ADOPTION PROCESS - PLEASE READ! Step 1: Complete our on-line adoption application. Incomplete applications will be discarded. You must answer all questions, use as much detail as you need. You also must include your physical home address, NOT a P.O. Box. Please note: Do not contact us with questions about a particular boxer featured on our site without FIRST filling out the adoption application. Our volunteers are under time constraints due to full time jobs, families, etc., and struggle to answer the number of e-mails we receive each day. We would appreciate your understanding. Step 2: You will be contacted by a CKBR representative via e-mail to discuss your application. You can expect to answer more questions regarding your application. At this time our available dogs will be discussed to determine which dog may be a match for your family. Please note: We do not operate on a first come first serve basis. Our dogs are placed into the most suitable home according to their temperament and needs. It is not abnormal for multiple families to be interested in the same dog. Step 3: After the initial contact mentioned above and if you are approved to move forward with an adoption you will be put in contact with the home visit coordinator. At that time a volunteer will come to your home to meet with your ENTIRE family.(including any current dogs) Please note: Once you are approved, you must be willing to travel to the home of the foster family, you also must schedule a time when your entire family can be present to meet and interact with the dog.
