🥊✨ Float like a butterfly, nap like a champ ✨🥊⁣
Say hello to Canelo—aka Mellow Canelo—and yes, he lives up to the name.⁣
⁣
At 4 years young, this handsome guy has mastered the important things in life:⁣
✔️ Crate & leash trained⁣
✔️ Dog-friendly (BFFs with foster sis Tulip)⁣
✔️ Calm, cool, and collected⁣
⁣
Canelo is the kind of Boxer who’s happy to toss a toy… and then promptly settle in for a well-earned rest. He’s eager to please, soaking up good manners in his foster home, and proving daily that he’s the trusted, loyal companion type.⁣
⁣
His dream setup?⁣
A dog buddy to pal around with 🐾⁣
A family who includes him in their adventures 🚗⁣
And a couch spot he can call his own 🛋️⁣
⁣
If you’re looking for a Boxer who brings the vibes and the chill… Mellow Canelo might be your guy.⁣

Okay… let’s talk about Mia. 💛⁣
⁣
Just before Christmas, she was left at a shelter. One day she had a family. The next day, she didn’t. If you’ve ever loved a dog, you know how deep that loss cuts.⁣
⁣
The good news: Mia is out. She’s safe. She’s not alone anymore.⁣
⁣
She went straight to the vet, where Dr. Ash Vet Center in Anaheim stayed late to examine her. That’s when the full weight of what she’s endured became clear, she’s in really bad shape. ⁣
⁣
Mia has an upper respiratory infection.⁣
* Her body is covered in fleas and ticks⁣
* She has two completely torn ACLs, making every step painful⁣
* Her mouth is full of tumors ⁣
* And her ears...Mia’s ears were badly cropped years ago. Mesh was left inside them — now packed with bacteria and an infection is so severe that she may ultimately lose both ears just to end the pain.⁣
⁣
And yet...⁣
Mia is gentle, sweet, and still trusts. ⁣
⁣
Right now her future depends on things like love, medications and surgeries, rehab and time. ⁣
⁣
Her journey to healing will be long—and that’s where you can help. Every donation, no matter the size, goes directly to Mia’s medical care and comfort. With your support, we can give her the future she’s been waiting for. ❤️⁣
⁣
Please consider donating today and be part of Mia’s second chance.⁣

⁣
✨ “Just popping in to remind you that KJ is still something special.” ✨⁣
⁣
She’s been part of our rescue family for a minute now, and honestly? We’re a little miffed this 10-year-old Boxer queen hasn’t been scooped up yet.⁣
⁣
KJ is sweet, soulful, and fully in her golden years glow. No guessing games. No growing pains. Just a steady, loving presence who knows how to do life well.⁣
⁣
Why senior dogs like KJ are elite-tier companions:⁣
⁣
🐾 Already knows the routine (and respects it)⁣
🐾 Calm, easygoing, and emotionally mature⁣
🐾 House-trained and low-maintenance in the best way⁣
🐾 Grateful for love in a way that hits different⁣
🐾 Perfect for cozy nights, quiet mornings, and real connection⁣
⁣
KJ isn’t trying to keep up with trends.⁣
She’s here for depth. Loyalty. Couch-side companionship.⁣
⁣
If you’ve been waiting for a sign to adopt a senior…⁣
✨ Hi. it’s KJ. ✨⁣

✨Happy New Year from the land of snorts, wiggles, and second chances.✨⁣
⁣
New Year’s Day around here looks like this:⁣
wintery walks, extra cuddles, sleepy Boxers, and big hopes for the year ahead.⁣

Thank you for being the kind of people who show up—for the messy, the joyful, and the dogs who just need someone to say yes. Because of you, lives change. Literally.⁣
⁣
We’re so glad you’re here as we kick off another year of rescue, love, and very smushy faces. 🐾💛

Ending the year like… 🐾🥂

If your Boxer had a New Year’s resolution, what would it be?
• Sit on you, not next to you
• Pretend they’ve never been fed
• Act personally offended by baths

Drop your Boxer’s resolution in the comments ⬇️
Bonus points if they’re snoring, stealing your spot, or currently side-eyeing you.

Cheers to another year of muddy paws, dramatic sighs, and dogs who make our lives way more fun. 🖤🐾

We’re often asked how we support our rescue Boxers when something feels off — itchy skin, upset tummies, inflammation, or behaviors that don’t quite make sense.⁣
⁣
One of the tools we use at Northwest Boxer Rescue is the 5Strands Test. Many of our dogs come to us with unknown backgrounds, so having insight into possible food and environmental intolerances helps us make more intentional choices around diet and care.⁣
⁣
It’s not about perfection or quick fixes.⁣
It’s about listening to the dog in front of us and supporting healing from the inside out.⁣
⁣
If you’re curious about the tools we trust and use in rescue, you’ll find the 5Strands Test in our Amazon storefront.⁣

Hi, I’m Pearl. I’m soft like velvet, sweet like sugar, and just a little bit spicy. 💁‍♀️
I may be deaf, but don’t get it twisted — I’m smart, motivated, and already fluent in hand signs (especially the one that means treats, please).

I love toys, fetch, dogs, and basically any activity that lets me show off my playful side… and when I’m done? I’m all about the cuddles. On the couch. On you. Wherever I fit. 🐾

I’m looking for an active home with another dog to show me the ropes, humans who like including their dog in real life (yes, I love car rides), and people excited to keep my training going.

If you want a loyal, loving, playful bestie with a big personality and an even bigger heart — congrats, you found me. 💖

⁣
Sometimes forever starts with just for now. 🤍🐾⁣
⁣
This is what foster-to-adopt can look like.⁣
A safe place.⁣
A little time.⁣
And a bond that grows before you even realize it.⁣
⁣
Fostering gives Boxers a soft landing while they wait for their next chapter—and sometimes, between the walks, the cuddles, and the quiet moments, it becomes forever.⁣
⁣
We are in need of fosters now, especially in:⁣
Washington: Tacoma & Spokane⁣
Oregon: Eugene & Southern Oregon⁣
⁣
We provide the support, supplies, and guidance—you provide the love. 🤍⁣
⁣
If your heart (and couch) has room, we’d love to hear from you.⁣

Say hello to Cruz—the glow-up story your heart didn’t know it needed. 😎🐾⁣⁣
⁣⁣
This handsome guy came to us as a last-minute euthanasia rescue… and now? Safe, spoiled, and fully ready to take on his forever home era. 💪💙⁣⁣
⁣⁣
✨ 11 months⁣⁣
✨ 65 lbs of squishy, snuggly goodness⁣⁣
✨ 100% American Bulldog (Embark confirmed)⁣⁣
✨ Kid & dog friendly⁣⁣
✨ Walks like a dream on leash⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Cruz is big-boy sweet. He’s wildly food-motivated (treats = instant besties), obsessed with people, and truly loves every dog he meets. His over-the-top puppy antics are behind him, but don’t worry—he’s still got plenty of playful, goofy energy left to keep life fun.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
His dream setup?⁣⁣
✔️ Another playful dog to wrestle and lounge with⁣⁣
✔️ A Bulldog-savvy family⁣⁣
✔️ A Southern California home (he gets a little carsick, but we’re rooting for him to outgrow it)⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Basically? He’s handsome, well-mannered, playful and cuddly. A rare combo.⁣⁣
If you’re feeling that little tug at your heart… that’s your sign. ⁣⁣
