HOW YOU CAN HELP
FOSTER
Bakersfield Boxers & Bullies is immensely grateful for our dedicated fosters. They provide essential care and support to our rescued dogs, making their journey to forever homes possible. Our fosters play a vital role in our mission's success, ensuring these dogs receive the love and care they need before adoption. We deeply appreciate their commitment and compassion.
DONATE
Our transport missions, veterinary care, and foster supplies are entirely reliant on the generosity of donors. Bakersfield Boxers & Bullies began with a commitment to rescue 10 dogs, but that initial promise has since grown to encompass 40 dogs, and now we rescue over 100 dogs each year!
ADOPT
Choosing to adopt a dog over buying one provides a loving home to a dog in need, reduces overpopulation in shelters, and promotes responsible pet ownership. It's a compassionate choice that makes a positive impact on both the dog and its new owner.
