Our foster went to her forever home on Sunday and is adjusting to her new life where she gets spoiled with five walks a day. Arriving Sunday, we'll stay taking this sweet girl what the good life is like.
Meet Reba. She's our new roommate while she finds her boxer wiggles and let's go of life as a puppy mill mama. You can follow MN Boxer Rescue for updates on our sweetheart.
