My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Fostered in Nebraska

Myk loves his people which include small children. He loves to play on the rough side with the resident dog which includes some play biting on legs so he would do best with another dog that can handle the play. He would also do great as a solo dog. Myk sits nicely and is very food motivated to learn new things. He is house broken and loves his kennel. Myk does like hearing himself talk so if he outside alone he does bark. Myk is also protective of his home. Any new visitor need a slow intro but he warms up quickly. Myk loves walks and is an active dog for his age. Zoomies are a regular part of his day. Myk also loves a good pile of clean laundry, he needs to make it smell like him again.

More about this rescue

Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue is a non-profit, 100% volunteer run rescue organization serving the needs of senior boxers and providing special care for medical/behavioral cases.

Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue is a 501(c)3 charity, registered with the Internal Revenue Service. Our EIN is 83-4480032. All donations are tax-free in accordance with IRS regulations.

MISSION STATEMENT

Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue (RCBR) is a non-profit, all volunteer, foster-based organization dedicated to providing loving homes for Boxer dogs – especially seniors, medically challenged, and those needing to start over again in an unfamiliar world.

We offer quality care for whatever time is left; it is not about the quantity of days, but rather the amount of love that can be shared during those days.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue (RCBR) believe all dogs deserve loving, responsible, committed homes. These homes may be adoptive homes, foster homes, or comfort care/hospice homes depending on the needs of the dog.

We take considerable care in finding good matches between human and dog. We will educate the families about the responsibilities and costs of bringing a rescued dog into their home and lives.

Boxers in our care are spayed or neutered, receive appropriate veterinary care, vaccinations, and treatment for pre-existing conditions. Dogs in the greatest need take priority to the extent our finances allow. In some cases, the need may be for comfort care with minimal medical interference.

We are determined to keep administrative expenses in check so that virtually every dollar taken in goes directly to the care of the dogs. Our organization remains committed to the welfare of the dog beyond the adoption process. Education and support will be offered to all foster, adoptive, and comfort care homes. If possible, a special scholarship program for Boxer dogs currently in loving and caring families will be utilized so the family is not forced to surrender their four-legged family member to a rescue.

RCBR recognizes that adoption alone is not the solution for overpopulation of pets. The rescue plans to work with other shelters, rescues, vet clinics, and state agencies regarding spay and neuter programs to prevent unwanted pregnancies.
