Red Dirt Boxer Rescue

is a newly formed group of dedicated volunteers with many years of experience in performing rescue work with other established groups. We are in the process of gaining our non profit, 501(C)3 status.

RDBR  provides several valuable rescue services for the public, from taking in abandoned and abused boxers from shelters as well as accepting owner surrendered Boxers from private individuals. We conduct a thorough adoption process: continuing long after a boxer has found it's new forever home. RDBR also helps current boxer owners with behavioral problems in order to help families keep their beloved companion. We strive to promote responsible pet ownership through education, outreach, and promotion of healthy dog habits.

Our volunteers include individuals who have rescue, dog training and behavior experience. Most important we are boxer owners dedicated to saving the breed we all love unconditionally. » More About Us

 

Please Help Buster

 

Hi, my name is Buster. 

I am not feeling too great right now.  They say I have Parvo.  The man who had me got all my shots, but I still got sick.  He didn't have the money to fix me, so he took me to the vet and told them to do what ever with me.  Not sure what that meant, but everyone sure looked sad.  The lady at the vets office called Red Dirt to see if they could help. 

The vet said she would keep the cost down as much as possible, but Parvo is not easy to treat.  Doc put this thing in my arm, that is helping make me feel better.  The call it an IV, I call it an OUCHIE.  They tell me after a few days with this thing, I should get better.  Then I will get to go to my foster mom, who is already waiting on me.  After they make sure I am good and strong, I will have a little surgery, then RDBR is going to find me a forever home. 

One that will always love me and take care of me.  It is going to take a some time before I get all better again.  I know taking care of me is going to be expensive.  Then when I get better I am going to need a collar and some toys and some food and a new bed.  One that is way softer than here at the vet office.  Oh, and I need a yard to play in, and a truck (or car or jeep or Harley) to take me to the dog park and puppy school.  I need kids too, you can't have a boxer with out kids to kiss.  Wow, I can think of all kinds of things I am going to need.  I sure hope RDBR knows what they are getting into. 

Maybe you could help them with some of the stuff I need? 

 

They are trying really hard to help me and all the other boxers like me.  If you could just give a little, it sure would help them.  I am such a cute guy, if I must say so myself.  Do you think Abercrombie makes collars?  A stud muffin like me, can't just wear anything.  Look at this mug, how can you say no?

Please help us help Buster and all his boxer friends here at RDBR.

Thank you,
The dogs and volunteers of Red Dirt Boxer Rescue.

Success Story: Its All About Faith

Heidi was not unlike many boxers that RDBR rescues every month.

She was raised by backyard breeders and lived a life of pumping out puppies to make her owners pockets heavier. When she could not produce enough puppies per litter she was dumped at the shelter. That is where we found this diamond in the rough.

Heidi was, from day one, a dream dog. She could sit, stay, crate and she recalled well. She did not have any accidents in the house and she loved her rubs. When RDBR first received Heidi into rescue she was timid and very emaciated. She was skin and bones and no one would have began to conceive what was growing inside her belly. Her appointment was set for the following Saturday to be spayed, vaccinated and have all of her tests completed. However her tiny little emaciated body could not wait any longer and on Thursday September the 13th 2007 Heidi brought three boxer babies into the world.

A shocker to say the least, how could these puppies have even survived living inside such a frail thin body? » Read More
