IRS990/Desc0Vetting and Medical Care: Boston Buddies primary focus is on rescuing those dogs that are truly in need of rescue. Each of our private and municipal rescue partners knows we will take in any dog, no matter its medical condition. Boston Buddies' largest single expense is vet fees. In 2024 Boston Buddies' vet fees totaled $129662. When dogs are taken into care by Boston Buddies they each receive a vet exam, including heartworm and fecal testing, blood panels for senior and sick dogs, other diagnostic procedures as necessary, vaccinations, spay/neuter, microchip implantation and registration and any treatment or surgeries needed. Boston Buddies spends on average $2125 per dog to get them ready for adoption.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Adoption Program: Boston Buddies takes into our care dogs from animal shelters and owners no longer able to care for them. Dogs are either placed in a volunteer foster home or boarded (when no foster homes are available). In 2024 Boston Buddies spent $31250 to board dogs when volunteer foster homes were not available. Once the dogs have been vetted and medical needs taken care of we put them on our website and social media, listed on Petfinder and Adopt a Pet and advertised as adoptable. Boston Buddies charges an Adoption Fee for our dogs. Adoption Fees range from $100-$600 depending on the age and medical needs of the particular dog. Pre-pandemic Boston Buddies participated in adoption fairs and events where we would bring current foster dogs looking for homes. Boston Buddies follows up on all adoptions and remains committed to the dogs for their lifetime. Our Adoption Agreement requires that dogs be returned to Boston Buddies in the event the adopter dies or can no longer care for them. Boston Buddies remains available to adopters, and to members of the general public, for advice and trouble shooting for their dogs. Boston Buddies never euthanizes due to space limitation or length of time in foster care. Boston Buddies has assisted over 2550 dogs in need from time of inception through December 2024.
