2021 NCBR SUPPORTER TRIBUTES
Donating in honor of Alyssa Harmon-Ettl and Mathew Ettl
Happy Birthday Tish!
Merry Christmas Dad!
In memory of Mary Healy, whose sweet spirit is missed by everyone fortunate enough to have known her, but especially the Boxers who could always count on her for a treat under the table.
With knowing eyes and a wizened wiggly butt, Xochi spread happiness wherever he went. No one who met Xochi can ever forget him.
We know you loved that Sassy Sammie girl and gave her the best life ever.
I have made a donation gift to NorCal Boxer Rescue for Christmas for my Granddaughter and her husband, Michelle and Andy Brashears.

In Memory of Vinny the beloved Boxer of our daughter Rhonda and her husband Nick. Vinny was loved by our whole family and was always the honored guest at all of our family gatherings. He is still missed by all of us. Thanks to NCBR for your work on behalf of this lovely breed of dogs.
Vinny passed 12/31/2012
Merry Dogmas to Molly Bukro and all the other superb foster moms out there. Molly, I know you put your heart and soul into helping heal (and heel) boxers and finding them loving homes. Bless you for all you do. I am fortunate to be your mother, and I am so proud of you and all you do. This gift is also from (in absentia) all the former family boxers: Uma, Wrinkles, Sophie, Blanche, Gussie, and Wilson — and from Finn, a boxer at heart.
In memory of Pilgrim, the sweetest baby sitting buddy to fill our house with laughter and love…..will remember him always.

Pilgram

Tom, I am so sorry for your loss. Pilgrim was a such a wonderful companion for you and I know a piece of your heart goes with him. Sending you so much love and hugs.

We feel like we’re still hearing and seeing Red at times. He was with us for only 5 years but his presence goes on forever just like Sadie before him.
When I head to the front door from the garden I almost see him racing to get to the door before me from where he’d been laying in the sun. We miss his delight at getting a new toy which was always full of joyous celebration. We miss his zoomies up and down the hallway with a toy in his mouth, and his happiness to just run around the yard. We miss his big brown eyes asking to cuddle with us on the couch when he got tired. Every time I ask Bob if he’s hungry, I expect Red to jump up and follow me into the kitchen as though my question was just for him to answer. When the cell phone rings I can almost hear Red woowooing in answer. Red had so much joy and wagged his tail so hard at times we worried he’d break it. Even when this cruel disease took away his ability to walk or wag, he showed his joy with licks and woowoos.
Red was dad’s buddy and mom’s protector. We sorely miss his physical presence but we have his spirit with us and so many good memories.

We miss you so much. You gave us so much joy and happiness. You were our princess, our flower girl in our wedding and the sweetest girl who always loved to hug it out. We will always cherish all the memories and know you will forever be our “Keeper.” Until we meet again.

In memory of Bentley and our deepest sympathies to Rebecca, his best of best friends. We will always love Bentley’s distinctive little flash on the back of his neck and remember his energy and spirit in his sweet smiles in his ResQwalk photos.
Rebecca dearest, we are so sorry for Bentley’s passing. We know he was your family and best friend and our hearts cry for your loss. You gave him a life and love not many dogs get to enjoy. We shall keep Bentley in our hearts; he certainly was a sweetheart. We love you so so much and wish we could take some of your pain and grief away. Hugs and kisses from your family here in the Ozarks.
In memory of Oski and Sassy

Dear Olive,
We love you and miss you so much! We are lucky to have spent the past decade with you. We will always remember your big eyes, your wiggle-womp, your outgoing personality, your love for food and a warm fire, and your aversion to rain. You were a sweet, gentle and adorably stubborn soul – and you’ll always be part of our family.
Boxer-Bean, Jelly-Bean, Snaggletooth, Loggy-Doggy, GoodGirl… Olive.
Dixon to Olive dog: I miss you.

We feel incredibly lucky and honored that Katie joined our family. She was so loving and gentle with our kids, brought a smile to our faces every day, and taught us how amazing it feels to open your heart to a rescue dog.
Although there is now a huge hole in our hearts, we take comfort in knowing that she’s no longer suffering. She’s running and playing with Harley & Mattie on the other side of that rainbow.
Thank you NCBR for giving us the opportunity to love our Katie Bug. We will cherish her memory forever!
