About ABTRR
Our Mission
We are an all-volunteer, non-profit group dedicated to the health and well-being of all Senior and Special Needs Boston Terriers. Our mission and main objective is to rescue and rehabilitate homeless Boston Terriers. All adoption applicants are thoroughly screened using our online adoption application that includes checking vet and personal references, personal interviews, as well as a home visit. Secondary objectives include education in proper nutrition and canine wellness. All dogs are spayed/neutered (if medically appropriate) and heartworm negative prior to adoption. Our ultimate goal is to ensure that every Senior and Special Needs Boston Terrier has the chance to live the life they deserve.
Who We Are
We are a small, dedicated group of Boston Terrier-loving volunteers based in North Texas who stay busy rescuing, training, rehabilitating, transporting, vetting, coordinating and fundraising - all for the love of our chosen breed, the Boston Terrier.
What We Do
All Bostons in the ABTRR Foster Program are thoroughly vetted, heartworm tested, spayed/neutered (if medically appropriate), neurologically assessed, microchipped, and vaccinated (if medically appropriate). We will not turn away a Senior or Special Needs Boston as long as we have available foster space. All Bostons deserve a loving home.
We are unable to accept dogs that exhibit human or dog aggression.
Please note that the adoption process begins with an adoption application followed by reference checks, personal interview, and a home visit. Incomplete applications will not be considered.
We are not a shelter and do not have visiting hours. All dogs in the ABTRR Foster Program are fostered in loving private homes.
All adoptions require an adoption donation to help offset the cost of vetting and proper nutrition while the dog is in our care. ABTRR is a 501(c)3 non-profit rescue organization. All donations are applied to caring for the Boston Terriers in our rescue group.
