"Ch boxer rescue has been a great rescue to work with. I’ve been fostering for them for just over a year and have had 6 fosters and kept one of them. They’re super supportive of their fosters and are very reasonable with their adoption process and pricing. They’re just an all around amazing rescue!!"

"I lost my second boxer in the fall of 2023 and her passing left a void within our family. We wanted to fill that empty space but each of us was in a different place in the grieving process between myself, my spouse, and our two young children. I found Chelsea’s Hope Boxer Rescue on social media and almost immediately filled out an application. Over the past months I have had the opportunity to work with many of the volunteers within the rescue, each working tirelessly, communicating with each other and the network of fosters. We are currently fostering our third rescue, and hope to make him a permanent member of our family. Even though we have found that special dog who makes our family feel whole again, I think we all find so much joy helping as many pups find their forever homes and will continue to foster when we can. There are too many animals suffering from neglect, starving, in need of help and love, and the volunteers at CHBR do everything they can to match dogs to the fosters and adopters that need each other."

"CH Boxer Rescue was very pleasurable to work with. They were quick to respond and answer any questions or concerns. They seem genuinely concerned and invested in the wellbeing and happiness of the dogs that they foster and adopt out.

"I had a wonderful experience adopting my sweet boxer girl from Chelsea’s Hope Boxer Rescue. From my first call from Nancy to conversations with Loretta and Melissa before and after my adoption. It all went smooth and Chloe (Rylee) is such a blessing to our home. I needed her just as much as she needed me. She’s fun, gentle and smart. These dogs and puppies are so lucky to have such caring and dedicated people rescuing and helping them get to better places. I would recommend this rescue to everyone and can’t thank them enough for bringing Chloe into my life ❤️ very grateful"

— kerri s.

Adoptee, Staff member, Fan

"I will be forever grateful to Chelsea's Hope Boxer Rescue for sending us our sweet Tootsie. When I spoke to Loretta, she listened to my needs and felt that Tootsie was the perfect dog for my 12 year old son and I. I drove to New Jersey to meet Liz on a cold Christmas Eve morning and it was love at first sight. From that point on, the rescue never stopped supporting Tootsie. They helped get her foot wound healed and made sure she was vaccinated and spayed. I send Liz and Loretta pics to update them on the amazing dog they rescued. The rescue has been there for me, to answer my questions and guide me. I will forever be grateful to this amazing rescue who truly loves their dogs."

My Dog Is Food Aggressive With Other Dogs: What To Do
Does your dog ever growl when you walk by their food dish? Maybe they get possessive of treats, carrying them far away and giving you side-eye when you start to approach — or snarling at your other pets or children if they get too close.
Scent Training for Dogs: A Beginner's Guide
As almost every dog owner is aware, the nose of a dog is an amazing thing. Just as they can pick up sounds we can’t hear, their sense of smell and ability to pick up scents is well beyond ours. In fact, dogs have 40 times the number of olfactory receptors as humans.
Service Dog Training Costs: DIY vs. Pro
More than 80 million Americans rely on their service dogs to help them navigate the world. Task-trained assistance animals perform a huge range of life-changing—in many cases, life-saving—services: These dogs act as eyes for visually impaired handlers, provide mobility support, alert to seizures and blood sugar crashes, interrupt anxiety attacks, remind their people to take medications, and so much more.
What is and How to Handle Potty Training Regression
You thought your dog was house trained. Your home was clean from puddles of pee, those dreaded middle-of-the-night bathroom breaks were behind you, and you loved every minute of dog ownership… until your four-legged best friend started using the bathroom inside again. What’s going on?
Coprophagia: Why Does Your Dog Eat Poop?
Ah, poop. We humans think it’s disgusting… but many of our dogs seem to love the stuff. If you’re wondering why your canine companion tries to eat feces (either their own or that of other animals) you’re not alone!

Daily Exercise Calculator: How Much Exercise Does Your Dog Need?

Dog reactivity guides

Rottweiler Aggression: Truth vs. Myth
Many dogs have gotten a bad reputation over the years for being "dangerous breeds." Rottweilers are among them. Like pit bulls and other large, blocky-headed types of dogs, these powerful and beautiful animals are often assumed to be aggressive.
What Is a Reactive Dog? A Guide to Understanding Reactivity
So: Your dog is reactive. They’ll see another dog, person, or other stimulus in the environment (cars, bikes, skateboards, and other fast-moving objects are also common triggers) while out on a walk and suddenly go crazy at the end of their leash. The barking, lunging, and growling not only feels embarrassing for you — it’s clear that your pup isn’t having a great time either.
How to Socialize a Reactive Dog: A Step-by-Step Guide
Does your dog display reactivity to other pets or people? Maybe they’re a new rescue pup and are still settling into your home. Or they were sick growing up, so you missed their critical socialization period. Possibly they’ve had a bad experience after being raised as a normal puppy.
