A 501(C)3 Non-Profit Organization Serving New England

I had the absolute pleasure of meeting George today. What a gorgeous boy, with the most stunning eyes, and sweet demeanor.
George is estimated to be around 2 years old. No one knows because he came from that horrific Merrimac hoarding situation last summer. He was a boxer, with no name, frightened, and skin and bones.
He was adopted out by the shelter and has been with a family since early July, where he's gained some much needed weight and has slowly been learning to trust and be a dog.
Unfortunately, George is fighting with another resident boxer and things are getting increasingly harder to manage. It's not fair to either dog to need to be kept separate. It's no way to live.
George would crumble if he had to return to a shelter environment. He's come so far, and to bring him back, would break his little spirit.
We are hopeful that we can find George a family that will meet his needs and continue to help him on his journey to healing.
George loves his people. He is a professional leaner and stays close to those who care for him. He is accustomed to a work from home schedule and that has really aided in his progress. We'd love George to land in a work from home situation or perhaps with a retired human, so he can have lots of time to establish a bond and feel safe.
He is great in his crate. In fact, he prefers the crate over free roam. Too much space is scary for this gentle soul. He gets anxious. By keeping his world small, he feels content. 
George is housebroken. He picked up on that pretty quickly, considering he was absolutely not housebroken when he was originally adopted out by the shelter.
If he's nervous, he may potty a little bit. But, it's only when he's very unsure or frightened. Given the hell he lived in, who can blame him for getting scared sometimes.
He's learning to walk on the leash and enjoy it. Baby steps, but he will get there, with time and patience.  He's not a huge fan of the car, but he's had limited exposure to vehicles so it's understandable that he'd be unsure. Again, practice and positive experiences will help him along.
He loves his teenage human sister a lot. He could be placed in a home with kids 10ish and over.

George didn't ask for this life. He didn't ask to be treated like garbage, and used to make money for some scumbag backyard breeder. He didn't ask to be starved, neglected, mistreated, and unloved.  For a boxer who has been through so much, his spirit shines brightly. He just needs a human or family willing to make sure his light doesn't dim. He's a work in progress.. a true, deserving, rescue boy.

If you would like to rewrite George's story and be his happily ever after, please reach out asap. We need to secure this boy a home so his current family can stop worrying about a fight happening between the dogs.
George is a keeper... he's simply awesome
