Areas Boxer/Schnauzer Rescue of the Ozarks serves
Boxer/Schnauzer Rescue of the Ozarks is a breed specific rescue assisting boxers and all sizes of schnauzers in Missouri. We are state licensed, 501 (3)c and state nonprofit. For the most current list of our available dogs please visit www.bsro.org We function first as a support system to shelters, animal controls and humane societies taking our breeds at their request to make room for more animals. All of our boxers and schnauzers are spayed/neutered prior to placement (no exceptions), given rabies, distemper/parvo, bordetella, flu, and lepto vaccines, micrchipped, placed on heartworm, flea and tick prevention, groomed, teeth cleaned if needed, house trained, crated trained and given some basic obedience. Other medical issues will be addressed if needed. Our dogs live strictly in private homes so that they learn to be part of a family. Adopting from us is not just getting a great new member of the family but also getting a great new big group of friends.
We are members of the American Boxer Rescue Association, Midwest Boxer Rescues, recommended by the American Miniature Schnauzer Club and work with the Standard Schnauzer Club of America.
Boxer/Schnauzer Rescue of the Ozarks's adoption process
Additional adoption info
The first step is to fill out an application. For a boxer you need to visit www.midwestboxerrescues.com and for schnauzers you need to email us. Once the application is received, we will contact you to arrange a home visit. No visits, unless at a meet-n-greet, will be allowed with a dog until the application is received and a home visit is done. This is to protect the privacy and security of our foster homes. During the home visit, we will sit down with you and the members of your family to see what you are looking for and wanting in a dog so we can best match you with one in our program that fits this criteria. After this is done, arrangements will be made with you and the foster home to visit the dog in the foster home so you can see the true comfortable personality of the dog.
We can only do placements where we have volunteers to do home visits. We cover most of Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska and Iowa.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
