TRIGGER WARNING: Graphic injuries in last 2 pictures.

Adopted from City of San Antonio Animal Care Services as a puppy in March of 2023, Cinnamon sadly reappeared at ACS exactly one year later, picked up as a stray with what appeared to be a severe wound consistent with a chemical burn. Cinnamon had to undergo intensive care, receiving daily bandage changes to ensure her wound healed and did not get worse from infection.
Cinnamon attracted the eye of one of our fosters, Tim, who has an affection for brown Shepherd mixes, and he was committed to helping Cinnamon find the perfect forever family that would not let her down. At the end of July, we are so happy to say that Tim helped Cinnamon get what every pet in San Antonio truly deserves, a loving forever home.
As we celebrate in this beautiful story of an incredible dog getting the life she always deserved, we have to thank ACS for starting Cinnamon's path to healing, and her foster Tim for his dedication to ensuring one less sad story through the power of fostering.

Where Are They Meow Update!

Pirate was one of our medical cases that was truly unforgettable. He came to us from our rescue partner, Bexar County Animal Facility where he had undergone amputation surgery for a necrotic back leg. Pirate had quite the healing journey, but he showed us resilience, unending love, and a little bit of sass that Siamese kitties are so well known for.
Pirate’s sad but moving backstory attracted the attention of Olivia, and it was love at first sight. Within minutes of meeting, Pirate was a lap cat.
Now renamed Ginkgo, after the tree famed for having strength and healing properties, this kitty is living his best life all because of Olivia. We adore seeing our former fosters, living the life they always should have had, all thanks to our growing community who support the Adopt, Don’t Shop Movement.

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.
