I am sad to say that our 1yr old female fawn boxer is in need of a home. Candi is such a funny, sweet dog. She is fabulous with our 3 kids and is even pretty gentle to our cat, Niblet. We are looking at accepting a job that will take us out of country for 2 yrs. I want to find her a great lovinghome now, before we get any more attached to her. She would really do great if she had a playmate, but not necessary. Any suggestions or advice is welcome, I am new to this.
Thanks!
Cindi :)

will get some soon...

Hi! I know what a bad mom I am for not posting a pic. I will get some in next few days on here. Have you seen the new kid movie out called "Good Boy" ? No joke Candi looks almost identical to the boxer in that movie. Wow you live in texas..that is quite a distance from Oregon! I will work on the pics soon. Thanks for asking...she is so wonderful I know she will make someone happy for many years!

Do you have any friends or family members who would be willing to take her in for a few years until your return? I know that's a lot to ask of someone when you will be gone for several years, but it never hurts to ask people! If that's not an option, try to find a boxer rescue in your area and surrender your dog to them. That's the best way to find a good home for her. Rescues carefully screen all applicants before adoptions take place, and they provide follow-up to make sure that the new home is a good match. It's possible that your nearest rescue will be full and won't be able to take your dog in themselves right now, but they will probably still offer you support in what you need to look for in a new home - if they can't take your dog, ask them if they will give you a copy of the form they use for home visits, the application form, and a sample contract. Those items will give you a good idea of what to look for in a potential home and will help you you ask all the right questions before sending your girl home with someone else.

If your girl is not spayed yet, please do that before you start looking for a new home for her. I know you wouldn't want someone taking her just to turn her into a breeding machine. (And a rescue group would require that she be spayed before they could take her anyway.)

looking for a boxer

Cindi,
I am so excited after reading your post today! My husband and I have been interested in a female boxer puppy for a while now and we live in Oregon! My husband had grown up with a family dog named buff that was half boxer and half german shepard. When she passed away a few years ago, it really left a void for both of us. We currently have one dog already; Lady is a MinPin. We rescued her about 2 years ago. She was a little rough around the edges when we first adopted her - very timid and didn't even really know how to play. Now she has grown so much and we can see from how she relates to other dogs when we take her out, she really would like a playmate. We also have two cats (trouble and spooky) who are very sweet and would appreciate another sister. We don't have any children, but I think that is probably best considering how much attention puppies need :) We respect our animals not only as much as we do people but they are truly a part of our family. I really, really hope that you we can have the opportunity to meet Candi I know that we can provide her with the love that she deserves.
Thank you, Bonita

I have submitted an application for rescue. We are looking for a female. The funny thing is that our dog, Hogan, looks a lot like the dog in Good Boy too! It would be great to have matching dogs. The problem is that we are in PA. I have never checked into shipping a dog before, but I know it is possible. In fact, my company has a lot of executives who actually live in Portland and in Pa. They travel back and forth a lot on the corporate jet. Are you any where near the Portland area?

Cindi,

I am in Cashmere WA, between Leavenworth and Wenatchee, and have been looking for a Boxer but the resources in this area are quite sparce. I was delighted to see your posting. However, I am sure it is heartbreaking for you to have to leave Candi behind. My son and I would love to have her if it doesn't work out with Bonita. We have a 6 month old male Beagle who would love some companionship. My son is 7 1/2 and we are putting him and Regal through obedience classes when they start in May. I would love to participate at the same time with my own dog! We have a fenced back yard and live out in the country. We love our animals (we also have 2 guinea pigs) - they are our family. I promise we will give Candi a good home and we would be happy to provide you pictures via email if you desire. I would be happy to drive to down to wherever you are to do introductions. I have also submitted numerous applications to various Boxer Rescue organizations in an attempt to rescue a dog but so far no one has done a home visit, probably because we are not near a rescue area. I would love an opportunity to expand our family. And our puppy really, really wants a companion. Please let me know if Candi is still available and there is anything else that you would like to know.

We are in oregon and would be willing to foster her if needed.
we would love to adopt her but are not sure that another baby is in any of our babys best interest's right this moment as I am actually in the potty training/hook on stage with our youngest boxer baby.

I know more than a few people in oregon inclueding many show homes who would love to take a rescue in.
