t scary shelter just in time! Since then I’ve been chillaxing, sleeping in soft beds, playing in my own back yard and waiting for my very last heat to end (yes, this nonsense at my age - can you imagine??). I’m going to get my spay next week, then I’ll be ready to start interviewing for my new furever family, yay! I love all the people I meet, I’m all wiggles and nub-wags especially if you’ll come outside with me and play ball or just watch me roll in the grass. I’ll even play in the water if you grab a hose and spray me! Since I’ve been in heat I haven’t met any other dogs or cats yet, but I totally ignore those crazy barking dogs next door. I get a little nervous when my people have to leave me alone, I might walk around the house whining for a while, but then I’ll take a nap. Don’t worry though, I’m totally house trained and I would never chew on anything - just please no crates, those really scare me! I sleep in my own bed at night, and I beat my foster mom in the battle of the bladder every night (she can’t hold it for 10 hours like I can). Whoever said I was incontinent was totes wrong! I do have some arthritis in my back (what lady my age doesn’t?), but I’m taking some pills that seem to help. Sometimes this makes my back feet slip out from under me, especially on slick floors. Carpet, grass and yoga mats are my friends! I can go for short walks before I get tired, I don’t mind the leash at all. I’m a little picky about food, but if you have a treat for me I’ll be very gentle taking it from you, and of course I’m polite when you put my food bowl down. If you have room in your home for this spunky lady and my ball, have your people call my people - I’d love to meet you! If you are interested in adopting me, please fill out our adoption application to begin the process. If you aren't able to adopt at this time, please consider making a much needed, tax-deductible donation to Legacy Boxer Rescue by clicking here.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
