Adoption
Silver Hearts are dogs ages 10 years and older. There is no adoption fee. These wonderful animals just want a comfortable home to spend their remaining years.
Austin Boxer Rescue now serves ALL of Texas which includes Austin, San Antonio, Temple, Houston, Dallas / Ft Worth and the surrounding areas. To begin the adoption process please click here. Our Silver Hearts program matches older boxers with adopters who will cherish them for their remaining years. No adoption fee is required for our Silver Heart dogs.
