Meet Virgie

Hi! My name is Virgie! I am a beautiful 8 year old brindle pocket boxer with big beautiful eyes! Not much is known about my history except that I was a stray in Houston, but have now become a part of the rescue and ready to find my forever home! I am friendly, outgoing, loves all people, loves all dogs, crate trained, house trained, leash trained, likes to play, and likes to go for walks! I sleep quietly in my crate at night. I have met dogs of all sizes and breeds and get along great with them! There is a 4 year old kid in my foster home and I am great with him too! There is no cat in my foster home so it is uncertain if I am feline friendly. My foster mom says I am “amazing” and “the best of both worlds”. Although I am playful and energetic I will relax and chill on my dog bed. As an added bonus, there are chickens at my foster home and although I haven’t had a direct introduction to them, I have seen them through their coop and don’t appear to have a prey drive because I don’t react to them. If you are looking for a well mannered, sweet girl, look no further! Contact the rescue today and give them my name because I am waiting to meet you!If you're interested in fostering a dog, please fill out the Foster Application http://austinboxerrescue.com/rehoming/adoption/foster/  If you're interested in adopting a dog, please fill out the Adoption Application http://austinboxerrescue.com/adoption-application/Our volunteers will work with you to find the best dog for your home.

Adoption Process
The Process to adopt a dog through Austin Boxer Rescue is as follows: Fill out an Online Adoption Application below. Your application will be reviewed and sent to a volunteer in your area. The volunteer will contact you to schedule a home visit within one week. Normally, a volunteer would come to your house for a home visit, but until further notice, visits are being done virtually. After your home visit is complete and you are approved you can begin meeting dogs. The Adoption Coordinator will assist you in this process. Please note: The application process begins immediately once an application is submitted and approvals tend to occur quickly. Please do not submit an application unless you are ready to take home a dog. ABR does not have the space or capability to hold dogs, therefore, dogs are adopted out on a first-come-first-serve basis. If you are not able to proceed with a home visit when contacted by an ABR volunteer then your application will be filed away. We will ask you to resubmit your application if you wish to adopt later date. Every dog adopted will have the following: Current on vaccinations and dewormed Spayed or neutered Will be micro chipped Will be treated for heartworms and/or on heartworm prevention Any additional medical problems will be treated and paid for by the rescue.
