Please help!

Over the past several months NCBR has taken in many boxers who have required extensive medical treatment. As a result, NCBR currently owes our veterinarians over $7000.00. Until we are able to put a dent in our vet bills we will be unable to rescue any more boxers in need! Please consider making a donation to help NCBR and our boxers TODAY! Any donation amount is appreciated! For more information on where your donations go, please click here.
