My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Age: 15 years

Sex: Female

Weight:54 Lb

Ears/Tail: Natural/Natural
HW Test: Negative
Available: Sept

A foster was driving home from work Monday and saw a dog on the side of the road. She pulled over, worried it got hit by a car. Luckily she wasn't. She's not one to leave a dog on the side of any road, so she bundled her up and took her home with her.

She was skinny enough you could easily see her ribs, was HORRIBLY covered with fleas and had mange. She seems to have some arthritis, has little left of her teeth, and is covered in skin tags. She went back to where she found her and started knocking on doors. Until she found the owners.

They relinquished her into the rescue's care..Now that Missy is free or fleas, has a soft bed to sleep in, meds to help with her joint pains she is a happy old gal. She gets so excited to go out and play fetch with the resident dogs that she hops around and makes sure her family knows she wants to play too. After a life of living on her own terms, she struggles with house training. She is crate trained tho and she will advise you when she has to go out but if you are not quick enough, she will do her business where she can get to. She gets along great with the 2 resident dog and loves her humans. She would love to live a retired life with someone as a constant companion.

Adoption fee is $315. To apply to adopt Missy, complete the application on our website at www.obbrescue.org

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Please note, each step is contingent on the successful completion of the one before it.

1. Read our Adoption Policies then complete an Adoption Application
The adoption application may seem long, but please understand each question is designed to assist in placing our beloved rescues in their forever home and to determine if the applicant is the best match for a particular dog. Our only reward is to ensure each dog is placed in their forever home.
2. Reference & Vet Checks
After the initial review of the adoption Contract, an OBBR volunteer will call the references on your application.
3. Telephone Interview
A telephone interview will be conducted, in order to review points on the application, answer any questions or discuss a particular dog. If the interview goes well a home visit is then scheduled.
4. Home Visit
An OBBR volunteer will conduct a home visit in order to meet the family members, and other pets and to ensure that the home environment is suited for a boxer.
5. Approved for Adoption
After the home visit is conducted, and of course if all goes well, you will be approved for adoption. At this point we will do our best to match a boxer with your home and in the ideal case coordinate the adoption of the dog you selected on your application. If we do not have the right dog for you and you do find a dog with another rescue group, we will be happy to share our approval information.

NOTE: It is important not to fall in love with a picture online before your application has been approved. Often times, a dog can be adopted while your application is being processed, and we don’t want anyone to be disappointed. Please be patient and we’ll help you find the perfect addition to your family once you’ve been approved.

Go meet their pets

We work almost exclusively with meet and greet appointment between the foster home and approved applicants.

We are working on a schedule with 3 Dog Bakery in Grayson Georgia. We will post the schedule once we have it confirmed.
