We are a Boston Terrier rescue in North Carolina. We were founded December 2, 2012. We have our 501 (c)(3) designation from the IRS so all donations are fully tax deductible. Our members are extremely loving and very dedicated! Our Facebook page and member Google Group are like one big Boston Terrier lover's support group! We share everything and work very, very hard for the dogs we save. There are people with a multitude of talents at BTRTOC from nurses, to attorneys, to retired folk. We can always use volunteers, donations, people who are crafty!!! It takes all kinds and all talents to save these little guys! At BTRTOC, we like to say it takes a village to save the dogs.

Rescue FAQs

We serve all of North Carolina, and assist in SC, GA, and VA. We have an ever growing contingency of VA and SC volunteers. There are not as many volunteers in GA but we work with several other Boston rescues in NC, SC, and TN to help cover Georgia and also any Boston in need in the above 4 states if another rescue cannot step in.

Additional adoption info

We have a very thorough process. We ask that people fill out our adoption application and submit to both a veterinary reference check where we call their vet to check on the care they give their own personal pets, and a home visit where one of our volunteers does a home inspection. Our adoption coordinator will also call the references that we require a potential adopter to list on the application. These references must not be family members. Our group bases adoption fees on the age and pedigree of the particular dog. We accept small Boston Terrier mixes into our rescue, as well as purebred Boston Terriers. Adopters also sign an adoption contract which is very thorough and requires they give the dog back to us if ever they cannot care for the dog any longer.
