IMPORTANT INFORMATION, please read:
Any dog coming into HCBW is firstly matched against homes on our waiting list. If there is no match, we advertise here and on our Facebook page: HCBW - Boxers Looking for Homes. ALL applicants will require a successful home-check to be completed before adoption is considered. Please speak to the committee member listed if you are interested in one of the dogs below.
ISLA
3 years old (nearly) | Female |Bobtail Boxer
|
Isla is a beautiful girl looking for a special home.
Isla needs an experienced home with: 🐾No children (as we know nothing of her past) 🐾Adults at home most of the time 🐾No cats 🐾She might be OK with a doggie companion Location: Isla is currently in Hertfordshire. |
We know nothing about her past as she was found wandering as a stray, severely unwell and handed in to the local vet by the dog warden. Isla had severe diarrhoea when she came to us and we have been supporting the veterinary costs whilst this problem has been addressed. No one particular cause has been established for her condition and it is now vastly improved. We are optimistic that dietary changes are working for her. If Isla needs any treatment in the future for this problem HCBW will meet the costs.
She has put on weight and is proving to be a delight and sometimes a pickle in her foster home, a typical young boxer. What information we do have about Isla, as supplied by her foster family, where she has been for 10 weeks, is that:
For more information or if you are interested in giving Isla a home please call Angela on 07927 406989 or email [email protected]. |
BUDDY
16 months old | Male | Bobtail Boxer
Buddy needs an experienced home with:
🐾No children 🐾No other dogs. 🐾No cats |
Buddy is a 16 month old red and white bobtail boxer.
He has come into rescue because, although his family loved him, circumstances mean they were not able to give him the time, attention and training he needs. He can be nervous when meeting new people, especially men, and he will usually bark on first meeting, but is won over quite quickly with treats. He also displays his nervousness by barking at other dogs, especially if they bark at him first. He is a strong boy, his lead walking skills will need some work, and he will need to be taught about coming back when called. Buddy needs an experienced home that will work with him to make him feel secure. You will need to be prepared to work at his training to improve his walking and social skills, and to build up his confidence. If you would like to know more about Buddy or feel you could offer him a home, please contact Julie Semmence on 01508 218471 or email [email protected] Currently Buddy is in kennels near Kettering, North Northants where you would need to go to meet him. Buddy will need to be neutered once he's settled in his new home and HCBW will fund this. Adoption donation £400 |
BOYO
2 years old | Male | Boxer | Neutered
We are looking for a foster home for Boyo
Boyo needs a calm home with: 🐾No children 🐾Calm adults in a quiet home where someone is around most of the time 🐾No other dogs; he would be best suited to being an only dog. |
Boyo is a beautiful red and white 2 years old Boxer, who is neutered and fully vaccinated.
He is good with other dogs when out, but he will need a pet free home as he's not used to living with another dog. He will pull on the lead, but when there's no distractions he can walk nicely. He does suffer with separation anxiety so will need someone who will give him time to settle and build up the time being left. Boyo will need time to decompress and settle into a new home, so a patient and calm household would be best. If you are interested in adopting Boyo, or you can provide a foster home to allow him to decompress, please call Julie 01508 218471 or email [email protected]. Boyo is currently in kennels in West Northamptonshire Adoption donation £400 |
DEXTER
3 years 5 months | Male Boxer | Fawn with Black Mask
|
Dexter is a Loyal, Loving Boxer Seeking a Calm, Understanding Home. Dexter is a truly special boy. An affectionate, intelligent Boxer who forms deep bonds with his people and thrives on connection. He is the kind of dog who will be by your side, quietly keeping you company, always wanting to be close to those he trusts. He has so much love to give and will make an incredibly devoted companion in the right home.
What Dexter Needs: Dexter is currently living with another dog, and while both dogs are lovely, the dynamic between them creates ongoing tension and overstimulation. We have seen that Dexter is much more settled and relaxed when he has space away from this. For this reason, Dexter is looking for:
|
Dexter is a wonderful dog who just needs the right environment to truly shine. In the right home, we believe he will blossom into an incredibly rewarding and loving companion.
Dexter has a cleft lip and palate but does not need surgery and it does not cause any issues at all. CONDITIONS: Dexter will need to be neutered once in his new home. HCBW will cover the cost of this directly with your vet.
CONTACT: If you feel you could offer Dexter the home he needs, please get in touch with Donna Russell by email; [email protected]
AREA: Essex | ADOPTION DONATION: £300

WINSTON
5-6 years old | Neutered | Male | Boxer cross
|
Winston is a lovely boxer cross who was originally handed to HCBW 2 years ago as a stray. He’s neutered and we suspect that he is now probably about 5 or 6 years old.
|
He is generally a very good natured boy who travels well and can be left on his own for a couple of hours once he is settled into his new home.
He is very quick to learn - especially when treats are available! He’s a strong boy but he has learnt to walk well on a lead and his recall is good, although once he knows you he’s very loyal and never really goes very far from you anyway. At home he is very chilled and loving, but he does like to have the odd half hour throwing toys around and playing, and he loves to do Zoomies round the garden! He needs a pet free home where someone is prepared to continue with his training – definitely NO cats because he will chase them. We are preferably looking for an adult only home, or one with dog-savvy older children/teenagers.
A satisfactory home-check will need to be done (unless we have done one recently) and you will need to be able to travel to meet him. Winston is currently in the West Midlands. Adoption donation: £150 |
