All rescue dogs do not have personality problems. Foreclosure and moving are topping the list right now of reasons that an owner may surrender a pet. Other reasons a dog may be relinquished to a shelter or rescue may include: health of a family member; age or infirmity of the dog; too many animals in the household; or determination that the cost of responsible dog ownership is too high. Many dogstaken in by rescues and shelters were found as stray and remained unclaimed by their owners. Also consider judgement when a dog is surrendered for behavioral issues. Lack of focus on training on the part of owner for an “issue” does not constitute a “bad” or “aggressive” animal per se. What it does constitute is laziness and irresponsible dog ownership.
Northeast Boston Rescue (NEBTR) is comprised of volunteers based in NY, NJ, PA, CT, and parts of other states, and serves Boston Terriers in need within reach of our helping hands.
