My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Bonded brother to Boots

Bubba is a big boy but thin. He knows commands of sit, stay, come, and no.  Bubba has the boxer crab walk.  He does not tell foster mom when he needs to go outside but when outside he is all business to do his business. Only accident in the house was his first day. Bubba is a treat to walk with, he stays right with foster mom on the left side and follows moms pace. 

Bubba likes to carry a dog toy around the house.  Bubba sleeps on a dog bed next to foster mom with brother Boots. He goes outside at 11:00, then to bed and decides he better get up at 8:30.  Bubba is always near by and  helpful  in cooking, cleaning, laundry and other household chores. He enjoys hugs and kisses and seems content and satisfied to lay and sleep on the couch while foster mom watches morning  TV shows. 

Bubba leaves all household stuff alone.  Bubba and brother Boots will play, run, and growl at each other to release energy in the fenced yard. Foster mom has not seen behaviors of flight and will come when called.  Bubba is great company and a true companion. He is accepting of the kennel and walks in without a push.  The only negative behavior is he is not accepting of cats and  does not enjoy their company.  Hopefully with time he will come to accept cats and not feel the need to terrorize and chase.

More about this rescue

Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue is a non-profit, 100% volunteer run rescue organization serving the needs of senior boxers and providing special care for medical/behavioral cases.

Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue is a 501(c)3 charity, registered with the Internal Revenue Service. Our EIN is 83-4480032. All donations are tax-free in accordance with IRS regulations.

MISSION STATEMENT

Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue (RCBR) is a non-profit, all volunteer, foster-based organization dedicated to providing loving homes for Boxer dogs – especially seniors, medically challenged, and those needing to start over again in an unfamiliar world.

We offer quality care for whatever time is left; it is not about the quantity of days, but rather the amount of love that can be shared during those days.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue (RCBR) believe all dogs deserve loving, responsible, committed homes. These homes may be adoptive homes, foster homes, or comfort care/hospice homes depending on the needs of the dog.

We take considerable care in finding good matches between human and dog. We will educate the families about the responsibilities and costs of bringing a rescued dog into their home and lives.

Boxers in our care are spayed or neutered, receive appropriate veterinary care, vaccinations, and treatment for pre-existing conditions. Dogs in the greatest need take priority to the extent our finances allow. In some cases, the need may be for comfort care with minimal medical interference.

We are determined to keep administrative expenses in check so that virtually every dollar taken in goes directly to the care of the dogs. Our organization remains committed to the welfare of the dog beyond the adoption process. Education and support will be offered to all foster, adoptive, and comfort care homes. If possible, a special scholarship program for Boxer dogs currently in loving and caring families will be utilized so the family is not forced to surrender their four-legged family member to a rescue.

RCBR recognizes that adoption alone is not the solution for overpopulation of pets. The rescue plans to work with other shelters, rescues, vet clinics, and state agencies regarding spay and neuter programs to prevent unwanted pregnancies.
