We just adopted one. We lost our guy ( Mopar ) about three months ago to a neurological disorder, he was 8 1/2. Our new boy ( Max, as in wedge ) is about 4. Great, Boxer only rescue we found in Phoenix. We were very impressed by their thorough adoption process, even came to the house before we were considered. We brought him home Sunday, it’s like he’s been here since day one. You’ve got a good looking pup! Enjoy that boy!This is Radar. We just adopted him Monday. (After a scary try with another "boxer mix".)
He is a Boxer around 3 years old. Very friendly and nosey.
Lots of energy and needs to learn some manners though.

The lady we were working with had three in mind for us. Two were still in the foster part of their program. He had just got the okay for the adoption process, he had been there just over a month. She said if we didn’t want him, the others would be ready this week. Max won us over with his overall demeanor and sweetness. I think we both got lucky. They never brought a dog to the house, we went there, it was an amazing place. Take care sir.I'm glad you found him.
We feel really lucky. We didn't rule out other breed or mixes, in fact I wanted a medium size terrier. But we have had boxers before and they really suit us.
Adoption seems to be a whole world to itself now. One agency didn't think we were giving our previous dogs enough heartworm meds!(interviewed our vet!)
Then we had a woman bring a dog to our house, which proceeded to try to attack my elderly neighbor lady.
It's a shame that there are so many unwanted dogs, many of them to aggressive for the average pet owner.
Yes, but Strider does not have stripes.They call it "brindle".
Yes, after the first one we decided we would go meet the dog first.The lady we were working with had three in mind for us. Two were still in the foster part of their program.

He looks a lot like our old Barlow.Mine is in the middle a rescued Boxer/Lab mix

Me too! (Though i would love a malinois, i dont know if i could keep up with one!)Not mine.
Maybe I'll get a Malinois after I retire, but I'm partial to GSDs.

Any pics Wild?Malinois have an intensity that next level all the time.... You need to give them a job or they will find a job.. And you might not like what they choose... LOL... Mine was a little crazy... He was a rescue, he'd been attacked by coyotes as a puppy & when I adopted he he'd been sedated... It made him seem pretty mellow... Then the drugs wore off & the worst of his wounds healed... By that point I kinda knew he was gonna need allot of work... He was with me constantly for about eight years... Great dog, just had a few "Quirks" LOL..
Any pics Wild?
Ouch! I can relate, a little. I broke my tablet in a fit of pissed off at a game i was playing, and lost a bunch of good photos and some games that i haf been playing on it for years.I had a bunch but I had a computer crash that wiped out about 9K photos..
