We all work on a volunteer basis. We are not paid for the
rescue work that we do and most of us are working other jobs
as well. We work for rescue because of our love for the boxer
breed. Between us, we have over 100 years of boxer
experience and we are all boxer owners ourselves. We are
the only boxer rescue in Northern Ireland and we do cover the
whole area as required. We have a brilliant vet who helps us
enormously and use a reputable boarding kennels for urgent
cases.
Our staff are:
Founder Member - Jacqui Fyfe-Tanner.
Rescue Hon. Secretary - Barry Nelson.
Rescue Hon. Treasurer - .
Chairperson - Olivia Kennedy (BVetMed MRCVS) of Lurgan Veterinary Clinic
Other committee members - Andrea Cairns and Leesa Nelson.
We also have some brilliant volunteers who help us out when we need it.
Jacqui would like to thank Helen Newman, Darwin Duggan & Adrian Hughes.
OUR AIM
We aim to help any boxer in need of a new home, trying our
hardest to match the new home and owners with a suitable dog
for their lifestyle.
All dogs being rehomed are required to be neutered and
vaccinated as a condition of adoption and we do enforce this
carefully. Anyone wishing to re home a boxer from us will be thoroughly
home checked, and decisions regarding rehoming, will be
made by our committee.
We are not for profit, and any funds that we receive go
directly into rescue and the boxers that we care for.
We follow up every dog that we re home. They are visited by
us after 6-8 weeks in their new home and we keep in contact for the rest of the boxers life. We will work with the boxers new owners to provide them with
as much or as little support as they may need when they bring their new boxer home.
