Here to help Boxers across Scotland

Although we are based in the South East of Scotland, we aim to rescue and re-home boxers from across Scotland and have a nationwide network of volunteers and supporters.

Our aim is to rescue and care for all boxers who need our help from across Scotland either following neglect or abuse or where their families are simply no longer able to look after and care for them properly due to a change in circumstances.

Our Aims

Re-home all dogs that come into our care and to never put a healthy dog to sleep

Health check, vaccinate and micro-chip all dogs that come into our care

Ensure all our dogs are neutered and educate people about the importance of doing this

Match each dog to a home based on its specific requirements

Provide a lifetime of advice and support to our adopters and their rescue dogs

Encourage positive training methods and promote responsible ownership

Educate the public about breeders motivated solely by financial gain

Help people make the right decision if they choose to buy a puppy

Support Us

Adopting

Each of our adopted families’ lives has been enriched beyond measure because of the love of our dogs. As well as having a new family member you will have the feeling that you did something special by giving a boxer a second chance and the life they were always meant to have.

Fostering

We are always happy to receive new applications for foster homes. It is not essential that you are currently a dog owner, all we look for is that you can provide a safe home and have the time and commitment to help a boxer in need.
