Welcome!
We are so excited to have you here. Whether you came to see about adopting a forever friend, making a donation, seeing how you can volunteer your time to help or you want some adorable boston swag, you came to the right place!




Since we are a 501c3 rescue, all donations made to STBTR are tax deductible.

Our donors are vital to STBTR.  Some people just don’t have the ability to foster, a reliable vehicle to help with transport, or simply don’t have the time to help any other way than financially.  We frequently have fundraisers when we have particularly heavy vetting needs.

Amazon Wishlist:

We maintain a wish list on Amazon of supplies that we frequently use, and are sometimes pleasantly surprised with boxes that are delivered from Amazon.

Meet Diego: A charming 3-year-old brindle Boston Terrier weighing 25lbs, renowned for his sweet nature and affectionate demeanor. He’s flourishing in a foster home located in Georgetown, Texas. Diego is friendly, enjoys the company of humans and similarly sized dogs, but he’s not fond of cats. He makes for an excellent walking buddy, although he tends to keep a watchful eye on other canines. His interactions with children are yet to be observed, as he has not been around them. When you come home, be ready for an enthusiastic greeting, as he loves to jump up to say hello. In terms of health, Diego is in excellent condition, with all veterinary care, neutering, vaccinations up to date, and a recent completion of heartworm treatment in September 2024. To consider making Diego a part of your family, please visit stbtr.org for more information on the adoption process. He is being fostered in ATX area. stbtr.org/ #adoptdontshop #adoptaboston #rescuedogsofinstagram #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #rescdogsoftexas #southtexasbostonterrierrescue #bostonterriersofinstagram ...

At least 80% of our dogs are from shelters.

Did you know roughly 6.5 million animals enter animal shelters each year, according to ASPCA? If you’re looking to welcome a furry friend into your family, consider your local animal shelter! ❤️

Did you adopt your pet from a shelter? We’d love to see a picture of them in the comments!

We adopted our sweet Molly from the Boston Terrier Rescue of Greater Houston. She was six years old when she became a part of our family. This past weekend would have been 7 years of loving on her, but we just recently lost her at the age of 13. We are heartbroken without our sweet girl but hope someday to heal enough to open our hearts to another Boston. ❤️ Look how beautiful…..she was just perfect.

We adopted Cosmo from a local rescue. He’s the best.

Miss Boots. Your time with STBTR has been very special. You came to us with 2 baby boys in tow. We've had the privilege to help nourish you back to health and find your babies the perfect home. Now it's your turn. You have shown Mr. And Mrs. Garfield that you would like to be queen of your own castle and your happy ending has just begun. Congratulations Boots and the Garfield's on your adoption from STBTR. ... See MoreSee Less

Please welcome Jewel to our rescue. Jewel was found on the streets and being attacked by other dogs. Probably because she was in heat, and she was fighting for her life. She has numerous scars on her body, and you can tell she’s been a momma a lot of times. She cowers even to humans, but once she knows you aren’t going to hurt her, she inches back over for more love. It’s gonna take awhile for this one to get to the point she can just be a dog - erasing the past is harder for some than others. But STBTR is in it for that goal! We believe every dog is worthy of humane treatment, and that she’s gonna be a real “jewel” when she’s made that transformation in rescue. She’s definitely got some Frenchie/Boston genes going on but at this point that’s all we know. She sees our famous Bay City Vet And Equine Hospital tomorrow for exam, bloodwork, vaccines and whatever she requires. Once deemed physically ready for spay, she will be scheduled and recuperate while she’s just learning to be a dog. Stay tuned for more details to follow on Jewel. ... See MoreSee Less

Awe sweet Jewel. I can’t wait to learn the rest of her story as she transforms.

Thank you. So happy she was rescued!

I see a Boston Terrier body in there. Sweet girl. I'm so thrilled she's been saved. Thank you. 😇
