Boston Terrier Club of CT, Rescue
Our program is dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating and re-homing unwanted and abandoned Boston Terriers. The Club members who run the rescue program are dedicated to finding a permanent, loving home for all Boston's in their care. We work full time jobs during the day and care for fosters, travel to home visits and return calls in the evening and weekends for the most part. Please call back if I haven't returned your call, keep in mind the club doesn't pay for long distance calls so please call us in the evenings. Or email us for the best time to call. See our current rescues at the Petfinder link above.
Owner Release Form ***If you need (or know someone who does) to find a new home for your Boston Terrier, Esther Tyler at bostonrescuect@cox.net or (860) 667-2572 for assistance. Anything of theirs that comes with them , helps in their transition.
Rescued Boston Terriers are fostered in a home, socialized with other dogs and people. We temperament test many of our Boston's to aid in making a good match with a prospective adopter. We will typically pick up a surrendered Boston at their home to speak with the owner to better understand the Boston and it's needs and behavior before coming into foster care. Sometimes we may pick up a Boston at a shelter but most come from owner surrender. Since they are fostered in our homes their may be some that are not suitable for home fostering or care.
Some of the things we look for in a new family for one of our dogs is knowledge and understanding, resources to adequately provide for a Boston and the willingness to work with any medical/behavioral issues the dog may have.
While many times the interest in adopting a Boston Terrier exceeds the number of Boston's we may have in rescue, we encourage you to submit an application anyway. We will keep your application on file and will contact you if a Boston arrives that we think will be a good match with you. In turn if you no longer are interested we ask that you let us know.
Please be aware that to help off-set the expenses incurred in providing necessary care for a Boston Terrier in rescue, the adoption fee is $250, this is paid only if we find a Boston that you adopt, not before.
