🚨Help us find Begonia!

Begonia is a female, black lab mix wearing a yellow collar.

Begonia got spooked and bolted away from her foster home a few days ago. 💔 She’s been running scared ever since and has crossed busy South Lamar 3x now!😭

She’s in complete flight mode and we need to find her.

We need everyone in this area to be hyper-vigilant and alert us if you spot her! 👀

It is VITAL that you do NOT CHASE her and please help us get the word out right away!

🏡Let’s get her home safe!🙏

🚨 Two URGENT holiday temp foster needs. 🚨

🎄We need a Christmas miracle!

Boo + Sully: this adorable duo needs a place to crash Dec 23-30th. (If you’re open to long term fostering, even better!)

✅They love everyone!
✅ do well with easygoing dog social dogs
✅ would be fine with cats and kids!
✅ Crate trained, potty trained, and just like to be around you. 🫶

Smokey: he needs somewhere to spend just two nights— Dec 21st-Dec 23rd. He has an amazing foster home to return to but his foster mom had to leave for a family emergency out of state and his current boarding is booked solid for the holiday 😭

✅ He’s very sweet
✅ loves toys
✅ crate trained and potty trained
✅ strongly prefers women
✅ would be best as only pup or kept separate since it’s such a short period of time!

🙏 If you can support with either of these urgent holiday foster needs, please email: [email protected]

We have just days to figure this out! 😩 If you can’t foster at this time, please SHARE! 🔄

When it seems like the rest of the world says no, we say yes. 🤝

From lost pet recovery to street dog rescue and rehabilitation, our team takes calls every hour of the day and night. We trap and rescue pups at 2am, on holidays, and in all weather.

Our fully volunteer team devote so much of their time and energy to TRAPRS to help support the Austin animal community.

We can’t do this hardwork without our community. We can’t say YES to cases without your YES to us. 🙏

These are just a few of our cases and the dogs that we’ve saved over the last few months. 🐾

Please support our team this 💙Giving Tuesday💙. There are no days off and we are here for the long haul.

💔Abandoned and nowhere to go.

🚨 We need an urgent foster for this beautiful floofy, friendly boy.🚨

He was running on a busy highway and, by some stroke of magic, happened to run into a team member. She rescued him and thought surely he must be owned and loved.

But sadly, the opposite. We quickly learned where he lived and that his “family” moved out a month ago, took one of their dogs and left him behind. 💔

He has been roaming ever since with a torn ribbon tied to his collar from their failed attempt of leaving him tethered alone in the yard. 😠

What we know:
✅ Male
✅ Young, under 2
✅ Fine in a crate
✅ comfortable with a leash
✅ ignores other dogs (so far no formal intros but no reaction to sight and barking)
✅ happy boy that just wants to be your friend!

🚨Help us find Stinker!

Stinker is a female, chihuahua wearing a collar.

Stinker’s mom died suddenly last week. 💔 While her caretaker was making arrangements at the home, Stinker went into the backyard and escaped through the fence and ran away. 😭

Her mom’s caretaker loves her so much and she has a forever home with her.💙

She’s in complete flight mode and we need to find her.

We need everyone in this area to be hyper-vigilant and alert us if you spot her! 👀

It is VITAL that you do NOT CHASE her and please help us get the word out right away!

🏡Let’s get her home safe!🙏

If you spot her:
🚫 Do NOT call for

📍 Onion Creek | Southeast Austin TX 78747
🚨Help us find Disco!

Disco is a 13 y/o male, Cockapoo with ONE EYE & partially deaf. He is wearing a collar with tags and although a Cockapoo, he’s tall and lanky.

Disco was being watched by a sitter while his family was away for work. As serendipity would have it, his parents were on their work site with one of our directors so our team was notified quickly to get to the area.

Although he is 13, he’s quick! Don’t let his age fool you.

He is likely terrified and out of sorts. Please do not attempt to engage with him at all & share that sentiment with everyone you know. 🙏

We need everyone in this area to be hyper-vigilant and alert us if you spot him! 👀

It is VITAL that you do NOT CHASE him and please help us get the word out right away!

Just a mini snapshot of our week in rescue. 📸

For this we’re sharing a little about where your donations are going and where are our time and energy have been spent over the last few days!

From puppies with the wildest level of worms you’ve ever seen, (left out the photo but maybe we should share that too 🙈), from pleading for fosters and training sessions to medical emergencies and searching for lost pups, there hasn’t been a dull moment. 😅

• 1-5 -> Daisy & our “D” litter of wormy babies. 🥹
• 6 -> Boo and Sully who we have been begging for a foster for DAILY & still have no one for them. 💔
• 7-8-> Chai back in the ER & home again in his surgery suit🚑
• 9-10 -> from the tracking dog team to flyers and cameras, we’re still 🔎 for Meeko
• 11 -> Sable tongue out relaxing like nothing happened after she ate something she shouldn’t and wound up at the vet
• 12 -> Adoptable STUNNING Loki out for a jaunt with the training team
• 13 -> Mr. Glenn Parker at discharge from the hospital 🤵

… and this isn’t even half of our week 😬😬

Help us keep saving them:

🥹 We love a good happy ending! While our team supports the stray and lost pet population, we frequently get requests for support for owned pets too.

We wish we could help them all, but sometimes with rescue partner friends it’s made possible.

Language barriers, finance barriers and transportation issues can make pet ownership so challenging in ways many people don’t often think about.

Read below about our team member’s recent efforts to partner with Austin Pets Alive!’s P.A.S.S. program to help save Jackson and keep him with his loving family.

🚨Help us find Meeko!

Meeko is a male, grey and white terrier mix.

Meeko is a new foster dog and had just arrived at his foster home and escaped the same day.

He is terrified of humans and can not be touched yet. 😭
He will not come to anyone. Please do not attempt to engage with him at all & share that sentiment with everyone you know. 🙏

We need everyone in this area to be hyper-vigilant and alert us if you spot him! 👀

It is VITAL that you do NOT CHASE him and please help us get the word out right away!

🚨SOS🚨

FOSTER NEEDED - Austin, TX📍

These poor babies have been living under cars at an abandoned home. 😩 They are emaciated and have swollen bellies, likely full of parasites but it could be worse. We won’t know anything else until we can get them medical attention. 😭

These two are terrified and stuck together like glue.

We need a safe, loving foster home in order to rescue them.🙏

🙏 Can you help?!
