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

 

A letter from Heaven

 

Dear Stacie, Please don’t cry for me.  I know it made you very sad to know I didn’t make it.  You tried so hard to save me. 

From the moment you heard about me, from your friends at Pets For Life, you became my light.  Before you, there was only darkness.  I have laid in pain for so long, I didn’t think there would ever be someone who cared.  I have watched through windows, at people laughing, loving, eating and drinking. 

I was not a part of that world.  My world was dirt with a fence around it.  My feces covering the ground, so there is no clean place for me to lay. 

There was no food. 

There was no water. 

I have shrunk in size until I no longer look like the 2 year old that I am. » Read More

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
