oys first round draft pick, but I certainly love to eat tacos too), I was brought into the legacy boxer family after I was founded wandering the small town of Wichita Falls, TX. The shelter was full (I meant it is a super small shelter). Thank goodness LBR found me. I was severely underweight and had to undergo a procedure to remove some red lumps. After further testing they determined that it was skin cancer. Although, they got it all; my foster mom said that I will have to wear sun screen in the future if I am going to be on outside adventerous with my future family. My foster mom points out some scarring on my body; I don't remember much about my days on the street but I am sure it was from other animals. Good thing I don't remember becuase then I might be afraid of other dogs that want to be my friend! I live with another male boxer (he is also in the program), we got into a little scuffle in the begining but we have found a balance! Just so y'all know up front, I LOVE to give gentle boxrer hugs, sleep pretty much right on top of you (the humans call that cuddling, I think). I can be outside free to roam or in my crate; I am fine either way. I had a few "ooops I shouldn't mark" here moments in the begining but never major accidents, I prefer to do my business outside. When I am walking on my leash; I hear the humans say what a good job I do! I think my future family has to be okay with me being a BIG boy and teach my "personal" boundaries. I need a family that is going to love me forever and never forget my sunscreen! I hope you are out there and look forward to meeting you! Thanks for swinging by! Thank you Legacy Boxer and GO COWBOYS. 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.
