We are very sad to let you know that we have started the process of winding down Thistle Boxer Rescue, as an operating Charity and boxer dog rescue. We are working with OSCR in this process and hoping to have completed all the necessary steps by the end of September, including shutting down our social media pages and website.
We have ceased all rescue activities, and are therefore not taking on any further dogs into our care, or accepting foster or adoption applications. We have also ceased any active fundraising activities. As part of this process we are contacting all the families that have adopted dogs through us to advise on what will happen in the future with support.
We have loved being able to rescue and rehome dogs over the last 6 years, but unfortunately due to operating challenges it makes it difficult to continue being run by such a small team of volunteers
For those of you that have given their time, support and money over the years we are incredibly thankful. 🙏
We are very proud of what we have achieved as such a small charity. It has been incredibly hard work, but very fulfilling, and we hope that the passion and energy that we have for boxers and our dedication to finding their forever sofas, has come across. The charity has always had the best interests of the breed at the heart of what we do.
If you have any regular donations set up, or have us nominated as your charity of choice anywhere, please can you change this.
We will miss giving you daily social media posts and providing updates on the dogs that have come through our care over the years, but we look forward to following their progress via other boxer pages.
Thank you again for your support
Diane, Libby, Stacey, Fiona and Kate 🐾🐾🐾🙏
