Ok.. so here is another update on our search for a puppy. I went to petfinder.com and saw a boxer mix- it was from Pet Rescue in Mt. Vernon, NY. Anyway, we had to fill out an application and they apparently called my references and said that we were approved for adoption. They are an all volunteer rescue center upstate and the volunteers actually go to high kiill shelter in the south and rescue puppies, dogs, cats.. you name it they rescue it.

So she said that the boxer mix we were interested in was adopted by someone that needed him. But she has a litter of pups, also boxer mixes, she thinks they are boxer\lab mixes (which should be adorable) that are 2 weeks old and will be ready to go out as early as the end of January. I am waiting patiently for her to send me pictures and if we like the look of the litter, we can set up a private meeting and pick our puppy.. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

We are sooo excited.... I just hope this works out... Thank you all so much for the help!! I will keep everyone posted as to the status of our search for a pup-- I will try to get pictures on here as soon as they send'em to me!!!!



YAY Im so exctied for you!!!!! Chat Icon Boxer/Lab will be adorable but probably BIG I LOVE big dogs Chat Icon

Ok ladies... I just got emailed some pictures from Ny-Petrescue.. they are not fantastic, but they are cute.. they don't look like labs... I really think they are boxer, but I am not sure about the whole lab mix thing.. Let me know what you all think...

We prefer a grl, so she sent me a picture of the girl of the litter... Oh man is she cute with her little white paws and blue eyes...

I hope I do this right.. never posted pictures before!!!

ADORABLE!

Rudy is a Retriever/Chow mix. When he was a baby I didn't see Chow at all. NOW I do. As she gets older you might see some Lab in her Chat Icon

Re: looking for a puppy for our family...

I agree with your husband - the father could have been boxer cuz the puppies have a boxer look. I will say that with her hair and looking at the puppies, you certainly won't have to worry about shedding...they are very shorthaired pups.

She looks so sweet, what is happening to her after her babies are adopted out?

You know, I am not sure what they are going to do with her, but I will find out.. I am sure that they will probably adopt her out as well!
