Adopt a Boxer (short coat)

Boxer (short coat) Dog

Dolly the Dog needs a home

Dolly & Tessa are a bonded pair who found themselves with nowhere to go when their owner passed away. Family members contacted rescue and with a temporary foster offer from one of our Kentucky volunteers we were able to bring them in.


Dolly (brindle) is the older of the two girls. She loves nothing more than to lounge around and be with her people. She is 9.5 years old.


Tessa (white) still has some puppy energy...she is definitely the most active of the duo. She still loves to run and play and is also very loving and sweet. She is 8 years old.



Both of the girls are fully vetted and are good with other dogs and with cats. They have been together since Tessa was a pup and they are truly bonded.


They are both on thyroid medication which is fairly inexpensive. 


FROM THEIR TEMPORARY FOSTER MOM:  They're beautiful inside and out. These girls are the complete package! Clever, sweet, active enough for daily play but mature enough to know the value of down time. Great with other animals and hoomans of any variety, and easy peasy when it comes to maintenance! Seriously folks, I've never had better fosters, these girls are AWESOME!


11/3 UPDATE:  Dolly's best friend passed away early this morning.  We will take the best care of Dolly while she adjusts to life without Tessa.
