Now more than ever, Casper needs a foster home!


Casper is a young male boxer who has not had a good start in life. He came to us in January after being left tied over night in front of the SPCA Jean Talon. The poor guy seems to not have had a drop of love in his previous life. When Casper came to us, he had no manners and lacked impulse control. Now that he is having positive reinforcement clicker training sessions every day - he is showing us how incredibly smart he is! Casper is a very fast learner and is very motivated. He is affectionate and he loves to be around people. Because Casper still needs to continue his training, he is looking for a very specific foster home - no young children, no cats, and no dogs. Unfortunately such a foster home has not been found yet and Casper has been kennelled so far. Even though he is in a beautiful kennel, he has been in there too long and he is getting stressed. We would love to find him a foster home where he can continue his training and relax in a real home and loving environment. If this sounds like your home - please contact us or find out more about fostering here.

Thank you Ann and Alstonvale Kennel!!

A big thank you to Ann who is donating her services to board Casper at the beautiful Alstonvale Kennel while he waits to find a temporary foster home! If you need dog boarding in the Montreal area, we highly recommend Alstonvale Kennel. Please see their website here chenilalstonvale.com

An urgent plea from BRQ

Hi everyone,

Every year BRQ grows and is able to save more and more boxers. Sadly, this year, we have more abandoned boxers than ever and we are struggling to keep up with the need for more foster homes. We find oursleves with more dogs than homes. Some of these dogs are in danger of euthanasia.

In particular, we are in need of foster homes without other dogs - you can imagine how hard it is for us to find dog lovers with no dogs of their own, willing to foster. If you know of a dog lover who is not in a position to own a dog permanently, however would enjoy the companionship of a K9 on a temporary basis - please pass this note on and ask them to contact us at info@boxerrescuequebec.com

We have several dogs in need of a temporary home right now, as well as dogs waiting to come into rescue. The more foster homes we have, the more lives we can save.

Thank you for reading,

Crystal
BRQ

About us

          

adopt a boxer dog montrealHere at Boxer Rescue Quebec, our main goals are to rescue and re-home boxers in need, educate the public about responsible dog ownership and to preserve the reputation of the boxer breed.  We also offer advice and suggestions to boxer owners who are trying to place their own boxers in forever homes themselves.  And of course to assist other rescue organizations with similar goals and philosophies.

Our philosophy is based on a holistic approach to all aspects of a dog's well-being. This includes education and training, nutrition and health, and behavior.
 
Our main concern is to reduce stress and prepare the boxer for his new home and family, mentally, psychologically, emotionally and physically. A well-rounded boxer is what we aim for.
 
BRQ promotes responsible ownership and provides on-going support to all adopters on a permanent basis. We strongly believe that matching our boxers with the perfect owners is of primary importance and will take the time that it takes to thoroughly evaluate each boxer and its potential adopters. Our rescue prides itself in the amount of care we provide to our boxers and the support we provide to our adopters. Once a family has adopted from BRQ, they become part of our rescue family permanently.
 
BRQ values all boxers and is committed above all to preserving the reputation of the boxer breed. All our boxers are fully vet checked, spayed/neutered, worm checked  and temperament evaluated before placement. Health records and information are provided to the adopters.

HELP SAVE A BOXER! DONATE TO BOXER RESCUE QUEBEC
 
As a volunteer run registered non profit CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION, we are always looking for financial support in order to better help boxers in need and those that require special attention and/or have special medical needs. We do not receive any regular funding and rely solely on donations and fundraising to survive. We have no large pet food companies or other corporate sponsors giving us money.

These are some of the expenses rescue pays for in preparation for the adoption of a rescue to a new forever home. Not to mention the special cases where a rescue is severely malnourished, underweight or, ill and needing specialized treatment. 

Every boxer rescued receives these treatments prior to adoption: 
Spay/Neuter
Vaccines
Heartworm test/treatment/pills
Flea-tick check/treatment
Stool analysis
Full health examination
Antibiotics and medications if needed 
Boarding fee
Surgery when needed ( health issues ie. lumps, broken limbs ) 
 X RAYS when needed


 A big thank you to everyone who has been involved with BRQ this past year to volunteer their time or to contribute by sending monetary donations to help these rescues!
