Bosco's Story

My name is Bosco and I am a 70-pound, 4-year-old, white Boxer. I am recently neutered, current on my shots, and I’m being fostered in Everett, WA. As you can see, I am stunningly handsome - just look at me! My sole purpose in life is to wiggle my little nub tail, invade your personal space on the couch, chase tennis balls in the yard, and have snacks. I am kennel trained but the only time I am in there is when my family is not home. I sometimes bark in the kennel, but my foster mom gives me a frozen treat when she puts me in there. I am house trained and I always go outside to do my business too! When my family is home, I like to follow them around, help clean up the crumbs from dinner and snuggle on the couch with soft blankies. I know how to sit, lay down and shake, and I will proudly show you these if I get a cookie. My ideal owner needs to have experience with my breed and also be a strong leader. I can be stubborn and I need a human who can teach me to be the best pup I can be. I love people – any and all people! The more the merrier! Adults, teenagers, toddlers, I am happy to be around any of them. When it comes to living with furry friends like cats and other dogs, that is not something I am interested in nor can I do. I need to be an only fur-child. But once you meet me and see how fabulous I am, you won’t want another dog! I love car rides! Especially if you are taking me to McDonald's for a cheeseburger or a vanilla ice cream cone. I love those! I'm learning how to walk on a leash, although I do need a little more help with that because I love to go fast and then end up pulling my foster mom along, so we are working on slowing me down. At night, I sleep on the bed with my foster mom or a big cozy dog bed right next to her. I sleep all night long without needing a potty break too! I am a really good pup who has a lot of love to give, and I promise to make your face and your heart smile every day! So, if you are looking for endless affection and a loyal best friend for life, I'm your guy!!! Apply today – www.mustluvboxersrescue.com/adopt.

MustLuvBoxers Rescue's Adoption Policy

Locations we serve: We are currently accepting applications from residents in Washington, Oregon and Northern Idaho (close to the WA border), and some areas of Canada. While we serve the majority of these areas, in some cases we cannot find a volunteer to home check certain areas of these states. For that reason, your application may be denied. Same Sex Dogs in a Household: Our rescue does not adopt dogs out to households that already have a dog of the same sex. This is due to increased aggression and dominance issues among same sex dogs. This also applies to dogs who are frequent visitors in your home. In some cases, we allow dogs with a 9+ year age difference to be placed in the same home. Application Types: Below you will be asked to select what type of application you would like to submit. Adoption Application: you are interested in adopting a rescue dog who is in foster care. Foster-to-Adopt Application: you are interested in fostering a dog for a three week period with the intention to adopt. If you decide the dog is not a good fit, you will continue fostering until the dog is adopted out through the standard adoption process. This process requires you to be on Facebook to interact with our support group after your application is processed. Foster Application: you are interested in providing a safe, structured and loving home for a rescue dog until they find their forever home through the adoption process. All supplies and medical expenses will be covered. This process requires you to be on Facebook to interact with our support group after your application is processed. What to Expect When Fostering or Fostering-to-Adopt: There is no perfect dog when fostering. Each dog that comes into foster care has their own unique personalities, many that just need love and care to work through undesirable behaviors. Most of these dogs have never had a safe, secure or loving home like you will be providing them. We will never ask a foster to take a human-aggressive or a dog with extreme behavioral issues. Those dogs go to our seasoned fosters or trainers. Every dog that comes into MLBR will have different quirks or issues; whether it be needing a single dog home, medical, crate and potty training, working through their fears, crate rotation, etc. Crate training a dog is not a punishment. Utilizing a crate in the home creates a safe space for the dog to decompress. Each dog will have different comfort levels, and not all are going to be social, which is okay; it doesn’t mean they’re not adoptable.
