My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Tebow and his father, Hemi, came to BARC after being abandoned and left without food for three weeks. Needless to say, their former owner is being charged with animal cruelty. Click Here to see a news story about what investigators said was one of the worse cases of animal cruelty they had ever seen. Be warned, the video is not for the faint of heart.


These dogs came from Alabama, a state in which BARC usually doesn't operate, but animal control and law enforcement were determined to get them into a rescue program and we responded due to the urgency of the situation and the desire to work together with law enforcement to see a maximum sentence enforced.


Tebow is a beautiful, three year old flashy fawn Boxer who has an excellent temperament despite the extreme neglect he has suffered.Tebow has a fairly lengthy medical rehabilitation before he will be available for adoption. In addition to being still being underweight (Tebow is pictured here after four weeks of good nutrition), he is currently being treated for hookworms and will also have to go through heartworm treatment and be neutered before he is ready for adoption. Tebow loves attention and he gets along with the male and female Boxers in his foster home. He is being fostered by Pat, John, Sassy & Mick in Lake City.


The medical rehabilitation of Tebow and his father, Hemi, will be very expensive. We appreciate any and all donations for their care.
