From Paralysis to Playtime! Resilient Velvet Finds Her Forever Home 🎉

Meet Velvet, a spirited dog who has overcome incredible odds! 💖 Found as a stray and paralyzed, Velvet arrived at Footbridge Foundation with a long road ahead.

But this amazing pup never gave up! 💪 Through hard work, determination, and the incredible care of her foster mom, Velvet went from paralysis to walks around the neighborhood. 🐾

This inspiring journey wouldn't have been possible without the generosity of the San Antonio FC and their captain, Mitch Taintor. Their sponsorship allowed Velvet to be part of our Lonely Hearts Club, covering Velvet's adoption fee, paving the way for her to find her forever home... with her loving foster mom! We love a heart-warming story of a foster fail! 🐶 💖

Velvet's story is a testament to the power of compassion and the importance of second chances. If you want to continue following Velvet and her incredibly journey, you can follow her on Instagram where she has her own account:

Bridge to a New Life

After walking countless foster dogs across the footbridge in her neighborhood, it struck Wendy Black one day that the bridge was becoming quite symbolic. It seemed that once the

dogs got the hang of their claws touching the metal surface, it was about the same time they were forgetting their past and moving full force into their future. A new life, one with walks along the San Antonio river, veterinary care, nutritious meals and treats that come without fail each and every day. Noticing all the good coming out of this, in 2017 an application was made for a 501c3 and Footbridge Foundation was born.

The daunting statistics of San Antonio’s animal problem has kept Footbridge busy and passionate to save more lives. Many friends are involved with Footbridge now and in helping hundreds of kittens, cats, puppies and dogs we see that there is an endless need.

Donations are used to help strays and fosters with items such as low cost spay/neuter surgery, x-rays, dental care, emergency care, surgeries for amputation, broken bones, deformities, hospice care, eye care, heart worm/lyme disease test for dogs, treatment for parasitic diseases, FIV/FeLV testing for adoptable cats, TNR trapper fees, dewormer & vaccinations, monthly flea & heart worm prevention, microchips, intake fees, transport costs, pet food, kitty litter, collars, tags, cones, leashes, harnesses, training treats, bowls, beds, crates, carriers, traps, puppy pads, formula, bottles, blankets, towels, cleaning supplies and more.
