BOXER SPOTLIGHT: RUFUS IVRufus IV is an owner surrender looking for a new home.Hi! My name is Rufus IV! I am a handsome 1.5 year old white boxer boy that is an owner surrender due to being too high energy for the other dogs in the home. I am described as friendly, active, playful, and affectionate! I currently live with two small dogs and don't bother them much but I will take things from them if I want to and need to be fed alone because I am stingy with my food. It is uncertain if I have ever lived with a cat and if I am feline friendly. There are no kids in my home but my owner's 10 year old grandson visits every weekend and I am good with him! I am crate trained but will need assistance learning house training manners. At night I sleep on the human's bed and if they must be away, I am fine in my crate. If I am in my crate while the human is home, I will howl for about 30 minutes because I want to be where the people are! If food is left out or the trash is where I can get to it, I will help myself so food should be stored off the counter and trash cans in a closed off area. When outside I do not dig or attempt to jump kiddie gates/fences, but I am strong and have pushed a gate open. Some of my favorite things are riding in the car, chewing toys, getting a lot of affection, and being with the humans! If you think I would make a great addition to your family, contact the rescue because I am waiting to meet you!

Memorial - Bandit "B" SantilloI am writing to share the heartbreaking news that Bandit "B" Santillo passed away on June 17, 2026, due to complications during a scheduled surgery.We adopted Bandit from ABR on February 3, 2016, shortly after losing our first boxer, Jax. Over the last 11 years, Bandit became my best friend and my constant shadow. He was a goofy, sweet, and loving pup who helped me through an incredibly difficult period involving my own health challenges and the loss of Jax.I will deeply miss our daily routines, especially our evening ritual where he would patiently wait for his special treat plate while I prepared dinner. He was such a good boy and truly saved me in ways I can't fully describe. While his loss is devastating, I feel blessed for the time we had together and will cherish our memories forever. Sleep well my sweet boy.Vince Santillo ... See MoreSee Less
