I am looking for a boxer puppy and it seems next to impossible to see or meet a dog before buying. We live in CT I have another pup so it can’t be to old. I tried rescuing but never works. Also I keep looking for breeders in this area and or a boxer rescue with younger dogs any guidance????

Hi, I’m looking for a Lab/Border Collie. I keep seeing claims for this mix online, but can’t find a reputable breeder.

Can you help?
Thanks, E

Every dog we’ve had in the past 40 years has been from a shelter. This time around, I am going to try to find a good breeder and get a breed of my choosing. I agree with the experiences of those who posted here about what it is like to work with a shelter. It is also expensive. $600. of adoption fees. And when you look at the shelter sites, the majority of dogs available are some form of pit bull mix. A dog breed that I don’t want to have. There are never puppies and I want a puppy so I can raise it myself and not deal with any past experiences by the dog that affect their behavior.

In reply to Anne. Hi ! i tried to adopt puppy from the rescue center and they found dog 101 reason why not let me adopt the dog. so SAD. i was so disappointed . Me and my family have all great conditions to adopt a puppy and give a wonderful life but no they said oh you alive to far, your fence is not up to their standard and list go on ....and they want make me to give my dog the heart warm medicine for the whole life. sorry but no. So I was wandering so they keep those poor dogs in cages just to keep their business going?

In reply to D.R.. I am ok with our local shelter but I check the dogs every week and they are first off never puppies, and never cute, all seem to be mangy and abused or if I see a nice looking one it says they do not like cats or chidlren....so I have been waiting 3 years now..and it is frustrating to me not to be able to go to a pet store and just buy a puppy, but none sell them around here at all. I looked at some sites to buy and they wnt more than 2,000 for a puppy? That is insane, only rich people can have puppies anymore.

In reply to Anne. We really want to buy from puppy. I had a dachsund by what this article calls a backyard breeder, well she was the mom of a friend and lived down the street and I am glad I knew her. She sold me the last pup in the litter and he was a joy. He ran and jumped right into my arms and I knew he was the one. He only cost $250 too and as a daycare teacher I was not rich...so I am glad for backyard breeders. He was my dog for 12 years before leaving to live wih my daughter. who insisted it was hers (it was her birthday gift when she turned 7). He is still alive and well at 15.

In reply to D.R.. When I was looking to adopt another dog I found that nearly every breed has a volunteer rescue group. Bu using our states rescue fo schnauzers, we found a perfect dog.
