West Coast Boxer Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that is 100% volunteer based. We are dedicated to improving the lives and welfare of homeless Boxers. West Coast Boxer Rescue rescues and adopts out stray, abandoned, neglected, abused and surrendered Boxers, primarily pure bred, but sometimes Boxer mixes and other breeds.

West Coast Boxer Rescue covers a large area to adopt out dogs; we currently work with families in California and Nevada. We focus on dogs that are of the greatest need; ill, injured, seniors, and/or at risk of euthanasia in shelters. For each of our dogs we provide veterinarian care of vaccinations, spay/neuter, microchips, and any medical needs. Our dogs also receive kenneling until a foster can be identified, private foster homes, attention, love, care and carefully screened forever homes.

Why we care…

Not everyone understands Boxers, but those of us that do can’t imagine not having one (or more) as a part of our family. Many of us have had Boxers as a part of our family for years, generations for some, and it breaks our hearts to see them abused, discarded, neglected and abandoned. Our small army of 100% volunteers make a difference to each dog we bring into our care. We may not be making a difference in the world, but we are making a world of difference to each and every one of our dogs.

We are a group of people who want the best for these dogs and have a love for preserving this breed. If you are of the same mindset, we would love to have you to join our group of volunteers. Please help us help Boxers in need.
