Sweet Beautiful DORY is settling in so nicely into her foster home and loves ALL her family... human, canine and feline too. 😻

A few insights from the foster about Dory...
• Wonderful with our girls!! First night she immediately wanted to curl up with our daughter. She was so excited she knocked over the food bowl.
• She really likes her monkey stuffed animal.
• She is an active girl and loves to run outside. She is potty trained and hasn't had any accidents.
• She really loves belly rubs and wants to sit in your lap. She will wrap her paws around your arm almost like a hug.
• Whoever gets this baby girl is going to be so blessed!

Well, we know that Dory is blessed with such a wonderful loving family that is bridging her to the July Transport, and a wonderful future in Wisconsin. Thank you for being her hero when she needed one the most.

GOOD NEWS TUESDAY - Part B... B for BUBBLES! Her Minnesota Foster Mom shared these photos with us along with a few things her new adoptive family had to share. Words cannot adequately express how thoroughly pleased and amazed we are to hear things like "She's just too perfect" and "She's just the best" and "She fits perfectly."

Rescue is hard sometimes, the things we see and hear, and the obstacles we need to overcome to be able to get all these lives on transport every month. Getting updates like these brings an instant smile to our face and a warmth that radiates out from our hearts. It's a wonderful feeling. So we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for these updates... they truly help keep us going through the tough times.

If you've adopted one of our Texas pups or cats and would like to share an update, feel free to email us some photos and how things are going... to [email protected] ❤️ We, and our foster homes, will always be grateful to see them. 😊

GOOD NEWS TUESDAY - Part 1... we bring the happiest news from our little guy ROOK's Minnesota Foster Mom through our partner rescue The Bond Between: "My dad decided that he cannot live without him! Both my dad and Rook are so lucky!"

We are ecstatic that "Rookie" will be staying in the extended family. One of the girls in the foster home has fallen in love with him, and has even taken a lead role in his basic commands training. They shared a video with us and she was doing such an amazing job. It's so heartwarming to see the next generation of rescuers in action. Kudos to Foster Mom & Dad for instilling these values in your kids, and nurturing their loving compassionate hearts.

Rook will no doubt be in good hands and have so much love surround him daily. 💜 That's our wish for all the Texas souls we send north every month.

Stay tuned for Part 2 later today... an update on Rook's sister Bubbles 😉😃

Please help us welcome TINSEL to the Passport For Paws Family. As you can see, she was quite excited on her Freedom Ride out of the shelter yesterday! She was on the Urgent list at City of Arlington Animal Services because not only was she one of their longest resident dogs, she is sadly also heartworm positive.

Second Chance Animal Rescue said they would love to help her, so now she's in her Texas foster home and will undergo heartworm treatment here in Texas before heading north to Minnesota on a future transport once she's cleared for travel.

Be sure to check the comments below to see a couple of her shelter photos. What a unique and beautiful pup! Hard to believe no one wanted to adopt her here. But rest assured, she will find the most amazing home in Minnesota, to be loved and cherished the rest of her days.

BROCK is having the time of his life with his Foster Mom. When he's not splooting on the cool tile floor at home, or going nuts through the window over the squirrels in the backyard, he's going on fun adventures out and about town! We absolutely love these photos! 🤩

We cannot thank our foster homes enough for not only giving these precious souls a safe place to await their transport date... but also for the tremendous amount of love and care you give them. In your hands they are Living Their Best Lives! We are so grateful for each and every one of you.

HAPPY SUNDAY FUNDAY! Get out there and have a fun adventure today! 🌞

It's official... JUNE is FOSTER A PET MONTH in Texas. Even though we have just a couple days left in June, we invite you to celebrate with us going into July by fostering a pet in need.

We'll soon be posting more pups in need of fosters until our July 19th Transport, and they'll need a place to go as soon as we get the rescue tags. So follow our Passport For Paws Fosters Needed page and see who you can help. We post there as needs arise.

If you're not yet a part of our Foster Team, please submit a foster application today! A link to the application will be in the Comments section.

So please join us, and be a part of our mission of saving Texas pets in need and giving them second chances in Minnesota and Wisconsin! We provide any supplies you need, and rescue covers all the pet's medical vetting needs.

Very happy to share this FREEDOM RIDE for TYSON & CHOMPERS. This cute little senior duo was networked by the City of Mesquite Animal Shelter after their owner reached out for help. Due to serious medical issues, they found themselves unable to properly care for the pups any longer. The shelter shared them and tried to secure rescue prior to their surrender date appointment, but sadly no one stepped up. Possibly a case of everyone thinking that surely someone else would help two cute little dogs. Well, the surrender appointment came, and into the shelter they went.

We're happy that our rescue partner Second Chance Animal Rescue was ready to help give them both a future. Thank you for your partnership and for caring so much about Texas pets in need. ❤️❤️

The ways of Dog are not the ways of Man... but who are we to judge! 🤷🏼‍♀️🤭 We are just happy that the greetings went well with the other pups in his foster home and he is now in a safe loving environment!

Please welcome BONBON (the little black and white pupper) to the Passport For Paws Family! He was rescued from the City of Arlington Animal Services by our friends with Second Chance Animal Rescue.

The shelter was seeking Rescue placement for this little guy because he has a suspicious mass on his toe with a wound on top, and they wanted to make sure he would get the medical attention & care he needed before being adopted. Next week he'll get a dental to clean his teeth, have his infected ears packed, and get a biopsy done on that soft mass. Let's hope for good results. 🙏 We'll keep you posted, but send him good thoughts in the meantime.

It's FRIYAY and we've got several FREEDOM RIDEs to celebrate and share with you. The first is DORY who was quite happy to finally get out of Corsicana Animal Shelter and to her foster home tonight. Look at that adorable smile on the drive home! 🤩 Foster reports that "she is so very sweet" and is settling in nicely.

We're sure she's going to have a really great sleep tonight, in the peace and quiet of a home. Thank You Foster Family for giving her this opportunity!

And a special Shout Out to Deana with Friends of Rescue Animals who happened to be down in Corsicana helping with spay/neuter efforts and helped out with this transport! Thanks so much for the support tonight, and for all the good you are doing overall!

And of course Thank You Circle Of Souls Animal Rescue for tagging this sweetheart. She'll be going up on transport in July, and will be adoptable in Wisconsin. 💚

Just look at this cute pair! Don't you just want to bring them into your home and love on them until July 19 Transport? They lost their home after 10 years together. We're looking for a Foster Home for them together, for just 3 weeks to bridge them to their second chance in Minnesota.

Please help us get them out tomorrow if possible so they don't need to spend another night in the shelter. 🙏

Update: Covered. Thank You Foster Home! ❤️
