Flash's Story

FLASH UPDATE! 115 POUNDS OF LOVE LOOKING FOR HIS FOREVER HOME! <br/><br/>Meet Flash! This 115-pound hunk of Boxer love is looking for a family to call his own, and trust me, he has SO much love to give! <br/><br/>Flash may be a big boy, but underneath all those pounds is a big old’ softie who just wants to be loved. He’s dreaming of a family of his own, complete with some fur siblings to hang out with! <br/><br/>A few things to know about this handsome guy:<br/>We’re working on his skin issues! Flash has some allergies and skin irritation, but with the help of antibiotics and an allergy shot, we’re working on getting everything under control. <br/><br/>Stairs aren't really his thing. Flash doesn't do stairs right now, but with some patience, encouragement, and a few tasty treats, he might be willing to tackle a flight. We believe in positive reinforcement and letting him go at his own pace!<br/>He's okay sleeping on his own. This big guy doesn't need to be glued to your side 24/7, even though he certainly wouldn't mind having his own people to love!<br/>He's a BIG baby when it comes to scary things! The vacuum? TERRIFYING. Strange noises? Absolutely not. His own shadow? Apparently, also suspicious. <br/>Seriously, though, it's a good reminder that even the biggest dogs can be scared of the silliest things. Flash will need a family willing to give him patience, reassurance, and time to build his confidence.<br/><br/>What Flash really wants: A family who will love him for who he is, help him navigate the scary stuff, and give him the chance to be somebody's beloved dog. A home with furry siblings would be a wonderful bonus!<br/><br/>Flash doesn't need to be perfect. He just needs someone willing to see the amazing dog underneath the nervous moments, the skin issues, and those 115 pounds of adorable Boxer.<br/><br/>He's got the size, the squishy Boxer face, and ALL the love in the world to give. Now he just needs someone to give him a chance. <br/>Could Flash be the missing piece of your family? <br/><br/>Please share his story and help us find this big, lovable goofball the forever home he deserves!

New Jersey Boxer Rescue Inc.'s Adoption Policy
Thank you for considering to adopt a rescued boxer. The adoption process is outlined in the steps below. Please note, each step is contingent on the successful completion of the one before it. 1. Read our Adoption Policies than complete an Adoption Application The adoption application may seem long, but please understand each question is designed to assist in placing our beloved rescues in their forever home and to determine if the applicant is the best match for a particular dog. Our only reward is to ensure each dog is placed in their forever home. 2. Reference & Vet Checks After the initial review of the adoption Contract, a NJBR volunteer will call the references on your application. 3. Telephone Interview A telephone interview will be conducted, in order to review points on the application, answer any questions or discuss a particular dog. If the interview goes well a home visit is then scheduled. 4. Home Visit A NJBR volunteer will conduct a home visit in order to meet the family members, and other pets and to ensure that the home environment is suited for a boxer. Whenever possible a boxer will be brought along for the visit. 5. Approved for Adoption After the home visit is conducted, and of course if all goes well, you will be approved for adoption. At this point we will do our best to match a boxer with your home and in the ideal case coordinate the adoption of the dog you selected on your application. If we do not have the right dog for you and you do find a dog with another rescue group, we will be happy to share our approval information. 6. Email the Dog’s Contact Person If you are interested in a particular dog on the website, be certain to email the contact person listed in the dog’s biography. 7. Adoption At the time of adoption the following documents will be executed: Adoption Contract* – stipulating (in addtion to other contractual requirements, that the dog must be taken to obedience training unless their is a special circumstance (age or health) that prevents the dog from participating in training, Follow-up Schedule Restraint Agreement (stating the dog cannot be let off-lead in a non-fenced area) * In homes with children under the age of 12 the contract also states that the dog and children cannot be left alone un-supervised. 8. Follow Up A follow-up schedule is a part of our adoption package. We request that you keep in touch with us on a regular basis and we are always available to answer questions and provide support if needed. We especially love receiving pictures and updates on how your new family member is settling in.
