Luke and I have felt we wanted to honour our dear Barney passing tragically by giving another Boxer from Boxer Rescue Network Australia (BRNA) a life here with us. BRNA did so much for Barney, a dog that, like they said, wasn’t supposed to live. Barney loved this life so much, we felt like another special dog would surely love it too.
I’ve been following Moose’s story from the start. Surrendered to BRNA because the neighbours had threatened to shoot him for jumping the fence with their alpacas. He did no harm to them. He was surrendered alongside his sister Posie, they were a bonded pair.
They were unable to be adopted together. But Posie has found her home already which is wonderful. Moose has had a few trials with homes but it just hasn’t ended up working out.
Most recently he has been with Destenee, a lovely farm doggy daycare owner who has been fostering him. She has three boxers of her own. Turns out, Moose loves the pack life. He likes the company. Had a little separation anxiety when he arrived at Destenee’s and we could see it here at the farm. He really just wants lots of company all the time.
His criteria read like it was speaking to us personally. Family, lots and lots of dogs, high fences, acreage, someone home all the time.
I contacted Claire and Dagma at BRNA and said we’d like to be his backup plan if no one comes forward. Sounds like he’d love the farm.
Well Claire who I spoke to at BRNA thought we were exactly the kind of home they had hoped for Moose.
We’re excited to have Moose home here at the farm, he had a great first day full of lots of firsts and he’s ready to start his new big life with his new big family.
Welcome to the farm Moose.
Thank you everyone for your support ❤️

What a handsome, sweet dog Moose seems to be!
Oh Moose, you have come to paradise! Bless you & what a lovely tribute to Barney. He reminds me of Bandit also.
Oh my gosh! He is a perfect fit! What a BIG love. 🥰. His face when looking at Louie. 🤣🤣🤣
This is WONDERFUL!!!! WELCOME MOOSE.
Can I ask where is Bandit? Is he still around? I am a bit afraid to ask ? PS. I am very sorry about Barney. 😢😢❤❤
Who is the blonde brindle dog? He, she is vocal.
Although I'm still absolutely shattered about Barney and can't stop the tears, I'm so delighted you are honouring him by bringing the handsome Moose into your life and, by extension, ours. I'm also so thrilled at how well Tilly is doing and it warms my heart to see her being her most "bossy" self once again. I've sent a donation through Paypal in memory of Barney and to welcome Moose and to help buy some more of his favourite toy that your great friend Phil sends. All the best, Mairi

Welcome home Moose!
Dog fishing is so much fun!
Sam is so cute, laying out Moose's history, blending in how she wants to be his new mom. Once you have a pack numbers don't matter.
What a beautiful boy! Thank you for honoring Barney's life. We will miss you Deputy Barney❤. Welcome Moose!❤
It’s a dog’s life! (I’m jealous!)🐕
OMG this is Doggies Club Med. Paradise for the dogs.
All that exercise, socialization and mental stimulation, Moose will think he is in doggy heaven!!! I loved the way Moose just walked into the Farm life as though he had been there for years, he is such a good sport.
Wonderful news ❤
Awww ❤❤

Barney was such a special boy. What a fitting tribute to give another boxer an opportunity to live the wonderful Farm life. 💖💖💖💖💖
