Ruff Start Boxer Rescue

Our animal rescue concentrates on saving boxer dogs and boston terrier dogs from puppy mils aka commercial breeders and backyard breeders. We also take in owner surrendered dogs. This entails vetting, rehabilitating and caring for them until they are ready to become happy, human-loving pets. All animals are spayed or neutered and receive a full vet workup from nose to tail. This includes sometimes major dental work at times, tumor removals, etc. Our organization adopts these dogs nationwide to loving and nurturing homes that strive to fix the broken spirits of animals kept in cages only to produce puppies for pet store sales. We strive ourselves as having one of the best rehab programs for boxers from the puppy mills in the entire country and our volunteers and members pour their heart and souls into helping to rehab these damaged souls into wiggle butts who will find forever homes.

To rescue, provide medical attention, rehabilitate and eventually rehome puppy mill boxers from commercial puppy mills located throughout the USA. We provide foster homes the education and resources to successfully work with these dogs, to help them to become pets, after living their entire lives in cages as puppy machines. We spay and neuter all the dogs that come through our rescue, breaking the pattern of generating hundreds of puppies into the world as they previously did in the mill.
