The Boston
Terrier Rescue of North Carolina (BTRNC) is a non-profit 501(c)3
organization that was founded in 2004. BTRNC primarily serves North
Carolina but is active in South Carolina, Virginia, and Georgia as
well. We are an organization run completely by volunteers, many of whom
also juggle families, full time jobs, and other personal
responsibilities. Bostons
come to us from shelters and directly from owners. They enter into
volunteer foster homes throughout North Carolina and live with the
foster family and other pets. Each Boston receives vaccinations,
micro-chipping, spaying/neutering, vet visits, and any needed medical
treatment.
BTRNC Mission Statement
Boston
Terrier Rescue of North Carolina is dedicated to rescuing,
rehabilitating, and finding new
adoptive homes for Boston Terriers surrendered by private owners and
obtained from shelters, humane
societies, and animal welfare organizations.
Goals:
-- Rescue Boston Terriers from abuse/neglect situations, owner
surrenders, animal
shelters, humane societies and animal welfare organizations.
-- Place rescued dogs in BTRNC designated
foster homes or qualified foster homes of fellow
rescue organizations as appropriate.
-- Adopt
dogs to approved permanent “forever” homes that meet the
suitability/compatibility requirements set forth in the covenants of
BTRNC.
-- Reduce the return rate of dogs from
adoptive families by ensuring that
dogs are only
placed in those homes that most closely match the
temperament and needs of the dog.
-- Maintain a financial base from which
dogs in the BTRNC program are
provided rehabilitation services
including behavior/temperament
assessment, training, and
veterinary care.
-- Establish and maintain a
relationship with shelters, humane societies
and other rescue agencies wherein reliable information
and
communication enables the rapid identification and relocation of Boston
Terriers, which minimizes the potential for any Boston Terrier to be
euthanized.
