1. Diesel
Adult (3 years 5 months) · Male · Boxer (short coat)


Meet Diesel!
This handsome 4-year-old, 65-pound Boxer is ready for a fresh start!
After not receiving the care he needed and frequently wandering out of his yard, a kind neighbor helped convince his owner to surrender him to rescue.
Diesel is now being treated for ear infections, a UTI, and a skin infection. He's on the mend, but still sensitive about his ears and mouth after being uncomfortable for so long.
Despite everything, Diesel is a friendly boy who loves people and gets along with other dogs.
He'll be available for adoption starting November 7th and is ready to find a family who will give him the love and care he deserves!

2. Maximus
Young (1 year 7 months) · Male · Boxer (short coat)




79lbs OF BOXER ENERGY, COMING RIGHT UP!
Meet Maximus! He’s 1.5 years old, full of bouncy Boxer energy, obsessed with squeaky stuffies, and convinced he’s a lap dog. ❤️
The problem? Shelter life is overstimulating, and Max needs more exercise, enrichment, and structure than the shelter can consistently provide. Give this boy a chance to burn off some energy, and even that enthusiastic leash-grabbing can improve!
Max is dog social, people social, neutered, and up to date on vet care. He’s having a hard time in the shelter, and we’d love to see him decompress and do his zoomies in a home.
Read more about Maximus
Max needs a foster or forever home! An experienced Boxer home that understands adolescent energy and can give him the exercise, consistency, and outlets he needs could make all the difference.
MAX is in Maine and needs a FOSTER OR ADOPTER URGENTLY!

3. Bailee
Adult (2 years 11 months) · Female · Boxer (short coat)


BAILEE HERE! REPORTING LIVE FROM MY FREEDOM RIDE!
Okay, friends… I’m not sure where we’re going, but I’m LOVING this freedom ride thing! The wind, the adventure, speeding toward my new life… 10/10.
I’m a 3-year-old brindle Boxer girl, and I’m told I’m a pretty special passenger. I’m sweet, petite, happy, and ready to find my very own family!
A little about me:
I’ve lived with kids and other dogs.
I’ve seen cats, and so far, not too interested.
I’m a picky eater so I'm pretty trim
And my FAVORITE thing in the whole wide world? MY FOSTER MAMA.
Read more about Bailee
I follow that woman EVERYWHERE. She moves, I move. She sits, I’m right there. If she ever figures out how to shower without me supervising, I’ll be shocked.
I guess you could say I’m a little Velcro girl!
I’ll be ready for adoption NEXT WEEK, and I’m hoping my freedom ride is just the beginning of a lifetime of adventures with my forever family.
Could you be my copilot for life?

10. Cincy
Adult (1 year 6 months) · Female · Boxer (short coat)





Meet Colombia, now known as Cosette.
Cosette is about 1–2 years old, healthy and spayed, and she’s slowly gaining weight, confidence, and trust. She absolutely loves other dogs, and her canine friends have been so important in teaching her what it means to simply be a dog.
She’s still timid and unsure of new surroundings, and we don’t have any history with little kids. But she is a total sweetheart who is making progress every day.
For Cosette, a fenced yard is a must right now. She isn’t comfortable walking on a leash or navigating unfamiliar places yet, so having a safe space where she can take things at her own pace will be important.
Read more about Cincy
She has already come SO far. Now she just needs someone willing to give her the time and patience to discover how good life can be.
9 Cincy dogs have found their people. Can we find Cosette hers?
Located in MD. Available throughout the Northeast (NY, NJ, CT, RI, VT, ME, PA, DE, MD, NoVA)

*********
THEY’VE BEEN THROUGH ENOUGH. NOW IT’S THEIR TURN TO LEARN THAT LIFE CAN BE GOOD. ❤️
Please welcome Paraguay, Argentina, Brazil & Columbia.
These four beautiful girls were among the dogs rescued from a condemned property where they lived covered in fleas, feces and urine, with little to no socialization.
Right now, they’re still in the shelter—and they’re struggling. The noise, unfamiliar surroundings and sheer overwhelm have made it difficult for them to understand that people are here to help.
But their story isn’t over. ❤️
This week, they’ll leave the shelter. We’re hoping that with quiet spaces, patience, gentle care and time, we’ll begin to see these scared girls discover their brave.
We can’t wait to meet the dogs hiding underneath all that fear.
Welcome, girls. Your good life is coming. ❤️

He knows sit, down, and paw, loves to swim, and enjoys both people and other dogs. This handsome guy is truly a 10/10!

14. Molly
Adult (2 years 7 months) · Female · Boxer (short coat)




Please welcome Molly to CH Boxer Rescue!
At just 2 years old, Molly has officially decided she knows exactly what she wants out of life—and sharing her castle with other female dogs is NOT on the list.
Molly is looking for a free-of-other-female-dogs kingdom where she can be the one and only canine queen. And honestly? She’s pretty fabulous, so we think she deserves it!
Kids? YES! Molly has lived happily with three children—ages 6, 9 & 12—and her 6-year-old bestie has her wrapped around his little finger.
Bunnies? Must chase.
️ Squirrels? Must chase.
Birds? Must chase.
Leaves? Apparently also suspicious and worthy of pursuit.
Read more about Molly
Molly has a prey drive and loves keeping herself entertained, so she’ll do best with a family who understands that her hobbies include wildlife patrol and neighborhood security. She is strong on the leash.
She’s young, fun, affectionate and ready to be the queen of your castle—with no other 4-leggeds trying to steal her throne. ❤️
Welcome to CHBR, Molly! Your perfect kingdom is out there.

16. Seth
Adult (3 years 2 months) · Male · Boxer (short coat)



Welcome to CH Boxer Rescue, Seth!
This handsome goofball just traded the noise and stress of an overcrowded shelter for the comfort of a foster home. Every kennel matters in a packed shelter, so by welcoming Seth to safety, foster mom Kelly also made room for another dog desperately waiting for their chance. ❤️
Seth is a young, healthy, fully vetted wigglebutt, estimated to be 3–4 years old and weighing in at 72 pounds. He's full of playful energy, loves his toys, and has a blast running around the play yard. He also tested well with other dogs, loves water and was even pretty indifferent to cats—a rare talent for a boxer!
Read more about Seth
Now all that's left is finding this silly, fun-loving guy the family he deserves. Stay tuned as we get to know Seth even better!
Welcome to the good life, buddy. We're so glad you're here. ❤️

Adult (3 years 3 months) · Female · Boxer (short coat)




Meet Bia.
The vet believes Bia is around 2 years old, and as you can see, her transformation has been incredible.
Many of you followed the story of two Boxer moms and their puppies who were dumped in the woods in rural Texas. Bia was one of them. It took several days for our trappers to safely bring her in, and we’re so grateful she’s now safe with us. Rhea has already found her forever, and now it’s Bia’s turn.
Bia is a sweetie with so much love to give. She’s dog friendly, kid friendly, affectionate and has a great appetite, she loves treats! Her foster family describes her as a gentle, loving dog who enjoys being with people and other dogs.

She’s up to date on her vaccinations, receiving excellent care, and is ready to find her family. Link below to apply for Bia.

Adopting a dog in Delaware County
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
