Boxer puppies and dogs in Hatboro, Pennsylvania

Bella is an adorable petite bunny-eared girl weighing just 42 pounds who is a sweet, wiggly, and shy lady, Bella doesn’t ask for much; she loves the simple things like hanging out with her family and going on walks. Bella has a reserved yet affectionate demeanor. Adopted in 2022 after being turned in to ACCTPhilly as a stray, Bella spent several happy years with her owner until they surrendered her back to the ACCT Philly in February 2026. When her second stay there became too long and with dozens of dogs entering the shelter daily, Bella was Timestamped. Fortunately, we were able to pull her and she is now blossoming in her foster home! Bella does have a noted history of resource guarding dating back to her original shelter stay, but with proper management and separation for meals and fun chews, she has shown she is completely capable of living with another dog and she has a history of being okay with cats. With her behavioral needs in mind, Bella requires a loving household that is equipped to manage her resource guarding, and ensure that any food or high-value items are given under supervision and while Bella is separated from any other resident pets. With additional training and proper management of her known behavioral needs, Bella is sure to bring light, love, and joy to her new family. Bella loves cuddles, loves going for walks and walks well on leash, loves to talk to her people using grunts and groans.

Hi, my name is Ol Roy and I am a 2-year-old Boxer mix. Please visit our website www.homeatlastdogrescue.com for more information, our complete listing of available dogs, and to submit an application. PA kennel license #5310 100 W Main St Lansdale, PA 19446

  Lars is a handsome 2 years old, 76 lb. Terrier/Boxer mix brindle with white paws and bib around his neck. He's a big goofy people person and a love bug.  He loves to play, chew bones and give big sloppy kisses.  He is crate trained and appears to be good with other dogs and cats and school aged children. He does jump sometimes so probably not a good choice for a family with small children. Lars is neutered and has all of his vaccines.  He is being rehomed due to his owner's change in employment and just not being home very much to give him the loving home that he deserves.  Please email us at AlmostHome4Dogs@Yahoo.com for an application if Lars sounds like the right dog for your family.

Hey there! I'm Bart, a 1-year-old Boxer mix who arrived at the shelter as a stray on June 1st. I'm ready to leave the shelter behind for good and find my forever home! I'm a little shy here in the shelter but I'm hoping to find an active family soon, with owners who can match my enthusiasm and zest for life. I've met another dog here during my time at the shelter, and we said "hi" to each other but I'm still nervous and wasn't quite ready for playtime yet. If you have a doggo at home already, I'm happy to meet them at the shelter prior to adoption to see if we get along! I recently got to spend a day at Art City Vets where their team took great care of me and got me all neutered so I'm ready to be adopted! And I'm pretty sure I overheard them say I was their best patient EVER. (Okay, maybe they say that to all the dogs, but I was a really good boy!) Want to meet me? Stop by ACCT Philly and say hi! Open every day from 10am to 6pm. VIDEOS Bart loves to be pet! https://youtu.be/lCx-qVudHhI?is=0hvD8tKERlEUU-CS Cuddling Bart: https://youtube.com/shorts/bZW7eqTxjFs?is=Taez0ibFtDs9fgpD Met Larnold https://youtube.com/shorts/okYO7SlB_rQ?si=iKYcA5oxygINdCoZ Met Larnold2: https://youtu.be/9REhQ5Mdg0Q?si=afGHgy6Pm-n1XZ1I Met Larnold3: https://youtube.com/shorts/VXcF_TVSZE0?si=lph8TZ33jqXaafst Theodore and Bart quick fence meet: https://youtu.be/vO8dnwXZgdg Theodore and Bart leashed meet 1: https://youtu.be/hL6TGUuRxdA Theodore and Bart leashed meet 2: https://youtu.be/2rTLTnDXjRU BEHAVIORAL INFORMATION Per volunteer 6/15 : I took Bart out Friday evening.
