The average, healthy Boxer is in foster care for 3 months.

The average cost to NCBR during this time is over $360.

1 in 3 Boxers in our program requires treatment for heartworms
at an additional average cost of $220.

NCBR's adoption fee of $250 is rarely enough to cover the
costs of the average, healthy dog.
