Welcome to Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue

Archie
It is with great sadness that I had to say goodbye to my sweet Boxer Archie. He had to be euthanized due to a diabetic coma and complications from the disease the day after Thanksgiving. RCBR rescued him two years ago after he was given up to a high kill shelter in Tennessee. I became his foster then quickly became a foster failure and adopted him. Archie was such a sweet gentle boy. He was my constant shadow here at home. He loved living on a farm and having lots of doggie friends. Thanks to RCBR for saving his life and giving me the honor of being his Mom.

Sweet Georgia Brown
Sweet Georgia Brown crossed the Rainbow Bridge November 18, 2022 Sweet Georgia Brown told me she was tired of fighting and it was time for her to go. No longer able to be comfortable while she slept and having no tolerance for the cold she'd had enough. I loved her dearly. Even though she was food aggressive and human food aggressive, she was willing to work with us. She had to be fed separately but we could eventually share a snack with her and the other dogs. Steak, hamburger, cheese, she got to have whatever she wanted. Thank you Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue for allowing me to help her these last few months.

Luna
Luna lived a life of making babies. She was not anyone’s pet and did not even get to live inside a house. But once RCBR stepped in, all of that changed. We were privileged to have Luna live her last days inside a warm home, on a comfy bed, surrounded by nothing but love from all humans and animals. Rest easy, sweet sweet Luna.

Bocephus
Bocephus (a/k/a Bo) was one of the “Divine 9” dogs that came to RCBR in June 2022. He was a beautiful dark brindle with a strong profile and striking pose. Bo spent a couple months in his foster home and was adopted in July 2022. Unfortunately, Bo met with an untimely accident and left this world far too quickly. ‘Til we meet again, Bo.

Canelo
On February 23, 2022, there was a found stray weighing only 45 pounds. Canelo was given a slim chance of survival. We told Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue that if he could get from southern Texas to northern Minnesota, we would foster him. I met him in Duluth on March 27th. We helped him slowly heal; have a huge lump removed from his back; learn there would always be enough to eat; there would always be a soft, warm place to sleep. But most importantly, there would always be love. He officially became a Turner on August 2nd. He was such a funny little old man. He would grumble, fart, scratch his ear and fart, give the best stink eye when we were too noisy, and let you know when it was time to eat. He reminded Bobby of Cleetus from The Nutty Professor. And you could just picture him commenting in that same voice. He always waited until I had picked up all the poop in the yard, then mozy out in the yard and poop, and look at me like, “You missed a pile, Lady." He was a healthy 77 pounds the day he passed away. He managed to check off nearly everything on his bucket list. We had truly hoped to give him Thanksgiving and Christmas. But his little heart just could not hold out that long. We have had dogs our entire lives, and have loved them all. But there was something so very special about Canelo. He took a huge chunk of our hearts with him, and we will forever miss his grumpy face. We have no idea how old he was, but his best life began back on that fateful day in February. He was surrounded by love and tears when his soul gained wings on October 28th. We will love you forever Canelo Cleetus Turner.
