- WA BOXER RESCUE is a non-profit corporation located in
Washington State, USA. We work with several reputable dog
clubs throughout the surrounding states to insure the safe
and proper placement of our boxers in rescue. The founder
of this organization, Terrie McCanse, is the owner of Blasia's
Boxers and has over 25 years of experience with this breed.
Terrie has taught classes for all breed as well and also
trained boxers in conformation, obedience, agility, therapy & specializes
in many types of behavior problems.. Many years of working
with dogs and their owners, really helps to evaluate and
work with every boxerkid that comes into this program, waiting
for the right forever home. She has worked as a grief counselor
with several hundred people over the years that have too
or already have - said goodbye to their beloved pet. For
over 20 years in veterinary medicine, taking this wonderful
experience with her to assist in the recovery and rehabilitation
of these wonderful boxers, as well. Terrie has dedicated
her life in helping the boxers that are without a home,
on their journey to a new family that will provide them
the love and care they deserve. These boxers are released
to this organization for many reasons - military transfer,
family death, moving, illness, divorce, incompatibility
w/other pets - and unsociability due to being left alone,
and untrained by the original owners.
- WA BOXER RESCUE has started a new program that will address
the many behaviors and problems that we face when these
boxers are surrendered to this rescue. And this allows us
to follow a boxer after they are adopted and work directly
with that adopter, as long as necessary in obedience classes
or privately to insure they are acclimated properly and
never have to leave their new home. You always will have
a phone number and email to contact us at any time to answer
questions about your adopted boxer, and to help you through
the years to follow, with boarding, special needs or even
when it is time to say goodbye to your precious boxer friend..
We will be there too, as they leave for the Rainbow Bridge
with grace.
- WA Boxer Rescue has 5 directors on this board and you will
find their emails on the contact page. WE are very proud
to have another wonderful, well known boxer trainer and
behaviorist working in this program to insure we can meet
the needs of our boxers in rescue across the state. Lillian
Sugahara Jesse, owner of BoxerBrains & fellow member
of PNWBC, is located in the Seattle area, and is a representative
for WBR. We are now able to better serve our applicants
for adoption & families that need to surrender their
boxers, respectfully in person. Lillian teaches class twice
a week in Tukwila, WA.. - and works with every boxer in
this rescue as a foster mom, behaviorist and directly with
you in person to answer all your questions before, during & after
adoption. This is a wonderful help with this rescue and
we couldn't do it without Lillian on board! This collaboration

with all your needs, by two professionals, experienced with
boxers for over 25 yrs each.
