We are committed to ending the overpopulation, abuse, and neglect of dogs and cats in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. As an all-volunteer, no-kill 501(c)(3) organization, our commitment extends beyond rescue and adoption—we are devoted to every animal we save for the rest of its life. Our mission is to ensure each adoptable dog and cat finds a permanent, loving home.
Our needs include volunteers, supplies, boarding partners, and marketing support. Volunteers play a vital role in animal care, transportation, administrative tasks, and event coordination. Essential supplies such as food, bedding, medical items, and enrichment materials help ensure the well-being of the animals in our care. Boarding partners provide temporary housing for pets when foster homes are unavailable. Marketing support, including outreach and promotional efforts, helps increase visibility, drive adoptions, and secure additional resources. These ongoing needs are critical to sustaining our operations and fulfilling our mission.
Your support is essential to our mission. As an all-volunteer organization, we ensure that every dollar goes directly to medical care, food, shelter, or training for pets in crisis. We operate with efficiency and effectiveness, maximizing every donation to help adoptable pets find loving homes. Your contributions make a direct impact, allowing us to continue providing the critical care these animals need.
