BOXER SPOTLIGHT: RYLEIGH IIRyleigh II is an owner surrender looking for a new home.Hi! My name is Ryleigh II! I am a beautiful 8 year old white girl that is an owner surrender after being rescued from an abusive home and the resident dogs in my current home and I are not getting along. I am described as protective and nervous. I can be dog friend selective and not get along with them, so being the only dog in the home may be best for me. I currently live with a 15 year old kid and do well with him. If I see a cat outside I do not bother them, but if it is in the house, I will chase them. I am timid when first meeting someone but will open up after a bit. I am house trained but will need assistance with crate training manners if that is required in my forever home. I have slept outside in my past life but now sleep inside and do fine. If the humans must be away and I am left alone, I react fine. When outside I have good behavior and do not dig. I am fearful of thunder and fireworks but love riding in the car on adventures! If you think I would make a great addition to your family, contact the rescue today and give them my name because I am waiting to meet you!If you're interested in fostering a dog, please fill out the Foster Application austinboxerrescue.com/ways-to-help/foster/ If you're interested in adopting a dog, please fill out the Adoption Application austinboxerrescue.com/adoption-application/ ...

BOXER SPOTLIGHT: BO IIBo II is an owner surrender looking for a new home.Hi! My name is Bo II! I am a handsome 7-8 year old boxer boy that is an owner surrender due to being found and my current caretakers are unable to keep me. I am described as friendly, calm, playful, affectionate, quiet, and obedient! There is a chihuahua and a beagle in my home and I can be intimidating to them when having the zoomies, but I am calm and do not bother them. It is unknown if I have lived with a cat so it is uncertain if I am feline friendly. There are no kids in my home but there is a 30 year old quadapalegic boy and I follow him around and gently stand on my hind legs to greet him and allow him to pet me. I also had exposure to multiple adults when my caretakers had a small gathering and I was kind and quiet with everyone. I am house trained but would need assistance crate training if that's required in my forever home. At night I sleep on a dog bed and it is unknown how I will react if the humans must be away because they currently work from home. When outside I have good behavior and do not currently jump fences/gates. Some of my favorite things are riding in the car, playing with a ball, running zoomies, receiving affection, lounging on the sofa, and taking naps! If you think I would make a great addition to your family, contact the rescue today and give them my name because I am waiting to meet you!
