Story
Meet Cody!!! Two months ago, Cody’s world turned upside down when his owner abandoned him. We couldn’t let this sweet boy face life alone, so we opened our hearts and home to him. Cody is about 1 year old, a handsome terrier mix with a big personality packed into a medium-sized frame. He’s full of energy and loves to keep busy zooming around the house, chasing balls, and proudly carrying his favorite bone. When playtime is over, Cody melts into your lap for back rubs and snuggles. He’s crate-trained, barely barks, and has the kind of lovable spirit that makes every day brighter. Here’s the thing: Cody needs a home where someone can give him the time and attention he deserves. We’re used to smaller dogs, and while we adore him, we know he’d thrive with an active family.

Story
Ellie is a sweet little hippo that likes mostly ladies but a few men. She'd be a great match for a single woman or a lesbian couple. She is not a great match for children. Once Ellie trusts you, she's the sweetest girl on earth. She loves to be held and will allow you to do anything with her. She does not like other dogs. She has not met any cats so we are unsure of them but do not recommend. If interested in applying for Ellie please email applications@boxertransfer.org

Story
Poor Trinity found herself on BCAS final call list. Her story is awful. She was a young active girl who broke her leg jumping. Her family didn't change her bandages and her leg became necrotic. She was surrendered to the county who immediately amputated her leg. Since then she's healed and returned to her normal happy, loving self. She loves to snuggle and play with toys. If you ave room in your heart for a healthy tripod, she's your girl. Trinity prefers all the attention and is best as a single family pet.

Story
Steel arrived at the shelter as a fearful stray, but with time, patience, and kindness, he has truly blossomed into a fun-loving, affectionate companion. Once he trusts you, Steel’s favorite things in the world are cuddling close and giving enthusiastic kisses!This smart boy already knows how to sit and shake your hand, and his sharp mind means he’s primed to learn so much more. Steel’s absolute favorite toy is a ball—toss it, and he transforms into a joyful, goofy pup in seconds. Because he can still be fearful and has a rough play style, Steel would do best in a home without young children. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving dog with tons of potential and an even bigger heart, Steel is ready to meet his person.If you are interested in meeting Steel, please visit the shelter during our open hours; Mon, Tues, Wed, Fri 10a-12:30p & 2p-4p, Thurs 10a-12:30p & 2p-6:30p, and Saturday 9a-1p. Adoption application can be filled out and approved during your meet-and-greet. If you have another dog in the home, plan to bring them for a meet before you complete the adoption!

Story
Smalls is a soft-hearted, shy Pittie with the sweetest soul you’ll ever meet! This handsome sweetheart loves gentle affection, cozy naps, and moving at his own comfortable pace. He blossoms with patient people who speak “quiet love” — soft voices, slow movements, and lots of reassurance. Smalls would thrive in a calm home where he can build confidence day by day and learn that the world isn’t such a scary place after all. Smalls may be timid, but he has a huge heart—and he’s ready to give it to someone special. If you’re looking for a gentle companion who will adore you with quiet devotion, Smalls is waiting for you to help him shine!If you are interested in meeting Smalls, please visit the shelter during our open hours; Mon, Tues, Wed, Fri 10a-12:30p & 2p-4p, Thurs 10a-12:30p & 2p-6:30p, and Saturday 9a-1p.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.All of the animals posted on our site have been temperament tested. While not all are in the immediate area, once we have processed and approved your application, we will move the dog to our adoptive area for you to meet, greet and hopefully adopt. Sometimes we will have more than one application on a dog. That does not mean it automatically goes to another family but you should be aware of the fact that until you are approved and set up for the meet/greet.. the dog could get adopted by another applicant.NOTE- DIAMOND IS LISTED AS A COURTESY FOR ANOTHER RESCUE ORGANIZATION. PLEASE SEE CONTACT INFO BELOW.CONTACT DEE AT k9rescueva@gmail.comDiamond is a beautiful, sweet, and affectionate blue pittie girl.  She is the SWEETEST thing. She seems to be a very low key lady. She is often catching a snooze in her bed. When briefly in foster she was a couch potato and did well with crate training! She does prefer to be the only pup in your life. She LOVES a good belly rub and butt scratch. Diamond gives kisses and will 'paw' you if you stop petting, she loves to lean against you for her scratches.Diamond now weighs about 70 lbs.  Diamond is quiet and reserved, and will bond quickly with her humans.  Diamond is dog-reactive and defensive when meeting other dogs, and shows a high prey drive for small fuzzy animals (cats, squirrels, possums,etc.);  she should not live with other pets.  Diamond is a big girl, and pulls strongly on her leash, she needs obedience and leash training.  She cannot go to dog parks, and must be handled carefully on walks where she may encounter other animals.  She's not actively aggressive, but will not back down if another dog acts aggressive towards her.  She would thrive in a home with a fenced in yard.  She just needs a home where she can focus on her people, and just give them all her love for years to come.  Diamond needs an experienced bully owner who understands the breed, and is willing to work with her.  IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN ADOPTING DIAMOND, PLEASE CONTACT: DEE AT k9rescueva@gmail.comVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 22, 2025, 1:22 am
