Story
Outlaw is trying to keep up his tough guy image...But he`s really the biggest softy ever. When you hear we have a dog named Outlaw, you might be thinking of Waylon Jennings, tough as leather highwaymen, and nights spent out under the stars. Nothing could be further from the truth! Outlaw would love to go for occasional adventures with his people, but would prefer a meander over a hike. His laid-back personality would make him a great buddy to binge your favorite show with. If you want a sweet dog to simply hang out with, Outlaw is the guy for you!He begged us not to tell you that he enjoys a weekly medicated spa treatment in the tub, but he really does (he has itchy skin). And his apoquel helps keep his skin supermodel worthy. His skin care routine keeps him feeling and looking his best! You see, Outlaw doesn’t want to be a desperado - he wants to be your baby. If you are interested in meeting Outlaw, please visit the shelter during our open hours; Mon, Tues, Wed, Fri 10a-12p & 2p-4p, Thurs 10a-12p & 2p-5:30p, and Saturday 9a-1p. Complete an adoption application online to be pre-approved for adoption. If you do not own your home, bring consent from the property owner to have a dog on the property. As always, if you have another dog in the home, plan to bring them for a meet before you complete the adoption. Adoption fees: 6m and younger $250, 7m-5y $200, 6y-10y $150, 11y and older $100. Watch for adoption specials!!

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
NAME: Poppy BREED: Pit Bull Mix BIRTHDAY: 2023 WEIGHT: 50lbs ADOPTION FEE: $250   Poppy came to use from a small rural shelter in NC. We had pulled two lovely beagles from them and were happy to work with them again to save one more (even if "one more" was a half-grown pup!). Poppy was just like her videos- nervous but sweet and eager to make new dog friends. She's not sure about new people just yet (although she absolutely loves her foster mom and is a constant shadow/snuggle buddy), but just needs some time to get to know new human friends. She has shown no aggression towards strangers but may be a little rough for very small children. Poppy is house and crate trained, rides well in the car and needs work on leash walking. She lives with dogs of all sizes but would be fine as an only dog. Canine friends should be ready for a rough and pushy playmate, or ready to correct if they're only interested in a casual friendship. We do not recommend a home with cats. Fast approaching her terrible twos, Poppy will need basic training and structure to thrive in her new home. Of course, if you don't mind a little bit of chaos she is fine "as is"! Why take a chance on Poppy? There's nothing really extraordinary about her, she's just a regular brown pit bull. But that's why she needs your help- she has been overlooked for almost a year, and deserves more than a life in foster care. Please consider this good girl, or share if you are not able to adopt at this time.April 9, 2024, 6:07 pm

Story
Charlene just celebrated her sixth birthday in a loving foster home. She has one birthday wish. That wish is to find her forever family. This pretty girl arrived to BHS on a December evening. She was picked up by her amazing foster family shortly after, and they've had nothing but the best things to say about her. She is such a sweet, loving girl who is crate-trained, house-trained and LOVES to take a good snooze. Charlene also enjoys showing off her toys to anyone around her proudly. Toys make her so happy every time she sees one; her whole back end wiggles! Charlene prefers to be the center of your world and would like to be the only fur child so she can always stay in the spotlight. This girl will surely win over your heart!What's Next?

My name is Aurora and I'm a happy girl who is smart, energetic and very eager to please! I'm house trained, and working on feeling comfortable in the crate. I know sit, down and "paw" and love to show off my skills. Cuddling on the sofa is one of my favorite activities, and I like meeting new people, although slow introductions work best. I also loves walks, playing fetch and getting treats. I'd do best in a home where I can get lots of exercise and attention, but no feline companions.Interested in adopting me?

Story
Have you ever felt like you have too much personal space? While watching TV, have you thought - this would be better with a 50-pound lapdog? Are 100 kisses just enough to get you through your day? Introducing Dottie, an inspiring 4-year-old pitbull who embodies the true spirit of rescue, resilience, and hope. Saved from death row in North Carolina, Dottie has the scars of a tough start in life but managed to keep her heart open and simply bursts with love for everyone she meets. She is ready to find a forever home that can provide the serenity and security that she has long deserved. Dottie's ideal match will be a compassionate and calm home, with a new family that has the time and patience to shower her with the unconditional love needed to help her feel safe. She would be happiest if someone was home most of the time, but she has become acclimated to spending up to 8 hours alone during the workday. No crates for this girl as it triggers some anxiety, so we would want to discuss the potential adopter's options for keeping Dottie safely contained as she transitions in her new home. Also no cats (she loves them TOO much!). Dottie has only had positive interactions with dogs outside of the home, so we think having a canine brother or sister would be very helpful for her in gaining confidence and having company when her humans aren't around. If you are interested, please submit your application. Please do NOT submit a Petfinder or Adoptapet inquiry nor send us an email. Thank you!

These pups are in Westminster, Maryland too!
