Important information about adopting an owner surrender boxer
FBR almost always has a lack of foster home space, and therefore regretfully cannot serve every single Boxer dog in Florida who is displaced. We list these dogs as a way for the public to be notified of additional Boxer dogs in need, but FBR does not get involved with behavior evaluations, health checks, vaccinations, etc. You, as the adopter, must understand from the family and the dog's records, what health or behavioral issues may exist. Florida Boxer Rescue, Inc. does not charge a fee to the family to list the dog here or to the adopter who "adopts" the dog. We do not advocate offering pets for free, but it is ultimately up to each individual family whether they will charge a fee to the new person acquiring the dog (it's best for the dog if he comes with a fee because it helps to weed out people who acquire unwanted pets for use in dog fighting rings or who sell to animal testing facilities, etc... ). Though these Boxers remain with their families and do not enter our rescue program, we still care very much about the dog's well being and fate. That is why we allow descriptions to be posted, in hopes that we can help a Boxer find a better home than if the family were to just give the dog away or take him to a shelter. You must fill out the application form if you are interested in an owner surrendered dog. Please indicate which dog you are interested in by providing his corresponding OS#. |
