Rescue
It's a sad reality, but the truth is that no matter how many dogs we pull into our program, there are always others that need our help, and need it fast. Below are some of the dogs that need our attention today, before their time is up.
How can you help?
Become a foster parent - the number of dogs we can save is contingent upon the number of foster parents we have. We'll work with you to find the right foster dog for your family, making room for one the dogs below. More on fostering...
Sponsor one of the dogs below - make a donation that will allow us to pull the dog, provide boarding, and get it veterinary care. Donate today...
Attn: LSBR is on Intake Hold
Please note - previous LSBR dogs whose families need to
surrender back to rescue are NOT part of this hold. PLEASE contact us
if this situation pertains to you.
As of November 23, 09, LSBR is sadly but officially on "rescue hold" and will be unable to rescue any boxers in local shelters or take in any owner surrender boxers without full sponsorship of vetting, boarding and/or foster care. We are asking other rescues/rescuers and members of the public to please help the boxers that come in to our area shelters. LSBR will be happy to courtesy post.
This difficult decision was made as a result of LSBR's lack of funds, reduction in available fosters and boarding options, reduction in active volunteers, reduction in adoption applications and finally, an overwhelming number of dogs needing rescue. LSBR hopes this situation will improve with a focus on fundraising and an effort to adopt out the current dogs in rescue.
If you are interested in helping a boxer on "rescue me", please contact the intake team at intaketeam@lsbr.org. You will be asked to sponsor the dog's vetting and either offer the dog foster care or donate a minimum of one month's boarding expense (avg. $200 per month).
For the past 10 years, LSBR has rescued hundreds and hundreds of boxers in need and never discriminates against dogs that are old, sick, injured, heartworm positive, white, with tails or without, etc., We believe that is what rescue is all about. We have responded to the pleas of other rescuers and shelters from not only the Houston area but from all over Texas and beyond.
Now LSBR has to ask for YOUR help.
Unfortunately, fundraising and donations have not kept up with the number of dogs we have taken and placed in wonderful homes. The average cost to rehabilitate a boxer is $600.
Please consider fostering "Just One Dog" and joining LSBR as a volunteer to help with fundraising and many other activities. Thank you for your understanding and support!
