Austin Boxer Rescue

ABR - FLAPJACK

Austin Boxer Rescue and Flapjack need your help. Flapjack is desperate for a chance to show he can make the transition too.

He is a big 70 pound boy who might be a bit more than Boxer alone. He is strong and has extra high energy, energy he needs to learn to harness and focus. He was heartworm positive but ABR has already had that treated. He has obviously had no training or discipline in his 2 to 3 years of life and has no manners at all. He is sometimes OK with a submissive female dog, but not males or dominant females. Dogs expect other dogs to have some manners too. He is not by nature aggressive, just big, high energy with little clue how to act.

Flapjack is also sweet, loving and starving for attention and affection. Boxers, like Flapjack, respond well to firm, clear, calm, consistent rules and praise and affection for proper behavior. He can learn the boundaries that will allow him to live comfortably with humans and dogs, but he needs help, a lot of help. ABR will pay for professional training for Flapjack and his foster parent. ABR can provide food, crate, necessary medications and support for his care.

His foster parent must be strong, patient, and committed to completing training with him. He cannot be placed with children as he does not understand his own strength, and no other animals because we do not know how he will react at this time. He loves people and desperately tries to please them, but he just does not know what is acceptable and what is not.

Flapjack is in our Permanent Foster program. Just as with our Silverhearts, there will be no adoption fee for his forever family (whether that turns out to be his foster or not) and ABR will provide a level of support for him and his family. Flapjack has all the promise of being a strong, loyal, loving companion if someone will help him make it through the hard part, like the many Boxers who have come before.

If you can be that person for Flapjack please fill out a foster application here - austinboxerrescue.com/rehoming/adoption/foster/

Please help us give this guy a chance. ... See MoreSee Less

ABR - HUMPHREY

I can’t speak for anyone else, but my heart just melts when I see this guy and hear his story. Humphrey is about 8 years old, around 50 pounds (on the small side for a male), with a fawn coat and white on his chest and all 4 feet, a black mask, docked tail and floppy ears, and he’s blind. Probably been blind for a while as he masters his new environments within 2 to 3 days, with patient help of course. He has a permanent smile and a permanent wink. Humphrey has about the best attitude you can imagine.

Humphrey is heartworm negative and healthy and always on the up side. His butt wiggles so hard when his foster mom gets home you just don’t know where he’ll wind up. He loves his Boxer female host, and probably ought to be with a Boxer who looks out for him, lets him follow them. Humphrey is house trained and he loves his toys that keep him entertained during the day while his foster mom works. Neither he nor his foster sister are kenneled and neither of them are destructive.

Humphrey is dog friendly, but like deaf Boxers, the introductions need to be closely supervised until the other dogs understand the difference; Humphrey’s not being rude, he just needs extra sniffs and reassurance. It’s best for Humphrey that he not live with little kids as they may not understand one another, but older kids with patience and empathy would be OK. We don’t know how he relates to cats. He sticks to his foster mom when she’s home and he could learn to stick with you too. You will never forget Humphrey once you meet him.

If you can provide a safe home for Humphrey please fill out an adoption application here - austinboxerrescue.com/adoption-application/ ... See MoreSee Less
