Attention: LSBR is on Intake Hold
LSBR
has recently been inundated with calls regarding owner surrenders,
strays, and those who have been abandoned. Additionally, many boxers
are in high risk shelters that need our help as they only have days to
live. Add to this a decline in adoptions, foster homes, and funding,
and LSBR is on crisis mode.
Because of this, we can only accept animals into our program that meet any of the following conditions:
- Previous LSBR dogs whose families need to surrender back to rescue
- Animals who are suffering or are in critical situations
- The owner surrender/founder of a stray can foster and sponsor all vet expenses
As always, LSBR strives to help as many boxers as possible. A rescuers work is never done, but we hope that as the economy gains strength we will see improvements in the number of boxers that need to come into the program, as well as adoptions and volunteers on the rise.
In the meantime - how can you help?
- If you are surrendering a boxer, please give the dog a chance by fostering him and maintaining/treating his medical needs through adoption
- Become a foster parent
- Make a donation which enable us to help save more boxers
