How to Help
Fostering Saves Lives. Volunteering saves lives. Donating saves lives. Rescues rely on the help of volunteers to save each and every dog. Before a dog is tagged for rescue off the euthanasia list, a foster home must be secured. And then transport must be found…often times dogs are moved many, many miles to their foster home. Dogs often arrive scared and sometimes under socialized….foster homes provide the patient and tender landing pad they need while they decompress from the stress of the shelter and come out of their shell. Dogs will need socialization and TLC to get them ready for adoption. All dogs are treated at the vet for any medical conditions and spay/neutered. When they are ready to find their family, rescues have adoption coordinators that process applications and interview potential adopters. It's truly a village effort to get one dog adopted out! Visit your local animal shelter to see how you can help!

Bailey
We received a video of a dog in MX that was living on a chain.....and once a day the owner would come out and hit him with a pipe. Our rescue team sprung into action...and today Bailey has been treated for heartworms, and is living a wonderful life outside of Austin. He has lots of furry friends and two children who love him. And, He hugs everyone that he meets! #lovewins
River
We saw this sweet boy's face and knew he was a great dog. His foster family in Austin adopted him and River is an exuberant and happy fella...and is a wonderful companion to all the foster dogs that visit his home until they are adopted.
Violet
We saw Violet's video on FB...she was laying next to the road and covered in flies... and had been suffering for days after being hit by a car. Our local rescue partner helped get her to a surgeon where we had her hip and mouth repaired. Violet is in Austin now and ready to find her forever family! She is confident, loving and happy!
