Meet Corinn
I know you are looking at me and thinking that I'm in pretty bad shape. And you would be very close to being right. My name is Corinn, and I have been so desperate to find some help. Well, "help" has arrived in the form of Lone Star Boxer Rescue! Read more about Corinn...
Update!
- August 2008 - Corinn's skin has cleared up nicely and on the outside she is looking very healthy. However, her heart is enlarged due to the heartworms wreaking havoc on her. We are patiently preparing her body for the heartworm treatment that she will need to undertake; we are hopeful that she will be healthy enough to start treatment in mid August.
The 2nd Annual Bet on a Boxer PokerFest will be held on Friday, October 24th. More details are on their way!

Become a Foster Parent Fosters, we desperately need you!
The number of boxers that LSBR can save depends on the number of volunteers willing to foster.
Becoming a foster parent takes dedication, love and a firm commitment to helping your foster dog be the best it can be. When you foster, you will be providing food, care and a loving home - all of which contribute to an ideal environment in which the dog can thrive and improve. As a foster, part of your responsibilities will be to crate train, teach basic commands, and nurture the dog so that it can become more adoptable. By accomplishing the above tasks, you will significantly increase the chances of that dog finding a forever home!
LSBR can't tell you in advance how long you will have a foster; it might be for a few days, or it might be for several months. But the wonderful feeling you get when your foster dog finds its forever home is something you will never forget. It's well worth the effort.
We have several volunteers willing to help you introduce your foster dog into your home. They are available at any time to answer any questions or address concerns you may have. All that we ask from you is a commitment of dedication to your foster dog.
You can help us save more dogs than ever before if you will sign up now.
Please help us help them! Our dogs need you! And so do we.
