politely without jumping. He’s still a master food‑sneaker when the coast is clear, especially around the kids. We adore him and love seeing him thrive. He’s truly a great boy.
Gracie Lou - I’m certain I’ve hit the jackpot with Gracie—she’s truly the best dog. Her only challenge is not getting along with other dogs, which makes neighborhood walks tricky. She tested heartworm‑negative and likely had Lyme in the past but shows no symptoms now. I wish I had more of her history, but she’s happy, thriving, and deeply loved. We’re perfect together.
Moose (formerly Lucian) has settled in beautifully—sweet, cuddly, playful, and so smart. He already has an auto‑sit and quickly learned down and shake. Crate training is coming along, even if he’d rather be with his people. House training is going great, and he loves coming to work with me, soaking up attention from the staff. We’re so grateful for this wonderful boy.
Junie (formally Kiki) is doing great and has fully settled into her routine with our family. She and my daughter do everything together—even joining in for family Uno games—and she’s claimed her favorite napping chair as her throne. She’s happy, playful, and thriving. She heads to the vet this week for her wellness check, and we know she’ll charm everyone there.

It’s been a little over six months since we brought sweet, terrified Jane home, and she has blossomed into an affectionate, athletic cuddlebug and queen of zoomies. She’s learning to accept new people with repetition and had a wonderful visit with family and their dog. Though her health challenges continue—rising kidney values, incontinence, and an upcoming mast cell tumor removal—she recognized her vet, a huge win. Through it all, she’s happy, resilient, and so deeply loved.
Cooper continues to do great! He’s especially attached to my husband—getting so excited when he comes home and nudging his way in for snuggles whenever attention is being handed out. At mealtime he runs straight to his kennel and waits patiently for his food with treats on top. Tonight’s fireworks, however, are not his favorite. He’s such a sweet, devoted boy.
Huge congratulations to Lucian and the McGinnis family on your Adoption Day

Kona (formerly Karma) continues to do wonderfully. We’re still convinced she’s part cat—stretching in the sun and sliding under every low piece of furniture she can find. A vet visit ruled out a UTI, though she did gain two more pounds. A trip to Lowe’s turned into a fan club of kids and adults wanting to meet her. We adore her silly, sweet personality.
Huge congratulations to Dewey and the McCarthy family on your Adoption Day
Here’s to new beginnings, full-body wiggles, couch cuddles, and all the joy a rescued Boxer brings.
Gypsy is settling in beautifully and has discovered the joy of watching the world from the safety of the screened porch. We even had a first—she carried one of her yak cheese sticks to her favorite sleeping spot at the head of the bed. She’s not chewing them yet, but they make perfect hiding spots for her Farmer’s Dog treats. She’s gentle, observant, and adjusting at her own sweet pace.
Zeusy Boy (formerly Zeus) has been living his best life these past few weeks. He made new friends and even enjoyed the beach—possibly for the first time—soaking up the cool shaded sand and not minding the water at all. He was a perfect gentleman the entire trip, earning compliments everywhere. We’re hoping for many more beach adventures with him.
Remi (formerly Scout) is doing great and has settled into wonderful routines. He happily expects his morning walks and even his nightly tooth‑brushing. He loves sunbathing and playing with his toys, and he’s brought so much joy to our family. He’s thriving, content, and such a bright spot in our home. We’re so grateful for him.
Captain (formerly Phoenix) is doing wonderfully and has settled in so well. He loves his long walks, boat rides, and cuddles with the kids—they’re his favorite. He’s still visiting the vet monthly for weigh‑ins and continues to grow and thrive. He’s a happy, confident boy, and we’re so glad he’s part of our family.
Dreidel(formerly Vadel) is thriving and has settled in beautifully. He’s confident, happy, and already feels like he’s been part of the family forever. His personality shines more each day, and it’s clear he’s right where he belongs. We’re so grateful to have him and love watching him continue to flourish.
Huge congratulations to Zeke and the Kemper family on your Adoption Day
Here’s to new beginnings, full-body wiggles, couch cuddles, and all the joy a rescued Boxer brings.
Piper is doing great and is now a healthy 52 pounds. She loves playing with small squeaky rubber toys and chasing her big brother, Bear. Daily walks are her favorite, and she’s endlessly curious about squirrels and deer along the way. She’s thriving, full of energy, and settling into her routine beautifully.
Lucy, (formerly Cloud), has been with us for 6 months now (2 months as a foster, 4 adopted). She is the sweetest trouble maker you ever met. She loves chasing down frogs in the yard, chewing sticks and digging every chance she gets. She loves our older Boxer Samson and is keeping him young with all the play time. She has really attached herself to me and follows me everywhere I go. I can't imagine life without her. She is a mess, but our favorite mess!! We are so grateful to CBR for bringing her into our family.
Penny had her week‑2 vet visit and everything looks great—still hookworm negative, yay! Everyone adored her, as always. She’s the calmest, chillest boxer and made big progress this week: sitting for her leash, learning the Kong, discovering zoomies, and even finding her bark. She’s relying less on stuffed animals, enjoying more freedom, and loving her raw meals. We’re so proud of her.
It’s hard to believe Jack has been with us a month already—he’s doing so well. His head infection is finally clearing after stronger meds, and his personality is shining. When he wants something, he “talks” to us, which is adorable. He’s taking to training beautifully and even picks up cues on his own. We’re so grateful CBR brought this sweet boy into our lives.
Huge congratulations to Baxter and the Byrd family on your Adoption Day
Here’s to new beginnings, full-body wiggles, couch cuddles, and all the joy a rescued Boxer brings.
Lola (formally Willie Ruth) has grown so much this month and is truly becoming part of our daily life. Her vet checkup went wonderfully, she’s gaining confidence in new environments, and her nutrition and routines are thriving. She’s gentle, thoughtful, eager to learn, and even building sweet bonds with Kiki. Whether adventuring or cuddling, she’s relaxed, happy, and clearly knows she’s home. We adore her.
Devin (formally Opie) is doing well in rehab, with noticeable improvement in his leg each week. I can’t wait for the day this is behind him and he can just be a normal dog again. Despite the medical hurdles, he’s a happy guy—always seeking attention and, of course, food. He’s handling everything with such a sweet, resilient spirit.
Barney is doing great and still insists he’s a lap dog, even though he’s gotten so big. His goofy, affectionate personality shines more every day. Barkley is also doing wonderfully, and the two make a perfect pair. They bring so much joy to the home, and it’s been amazing watching them grow and settle in so well.
Willa Mae has been with us almost two months and is doing wonderfully. She loves attention and has become a favorite with everyone. She was spayed last Friday—after a tough couple of days, she’s feeling much better. Now that she’s fully vaccinated, she’s enjoying park walks and new adventures. She and her brother are bonding more every day.
Annie (formerly Gidget) is doing great and her playful, silly personality keeps us smiling. She loves being with her people and is always ready for fun—running around the yard, playing with her soccer ball, or heading out for walks. She brings so much joy to our home, and we’re having the best time with her as part of our family.

Phoebe (formerly Fifi) is settling in beautifully with her brother Zeppelin and her human siblings. She loves her toys—especially tennis balls, even if none survive more than a day—and enjoys sunbathing and running with Zeppelin. She’s still a little unsure of new people, mostly men, but is adjusting well. She’s a total Mama’s girl and never far from my side.
Huge congratulations to Aslan and Caesar and the Bartlett & Godwin family on your Adoption Day
Here’s to new beginnings, full-body wiggles, couch cuddles, and all the joy a rescued Boxer brings..
Gunner (formerly Spud) Gunner continues to do wonderfully and has fully settled into his routine and new family. He was neutered last week and handled it like a champ—already back to his happy, energetic self. He’s up to 58 pounds at 10 months, growing in confidence every day. The clinic staff adored him, calling him super chill. He’s our sweet, quiet boy who gets spicy when it’s time to play, and we feel so blessed to have him.
Olive is doing wonderfully and settling in beautifully. She’s started playing with other dogs at the park, and she and her little brother are already two peas in a pod. Her vet visit went great with a clean bill of health. We’re still working on leash skills and meeting with a trainer Friday, but overall she’s thriving.
Mr. Jack is adjusting beautifully, and his personality shines more every day. He mastered the stairs quickly and loves spending time outside sunbathing and hanging out with his new sister. His resilience has amazed us as he settles into his new home. He’s currently in a cone for a healing spot, but the vet hopes he’ll be cone‑free next week.
Chief is still doing wonderfully and had a great trip to the lake house with Rose and the tripod chiweenie—they all get along perfectly. He and Rose even played keep‑away last night, and he’ll meet the last family boxer, Rye, this week. He’s fitting in so well it feels like he’s been ours much longer. We’re so grateful for him.
Bella (formerly Tessa) continues to do wonderfully, and as she’s grown more comfortable, her personality is really shining through. She’s full of energy, goofiness, and all the snuggles you’d expect from a young boxer. She’s an absolute joy, and we’re so grateful to have her as part of our family. She fits in perfectly and makes every day brighter.
Chubby is doing great and settling in so well—he’s quickly becoming a true part of the family. His sweet personality is shining through more each day, and he already seems right at home. It’s been such a joy watching him adjust and bond with everyone. He’s happy, loved, and fitting in beautifully.
Huge congratulations to Loki and the Odem family on your Adoption Day.
Here’s to new beginnings, full-body wiggles, couch cuddles, and all the joy a rescued Boxer brings.
Jax (formerly Bronx) has been with us since January and was a foster fail from day one. He just finished his final heartworm injections and is handling recovery like a champ. His appetite is returning, and he’s feeling better each day. He’s a wonderful addition—minimal bad habits, lots of personality—and we’re hopeful for a smooth recovery.
Penny (formally Tessa) has been with us a week and is slowly finding her confidence. She still prefers the safety of her crate and is nervous with new noises, doorways, and the big backyard, but she’s learning. She loves peanut butter, Farmers Dog, and treats, and even jumps onto the big bed. She’s so sweet, so loved, and already making progress.
Joy has settled in beautifully and fits right into our family. She and Spock play together all day, even choosing to share a bed at night with no issues at all. She loves car rides and jumps with excitement the moment we pick up the keys. She’s an absolute delight, and our whole family adores her. Thank you for bringing her to us.
Evie (formerly Brie) She’s become a full‑fledged member of the family—honestly, she decided that on day one. She’s settled in, has her routine, and insists on being part of every family event. She’s even claimed one of our pillows for bedtime. The cats are still cautious, but she’s gentle and patient. She’s absolutely a Lukis now, and she’s here to stay.
Jack (formerly Mavis) is settling in so well and showing more of his sweet personality every day. He had a great time at the dog park, even without playmates, and is already loving his new routine. He’s adjusting beautifully and seems truly happy in his new home. He’s such a good little boy and a joy to have around.
Huge congratulations to Francine and the Nickerson family on your Adoption Day.

Cody is such a happy boy, and his personality has really blossomed since he first came into rescue. He’s goofy, full of charm, and keeps us laughing every day. His love for food is unmatched, and he brings so much joy to the home. He’s settling in beautifully and showing more of his sweet, silly self all the time.
Gouda is settling in beautifully since we picked him up on 4/18. He’s still nervous with strangers but shows no aggression and warms up with reassurance. He and Marlee are getting along well, and he’s doing wonderfully with crating, sleeping, and eating. He’s full of energy, gaining confidence, and already feels like such a sweet, goofy part of our family.
Huge congratulations to Finn and the Thomas family on your Adoption Day.

Minnie (formerly Gisele) Minnie is feeling so much better—her respiratory infection cleared beautifully after antibiotics and steroids, and she’s back to being her sweet, beloved self. Everyone still adores her; my nieces even FaceTimed her while on vacation. Her weight looks great, too. I’m so grateful to be her mom, and she continues to be the best little sister anyone could ask for.
Ghost (formerly Fletcher) is doing well as we hit week two. We’re still working on keeping playtime a little less rowdy, but he’s settling in nicely. He loves watching out the window for anything to bark at, and every morning he climbs into bed the moment my husband gets up—either on top of me or pressed as close as possible. He’s such a sweet, clingy boy.
Huge congratulations to Roman and the Benfield family on your Adoption Day.

Milo is doing wonderful! We just celebrated his first birthday on April 11th, and he loved his little bark‑day cake. I can’t believe he’s already one—time truly flies. He brings us so much joy, and we love him more every day. I’ll share pictures soon. 
The Shays.
Huge congratulations to Laney and the Williamson family on your Adoption Day.

Bodi (Formally Clubber) Bodi is doing great and truly living his best life. He and his sister Bella are inseparable—playing, exploring, and then curling up together in their new queen‑size bed, which was meant for a guest room but quickly became the Bodi & Bella suite. He brightens every day, and we couldn’t imagine life without him. Bodi—is thriving. ♥️
Maverick has been with us for just four days, and he’s already growing and changing so much. We’re working on basic commands and helping him learn not to jump—his biggest challenge so far. He’s doing wonderfully, settling in beautifully, and we already adore him. We’ll check in again soon with more updates.
Ava continues to thrive and is as food‑motivated as ever—maybe a little too much, since she’s starting to get pudgy, so we’re working on managing her obsession. She’s no longer food‑aggressive, is doing better with strangers at home, and does great in public. She loves hiding in the grass to “ambush” Maddux, convinced he can’t see her. She’s doing wonderfully.
Huge congratulations to Otis and his adoptive family on your Adoption Day.
