Celebrating 20 years of service AND over 5500 dogs saved in 2025

In November 2005 MidAmerica Boston Terrier Rescue officially opened their doors as a 501c3 non-profit organization taking in bostons and boston mixes that needed to be rehomed. Our services spread across only four states at the time but very quickly expanded across 13 states as our foster homes and volunteer base grew. We remain a foster based rehoming program and added a Palliative Care program in 2011.
 

The concept and start-up of MABTR may have been the initiative of one person however a family was immediately created with individuals that had a common mission resulting in the success that MABTR is today.

​

From start of existence to Oct 31, 2025 we have taken in over 5,564 Bostons and Boston mixes. We have rehomed the majority of them. Over the years over 100 dogs have entered our Palliative Care program.

​

MABTR is very blessed with all the support they have received over the years from foster parents, donors, transporters, vet clinic discounts/services, and volunteers. We thank you for your past, present, and future support. No matter how big or small the donation, the frequency of volunteer hours, or just verbal support know you have played a role in helping MABTR make a positive change in the lives of so many rescued Boston Terriers.

​

We will always strive to run the best organization in order to help as many bostons that come our way no matter age, gender, or health.We pride ourselves on our response time, professional and open communication, full disclosure policy, all boston lives matter philosophy, and prioritizing our efforts to save as many bostons from puppy mills as possible.

​

In celebration of this milestone MABTR we would love for you to purchase and wear our 20 year anniversary shirt in support of our achievements. You can purchase the t-shirt along with many other great MABTR items at our Etsy shop here.

​

Because of your support, MidAmerica Boston Terrier Rescue has an exciting and successful future ahead of them.  On behalf of all rescued animals THANK YOU.
