About These Pages

Who and Why

The Boxer CUR pages are maintained by Fred and Kathy Isler.   Kathy created the Boxer CUR pages because she saw the need for a public listing of Boxer CUR volunteers.  She hoped that this roster could be used to help organize CUR runs, and so far families from all over the United States and Canada are listed here as Boxer CUR volunteers.

Fred took Kathy's concept and created the database and programming to make Boxer CUR a "self service" site.

The Boxer CUR pages are built around a MySQL database:

• Volunteers may create, update, and delete their own records
• Database searches enable a CUR run organizer to retrieve organized pages of volunteer information based on:
  • Location -- region, state/province, city
  • Driving distance -- how far a volunteer can drive
  • Availability -- days of the week volunteers can drive
  • Foster-ability -- whether or not volunteers can also provide a temporary foster home for boxers
