BentleyBentley - April 21 2008

Bentley is in search of his forever home. He was surrendered to BRC as his last family is adding another human to their pack and Bentley doesn't fit in. He is the typical male boxer, protective, active and can jump fences 6 ft high if left unattended.He is neutered and is loving to his family. Unfortunatley for Bentely his last family doesn't have the time to spend with him anymore due to the human children. Bentley is in search of a home that will make him as much as a priority as the other members of his family, human or otherwise. He at this point in his life is not good with other dogs as he was attacked 6 months ago by two dogs off leash, when he was on leash. Boxer Rescue will include two training sessions with our trainer to help with these issues. Bentley has been crated for 11 hrs at a time , he really needs a family that has more time for him, to make him part of their family and not be so segregated. Bentley is only four yrs old! Can you be his family that wiill love him, cherish him? be with him?....Even if you decide to add humans to your pack??? If so pls contact us.

 


 

Colbie - November 7 , 2007

Colbie is a beautiful, almost 8 yr old girl. She is a real cuddler, loving, does not go on furniture, toilet trained, great on a leash, understands basic commands.  She is wonderful with kids of all ages.  She seems fine around cats.  Colbie is up to date with all her vaccinations and medically there are no issues. Colbie is not good with other dogs upon the initial meeting, but will warm up if the introductions are handled properly. Colbie suffers from some separation anxiety and will do best with a family where there is someone home with her.

Bug - May 6 , 2008

 

Meet Bug – “Cute as a Bug in a Rug”. 

Bug was found as a stray in north-eastern British Columbia.  No one ever came looking for her.  Now why no one would be looking for a young, healthy, beautiful female boxer is a mystery.  We can only guess that the answer is that her family was unable to deal with a deaf boxer with severe separation anxiety.  Their ability to deal with her involved dropping her by the side of the road.   She appears very young, under the age of one year and has no other apparent medical conditions.  She was very under weight when she was found but is putting on weight slowly. Bug suffers from severe separation anxiety.  She was on medication and herbal remedies as well as behavioural management.  Bug is now comfortable being left alone in her crate.  It is expected that she will suffer some relapse when she moves to her new home or when changes happen within her household. She lives happily with an adult male boxer and an adult female boxer.  She has met a cat but was far more interested in the cat's toys.  She loves all the people she has met.  She does not startle and seems able to cope when chaos reigns about her.  She loves to play, eats well, is crate trained and walks like a dream on a leash. Bug was in foster care for 1 ½ months putting on weight before she was spayed.  Her spay is now complete and she is ready for a new home.  We are looking for a family ready to make all the adjustments in their life necessary to love this deaf boxer girl.  Obedience training is a must as well as some specialized training for deaf dogs. 

HarleyPenner - March 24 , 2008

Are you looking for a really neat dog to share your life? Look no further! Penner is an 8 month old neutered boxer mix who makes me laugh every day. He's been in foster care for a few months now and is turning into an awesome dog with quite the sense of humour. He's a very clever little boy who's even learned how to open the fridge!

Penner lives with 2 boxers (male and female), a male Cavalier and 3 cats. His playmates include a Doberman, sheltie and a few more Cavaliers! He gets along nicely with everyone, big and small (including the cats).

Penner is housetrained and crate trained with no separation issues. He's good in the house and has very good leash manners. He knows come, sit, down, stand, spin, twist, and give me 5. He's also starting some agility exercises and is really keen to learn. He just learned the A frame and now it's hard to get him off it!

Penner decided before Christmas that if someone strange approaches him (dog or human), he should bark. We've pretty much worked through that issue with the dogs and we're continuing to work with it with people. I'm happy to report that he's making great progress. He knows that he must sit beside me and not bark. If someone wants to meet him, I have the person not speak to him or make eye contact with him and let Penner approach them. They give him a treat. Once he's met the person, they can have him sit, down and give 5 for another treat and he's fine with them from that point. The joys of adolescence!

 


Jesse James - March 24 , 2008

Hello Boxer fans, I will say this loud and proud, research the breed before you even phone, cause I am one beautiful handful.  I came in as a stray dog, UNneutered of course, so I was a bit rambuncious and way too interested in giving everyone a friendly hump.  PARS has since had me neutered, not something I fully appreciate, but my foster mom says I NEEDED IT! I am too jumpy for small kids even though I like them.  I do get along well with all the dogs, I am vocal, which means if you ignore me I tell you, if you're not quick with the food I tell you, or if I think I might get a wrestle out of it I lip off a bit then too.  I steal whatever my foster mom puts down on the ground; and I find it hilarious.  Quite a character she says (sometimes with a smile, sometimes with a frown) I am about 10 months old and a boy in case you didn't figure that out. I have now officially been to college and have learned many new wonderful manners, I still on occassion choose not to use them, but hey I'm cute...
