Loving Pit Bull-Boxer Mix Available For Free Adoption at Southern Indiana Shelter

Our Pet of the Week is another FREE adoption opportunity with It Takes a Village in Evansville. Thanks to a generous sponsor, this sweet fella named J.R. has no adoption fee, which means he is FREE to the right home.

J.R. is a two-and-a-half-year-old Pit Bull-Boxer mix, combining a pit bull's intelligence with a boxer's playful energy. According to our friends at It Takes a Village, this thick and sturdy fellow is not just a dog - he's a love machine that is ready to shower his potential family with affection.

J.R. is looking for a home that can give him regular exercise, mental stimulation, and, of course, plenty of affection - a home that enjoys outdoor activities, playtime, and snuggling on the couch.

If you're interested in making J.R. a part of your family, please fill out an online adoption application, and then once approved, you can schedule a meet and greet with this lovable fella who is sure to bring joy and warmth into your home.

All the animals at It Takes a Village are examined by a veterinarian, given age-appropriate vaccinations, dewormed, microchipped, spayed or neutered, heartworm tested, and treated if necessary.

If our pet of the week isn’t the right fit for your home, please visit It Takes a Village to see the other rescues that need to get fostered and adopted. And don't forget about their RENT A DOG Program. A quick fill form and copy of your photo ID will allow you time out with one of ITV's vetted shelter dogs. These day dates are great for the rescues - it gets them some exercise and new information to help us get them adopted. It’s been a big hit- so don’t miss out!
