My name is Miss Bella!

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.

All of our pets are fostered in private foster homes. Meet and greets are available but must be scheduled with the potential adopter and foster family. We do host different adoption events at local stores when fosters and their foster dogs can attend.

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. It is TRUE!!! We would love to have you join us!
