Welcome to Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue

Guss
You may be gone but you will always be remembered. We were privileged to love you for just over a year. Always silently watching us, we knew you were happy just being able to be around. We know Reese was at the Rainbow Bridge to greet you, and you are together once again cuddling as you sleep.

Stillborn puppy to Vanilla Cupcake
"Sometimes the smallest things take up the most space in your heart." Pooh Bear You were born silent, perfect and beautiful. You never had the chance to snuggle your siblings, nurse from your momma, feel life run through your body and participate in the joy of being someone's special pet. But we miss you just the same as if you had been born with a beating heart. You have left a huge hole in our rescue hearts. We will never forget you, sweet little puppy girl.

Daisy
Daisy had a hard life from what I understood. She had heart issues when we adopted her from RCBR in the Summer of 2020. When I saw her picture, I fell in love with her. I told my husband I could not, in good conscience, leave her with RCBR as not many people would step up to the plate and pay for her heart treatments. Medications alone were $100/month plus frequent holter monitors through ISU. She was an absolute joy! She got along with our 4 cats and our Min Pin. Daisy became a daddy's girl, following my husband everywhere and laying beside him on the couch. She still snuggled with me in bed though. Daisy loved chasing rabbits and squirrels in the backyard or just relaxing by dad's chair. She loved playing with her toys, enjoyed her puppy treats and sharing breakfast with me - bananas and grapes. The first sign of her brain tumor was seizures. They were controlled very well on phenobarbital for about 7 months. Another medication was added at that time that stopped the seizures but other symptoms of a brain tumor became noticeable, i.e., constant pacing especially in circles and new incontinence. A big "Thank You" to Dr. Mike at the Sheffield Veterinary clinic for everything he did to keep Daisy's quality of life at the highest level possible while keeping her as pain-free as possible. Also for making her transition to the Rainbow Bridge as peaceful as possible.

Punkin Pie
There have been many rescue pups that have come through our home. Punkin Pie was our first senior gal. When she arrived, there were medical needs that required surgery. She went through them like a champ. Punkin hated to be alone or in a kennel. So, of course, we didn’t put her in one. After her surgery, she ran around like a pup again. Punkin was almost 12 years old; quite an achievement for a Boxer. The middle of November, we decided she would be our forever gal. Not knowing at the time we would only have her for a few more weeks as our very own. We adopted Punkin; we could not let her cross the Bridge as simply a foster dog. She has left a huge hole in our hearts. We miss her daily. We had her buried and placed a headstone for her – ‘Punkin Caton’

Lucy
"My time with Lucy was way too short. She really wanted nothing to do with us the first couple of weeks. We gave her the time and space she needed and let her come to us on her own terms. Once she trusted us, Lucy just wanted to be held and loved. My very last night with Lucy, I played relaxing dog music as she lay on my chest. I think she knew the end was near. Run free baby girl until we meet again. You will always have a special place in my heart."
