Harry is the most Awesome loving happy little guys you’ll ever meet! Loves other dogs, he’s very gentle and loves to snuggle, ride in car, and leash walks like a champ doing his victory lap at the Westminster Show! This little love is Crate & potty trained, Neutered, and Fully vetted. Harry was an unclaimed stray from a southern kill shelter who came to us dirty, unvetted, full of flees, worms & bald from ringworm and fleas. He’s healthy and happy as we’ve treated his flea & ringworm issues and hair has grown in very soft & silky. Harry loves other dogs & hadn’t met a human he doesn’t like & will ask gently if he can sit on your lap but respects if you say no, He like rides in car too. Plays nice with toys… Harry is the perfect dog for experienced adopters and to those new to dogs. IF INTERESTED IN ADOPTING YOU MUST INCLUDE YOUR NAME, CITY & STATE, # of people & pets in home AND TELL US ABOUT HOW HARRY WOULD FIT IN WITH YOUR DAILY ROUTINE & YOUR LIFESTYLE. Application & home visit required. Pet-prospective adopter meetings are reserved for verified applicants only and take place in Southern Vermont. We do not adopt 1st come 1st served but rather accept & review multiple applicants so that we can choose the home most suitable to meet our dogs needs. Our Rescue is Foster Home Volunteer run and Depends on Donations to continue our important work. Please donate via PayPal.me/BoxerRescueVT thank you for your interest.

We accept owner surrenders & save dogs from death row and other urgent situations. We especially love labradors, Standard Poodles, Giant Schnauzers, Doodles, Newfoundlands, mini schnauzers, Bostons, Bulldogs, Boxers, chihuahuas, Pomeranians and all breeds and mixes. We accept dogs into our program as finances and room in foster homes permits. All our dogs are given full vet exams, neutered/spayed , Vaccinated, Tested and treated for parasites, groomed, micro-chipped, and put on flea, tick and heart worm preventative. Our foster home volunteers work to get each dog crate trained, housebroken, recovered from past life traumas and teach social and home skills.
We Match the individual dogs personality, energy level and other needs to the what applicant has to offer, and we place dogs with the home we feel is best match for the dog.
Our primary concern is the well being of the pets taken into our care, sometimes a person is approved to adopt- but we might suggest a pet more suited to their attributes... Rather then do a mis-match that may result in dog being returned to rescue for not "fitting in".
