Today, we're sending an especially big 'thank you' to our Vetting Coordinator Tami! Tami has been instrumental to the rescue for years and, on top of organizing all of our pups' medical information, scheduling appointments, and coordinating adoptions, fosters pups with her husband, Shelby.

Tami's dedication, compassion, and hard work make such a profound difference in the lives of our rescue pups. We are so fortunate to have someone as committed and caring as Tami on our team. Thank you Tami and Shelby for continuing to open your home to rescue pups and for all that you have done this year! 🩵

Meet Denver! 🐾 Denver is a ~5 year old shar pei/labrador mix with a very sweet soul. Denver loves kids and adults, but is looking for a home where there are no cats and he can be a solo dog.

Denver's past includes years of physical and emotionally hurt, none of which is his fault. Denver is in need of a compassionate human(s) with patience that would be willing to spend time with him. He walks well on a leash and is house trained. He does well in his kennel and would do fine alone in a cozy home.

November 15th goes out to our training partner Black Onyx Dog Training! Kat, owner of Black Onyx, is truly exceptional at what she does, blending deep expertise with a genuine passion for helping dogs and their owners thrive.

Her dedication to empowering other dog owners and our new adopters with the knowledge and confidence to continue the training journey has made her an exceptional resource for the rescue this past year. She has consistently gone above and beyond to support the rescue and is always willing to lend a hand.

Thank you Kat! 🩵

Another day means another day of 'thanks' and we're sending a special 'thank you' to Melissa, our Cat Adoption Coordinator! 🩵 Melissa not only coordinates our cat adoptions, but she also works with our surrendering and adoption teams, lending a hand whenever extra support is needed.

Melissa continues to foster pups and cats despite all of her other obligations, which has been a huge asset to the PJ's team this last year. We not only want to extend a heartfelt 'thank-you' to Melissa, but Melissa's family as well. We are very thankful to have her and her crew be a part of the PJ's Rescue family. Thank you! 🩵

Got mail? 📬 Our mailman can help with that. 😉 Meet Mailman, an energetic ~6 month old american staffordshire terrier mix. He's a happy guy who loves adventures. He enjoys going for walks, hikes, and running around in his foster's backyard.

Mailman is a smart guy and has excellent recall. He settles nicely in his kennel during the day and at night he enjoys snuggling. Mailman is looking for an active home with a human(s) that will take him exploring and enjoy plenty of snuggles after.

A special thank-you shoutout for November 12th & 13th goes to our Foster Coordinator, Rachel and her partner, Mitchell! 🎉

Rachel has been a vital force in our rescue efforts this past year, juggling her busy schedule as a nurse with countless volunteer hours dedicated to rescue work. We’re incredibly grateful for her commitment and hard work!

Although Mitchell is a recent addition to our rescue family, he has dove in head first and continues to be an asset to the PJ's family, volunteering his free time as well. We're extremely thankful for the many hours of volunteering that this duo give to the rescue each week. We couldn't do it without you! 🩵

🆘We are urgently seeking foster or foster-to-adopt homes for two dogs at risk of euthanasia due to overcrowding in a rural Missouri pound, with limited resources. A partner in rescue reached out for our help, as they are at full capacity, and these dogs need immediate placement to survive.

We’re incredibly grateful to the fosters who stepped up for two other recently abandoned dogs, and now we’re calling on anyone who can help save these additional lives. If you can foster or are interested in fostering to adopt, please contact us via DM right away—your support truly makes a life-or-death difference🐾🤍

Introducing Pebbles, a 1 year old American Pitbull/Staffordshire Terrier mix. She has been participating in training with Black Onyx Dog Training to focus on her state of mind and mouthy-ness. She has come a long way in learning that she doesn’t have to communicate with her mouth (never any aggression intention, but more like 10week old puppy putting mouth on everything). Although she she has made a lot of progress, we think it’s important she goes to a home without kids, or kids 15 and older. She will need consistency in her new home with her training to ensure she is her best self long term! Pebbles has done okay with other dogs, but we do not recommend cats. She is obsessed with toys and is happy to keep herself occupied by playing with them!
Help us find this beautiful girl her forever home💕🐾

Mama Jenna is looking for her furever home!

This sweet gal is a German Shepherd mix and is approximately 2 to 3 years old. She has been spending time in training with Black Onyx Dog Training to help build her confidence and work on her crate manners. She has also learned how to walk politely on a leash and knows the place command. Mama really loves her person and so it’s important that independence is instilled at her new home as not to make her anxiety worse. This means using her place command throughout the day and also making sure she is sleeping in her kennel and in her kennel when you leave the house. Mama is potty trained, does well with other dogs, but unsure about cats. She is a lover and super sweet! Her training is complete 11/15 and will then be ready to go to her forever home🐾❤️

Meet Teddy! 🧸 He's an adorable 4-6 month old pit bull terrier/chocolate lab mix. Teddy loves going on walks and does well on a leash. He's an active guy that enjoys playing with his foster sister outside, but will need an owner who is ready to have many fun adventures. He's still trying to understand the game of fetch and isn't super interested in open water just yet.

Teddy is house-trained and understands "sit" and is working on other commands. He currently sleeps in his kennel at night as he's working on his kennel training, but is happy to sleep outside of his kennel if he's able. He's a great snuggler and is happy to show his affection for everyone around him.

Teddy is currently in a home without cats, but hasn't had any negative interactions with other dogs or people. 🩵 Find more info at www.pjsrescue.com/adoption

It's time for another November "thanks" update! We're dedicating November 2nd-5th (four days) to an incredible organization abbreviated by four letters - M.A.C.C. The Minneapolis Animal Care & Control team has been phenomenal to work with in 2024 and truly deserves the spotlight!

The folks at MACC go above and beyond the call of rescue. From consistent communication to building genuine bonds with the animals they work with, the volunteers at MACC are great humans who truly care about rescuing animals.

We're proud to be a rescue partner and look forward to another year of collaboration with Minneapolis Animal Care & Control in 2025! 🩵

About PJ’s Rescue

PJ's Rescue is a non-profit organization that rescues abandoned, neglected, injured, and stray dogs from euthanasia in Texas shelters, where the homeless population for dogs is overwhelming and thousands of dogs are subject to euthanasia. Dogs are fostered and cared for by volunteers and then set up for adoption into new forever families in Texas or Minnesota.

We are able to save dogs from death greatly in part to our volunteers and generous donations. Uniting new families with dogs deserving of a second chance is not only a blessing to the dog, but to all those involved in the process!
