We will take in boxers of all ages and conditions, including older, injured and sick dogs, even those requiring emergency vet care. We will also try to rehabilitate those with serious behaviour problems.
At this time we can only help with [purebred] boxers, although we may be able to post pictures of boxer mixes on our Web site.
If you know of a boxer in need in Georgia, please send the following information: photo in JPEG (.jpg) format; detailed description of the animal; contact information for yourself or shelter with the dog; animal I.D. number at shelter (if any); date animal needs to be adopted by (if at a shelter).
Also, if you'd like to become a foster home, or if you can help with transporting animals in Georgia, please contact our foster coordinator, Rebecca Morris:

Purebreds are our priority but given foster space we will take in mixes that demonstrate many of the Chessie characteristics.
We as most rescues are very careful of dogs with bite histories so the more
information we have on an owner turn in the better. Bite circumstances and
severity are crucial to our decision making!

AGSDR does not take in any aggressive dogs or any dog that has growled at or bitten any person. If your dog is aggressive with other dogs we will have a hard time fostering them, as all of our foster home volunteers have dogs of their own.

Right now we can not take mixes because we do not have fosters for them.
When we have room we will take a pure lab but we take Goldens first.
We do not take aggressive
dogs. We will take sick goldens and labs, HWP, broke legs, hip etc. We
neuter/spay, give all shots, fecal etc.
