For the past several months, Lone Star Boxer Rescue has been blessed by having Titan Boxers (of the Houston Boxer Club), foster and volunteer!
It has been many years since we have had breeder particpation. Sometimes rescues become zealous to the extreme of downing all breeding, and this is quite unfortunate! Rescues can benefit greatly from the experience of ethical breeders. And these breeders should actively support rescue. It is a win/win partnership and I can only hope that more will follow suit!

It definitely can be a win/win situation! Kudos to Titan!

Efforts have been made over the recent years to try and narrow that gap that has long existed between some rescues and breeders. The reality is each desperately needs the other. When I first hit the net a long time ago, I tried to touch base with people all over the country. Prior to that, everyone only saw what they saw in their own area. Now we get communicate on a more nationwide basis. I certainly had no clue how large a problem it was with people abandoning their Boxers.
Kudos to that breeder for recognizing a need and doing their best to fulfil it. As a breeder I can tell you I have only grown from my association with rescues. I am sure they will too :)
