Y’all, if all goes well, a retired woman is flying in from Nebraska to adopt Destiny tomorrow. (Friday)

Destiny loves everyone…. And I mean this. Her tail never stops wagging and she is one of those dogs that is grateful for every act of kindness.

You see, she lived the first part of her life without it. She is from a neglectful backyard breeder that should have been arrested for animal cruelty.

But after years of neglect, she did not let him ruin her or who she is. She hasn’t looked back and is now ready to move up in the world with a home of her own. She will have a couple of fur siblings (they are gentle) and even a little kitty to play with.

My heart hurts already but it is what is best for her. I am not home much and she prefers someone who is…. And she deserves that.

I will try to do a Live feed for the handoff if I am able. 😭❤️😭❤️

What a difference ❤️

I won’t ever forget seeing this momma dog at he Weslaco Animal Care Services shelter. She looked defeated.

Seeing her now, she looks happy and well loved. She looked a little worried when I handed her to her new family in FL this past weekend But she looks fine now!

Her family reports she is working her magic with the kids. They absolutely love her and have named her Chilli.

Congrats on this upgrade sweet girl. We are so happy for you ❤️

I’m at the airport on my way home from the FL event.

My heart hurt seeing this dog on the Weslaco Animal Care Services page. So I started networking.

Why and how does a dog get in this condition? He is old and appears to have had a life full of neglect. 😭😭😭

I reached out to a friend in the Rio Grande Valley and she agreed to pick him up and hold him for us until I can get down there.

Look at the growths on him and his eyes 😭😭😭😭. My heart never gets used to this.

Huge thank you to everyone who supports our mission and trusts us with your donations. It’s because of YOU we are able to help dogs like this.

Thank you!

Tracy

This adoption makes me smile, laugh and cry at the same time.

For anyone worried about Skittles after she got away from us at the event, she is now in a harness and home where she belongs. With MOOSE… a TPR alumni.

Her new name is Little Moo and we are told these two act like they have known each other their whole lives.

MOOSE has no idea that she is going to run him and rule the roost! This little girl is 1/4 his size but trust me…. She’s got this! Let the good times roll! She is a little powerhouse and likes to rumble.

It was so good to see MOOSE. He came right up to me and gave me a kiss! 😭❤️😭❤️😭

Tippy got adopted too!

This is why we do what we do!

This is her second adopter. There was absolutely nothing wrong with her first adopter but Tippy played too rough with their little dog so she came back to the rescue.

She has a little gangster in her just like I do! A girl after my own heart Love it 🥰

Tippy is the little dog from Dallas Street in Mission TX that was abandoned by her family and left to fend for herself. She lived outside among all kinds of dogs which were all bigger than her.

She is street smart and one tough cookie!

Her street life living outside is behind her now and she will live inside a home with a loving dad.

The way it should be!

Congrats to the Tipster! We will miss you around here!

Thank you to the adoption team for always going above and beyond for our dogs!

We have some updates coming for you!

This is Linus and Lucy. Look at them! They have a pool❤️

These two dogs really beat all the odds. We found them in the La Joya shelter in Deep South Texas.

They recovered from Distemper which left little Linus with a twitch in his back leg. But that doesnt hold him back! Both pups live life to the fullest and nothing stops them. They were the best guests at the Tracy’s Paws Ranch!

We normally do not allow sibling adoptions but made an exception because of the glowing references for this family, the dogs temperament and their medical history.

These two siblings are in good hands and finally home. What a journey they have had!

This is definitely a life upgrade!

We look forward to the updates and we are all so happy for them!

Alfonso has moved up in life. ❤️

He found himself down on his luck and stuck in the Weslaco, TX animal shelter. No one came looking for him. Their loss!

Thankfully, one of my favorite ACO’s called me and told me what a wonderful dog he was and asked if we would accept him into our program? His name is Alfonso A and he works at Weslaco Animal Care Services.

How could we say no? Alfonso was right! He’s a great dog.

We found him a great home with a little boy he seemed to pick out for himself at our adoption event!!!! Chagas and all, this family adopted him and drove from Miami to St Petersburg to pick him up.

He is now a beach dog who gets to go boating. He is living his best life …. And won’t look back.

THE FONZ has it made!

In our cover photo we are highlighting Easton!

Easton was born under a trailer in deep South Texas, to a stray mom named Izzie!

He was only 3 weeks old.

He was adopted by a wonderful couple in Florida, who have entered him into Fast Cat Competiton!

He was my personal foster, and I am so proud of him!
I love my big brown Texas dogs!

Love you Easton!

Dexter wants everyone to know his mom Tracie is home safely in Michigan.

He is so proud of her. She continues to help Tracy’s Paws because she knows the need is so great in the area he is from.

Dexter hopes one day we can change the animal world by bringing education and resources to the shelters here in TX.

We CAN change the animal world. One rescue dog, one person, one child at a time❤️

Thank you Tracie! We appreciate you. Tell Dexter we are forever grateful for him letting you come help us.
