Ways to Help
How can you help Green Acres Boxer Rescue? There are lots of things you can do! Below are a few suggestions. Please contact us for more information.
- Make a tax-deductible donation to GABR. Click here to donate.
- Pick up an item or two from our wish list (see below)
- Consider applying to be a foster home.
- Keep an eye out for Boxers in shelters, "free to a good home" Boxers advertised in local newspapers, and any other Boxers that might be in trouble. Please do NOT pull a dog out of a shelter on behalf of a rescue group. Let the rescue group know about the dog. We do check Petfinder listings daily, so it is not necessary to forward Petfinder listings to us.
- Refer people to rescue! Let them know that rescue is a great way to find a new companion.
- For people who would rather have a puppy, warn them not to purchase dogs from pet stores. Instead, educate them about finding a reputable breeder.
- Volunteer for special events

Lately we have a lot of people sending us ads from Craigslist. For the most part, the people who rehome animals on Craigslist want to receive some money in return. We do have a firm policy against paying for dogs, as we need all of our funding to pay for vet care. You're welcome to forward those ads to us, but please understand that we may not be able to help.
