Shelter Boxers in Need of Foster Homes

We are bursting at the seams with boxers in need of foster homes. These four tested well with other dogs and are looking to NCBR for the chance at a new beginning. These kids know that without available homes they do not stand a chance. If you can open your home to a boxer RIGHT NOW we need to hear from you. Time is of the essence for these kids! https://ncbr.org/foster/

The shelter pups are coming in fast and furious lately, and we need two more foster homes for these gorgeous boxer mixes, Oso and Littles.

Oso and Littles are approximately four years old. Shelter staff have found them to be friendly. They can be a little shy at first but warm up to gentle people. They also know basic commands and take treats gently.

These boys are in need of rescue and need committed foster homes before we can spring them from the shelter. If you or someone you know can open your heart and home to Oso or Littles, please complete a foster application ASAP at https://ncbr.org/foster/

Strut Your Mutt 2020 Was an INCREDIBLE Success!

Strut Your Mutt ended in October, and we were blown away by your support! We raised just over $97,000, not only setting a new fundraising record for NCBR, but also becoming the top team out of all of the participating organizations in the country. The funds we raised will be used to provide much-needed medical care and behavioral intervention for the dogs we love so much.

Our success this year demonstrated what we already observe each day in rescue: that it requires a team of people all willing to pitch in to make a difference. Even without an in-person event this year, a record 162 people registered to be on our Strut Your Mutt team, and we received nearly 900 individual donations.

In addition to the hundreds of individuals who gave to our Strut Your Mutt team, many businesses offered their support through in-kind donations that fueled our team challenges. Thank you to Barkbox, The Blissful Dog, Burnin’ Love Art Studio, Earthbath, Earth Rated, Great Shots Photography, Max and Neo, Naughty Boy Vineyards, Pet Photos By Olin, Santa Clara County Parks, Stark Naked Creative, and Sweater Hound for your support!

THANK YOU to each of you who paid it forward this year by contributing in some way to this fundraiser. We are proud to have such dedicated and compassionate people on our team.

Introducing Eusoh – an Insurance Alternative

Eusoh is a revolutionary, affordable, subscription-based alternative to veterinary insurance. Subscribers become group members who share veterinary costs with each other. As a member, you make an initial $48 deposit and pay a $17/month subscription fee. 80% of veterinary costs are reimbursed to group members, with funds drawn evenly from all members’ $48 deposit. At the end of each month, you pay as much as is needed to restore your balance to $48. This means that, at most, you will pay $65 per month ($17 deposit plus $48 balance) to remain a member. However, your contribution will vary by month and may be as low as $17.

Subscribe now, and enter the code “NCBR!” NorCal Boxer Rescue will receive $40 for each referral!

Grey Muzzle Thank You!

We are so honored to be a Grey Muzzle Organization grantee again this year! Thanks to Grey Muzzle’s support, the next 10 senior boxers who are adopted will come with up to $1000 of post-adoption support, which will be reimbursed to adopters for any veterinary need that arises within the first year of adoption. We know that many of you have a soft spot for frosted faces, but that the cost of caring for a senior boxer has given you pause when it comes to adopting one. We hope that this support will give you the security you need to give your heart away to a beautiful older soul. Thank you, Grey Muzzle, for trusting in us and for supporting our efforts! We are grateful for your partnership!

Thank you, Hoven Foundation.

Each dog who enters our lives is a gift. They bring us untold joy and share with us their unconditional love. They teach us to be better people. For nearly 10 years, The Hoven Foundation has not only appreciated the gift that each dog represents, but they have given back generously. The continued support of the Hoven Foundation has meant the difference between life and death for countless beautiful souls. Thank you to the Hoven Foundation for what you give to our dogs and, in turn, to all those whose lives those dogs touch.

Thank you, Pet Food Express!

Thank you Pet Food Express for your generous donations to our pantry for our foster dogs. This is just a very small example of how much this company has helped our organization. As you can see, the pups also enjoy getting to join in on supply pick up days.
