Why we do what we do…

Last December we received a message about a dog who had been tied to a pole and abandoned for at least 2 days. The dog was scared, smelled awful, and was labeled as “aggressive” by a man who lived in the apartments nearby. We sat down and waited for him to be less weary of us…but never expected that just 15 minutes later, he would bury his head in our volunteer's arm and sit in her lap. After that, they were besties 👩🏻🥰🐶

We named this big, goofy golden doodle Buddy because he was so full of unbridled joy and energy, much like Buddy the Elf! After a good bath, full groom, vet visits, and plenty of training, he was in much better shape than when we found him. He went to a fantastic foster home that eventually decided to adopt him, so this year Buddy is living his best life and spending Christmas with his forever family ❤️

As you celebrate the holidays, please consider making a donation to help us save the lives of Houston’s stray and unwanted pets 🙏🏽

Happy tails — we are so happy to share that Brian has found his forever home, just in time for the holidays! We have no doubt this active family is the perfect fit for Brian and know he will be so very loved by them ❤️

We also want to give a big shout out to Linda, who had never fostered before. She did a great job of keeping him safe, taking him to vet appointments, and showing him love while he was in her care. Thank you so much, Linda!

Are you looking for a sweet dog who already knows his manners, is housetrained, and walks well on a leash?

Then look no further than our very young-at-heart senior Otto — he’s just 8 lbs of perfection! No puppy mischief or unexpected growth spurts with this cutie! He's completely vaccinated, neutered, and healthy. Our best guess is that he may be around 8-9 yrs old. He did have teeth that had to he removed, but eats canned food like a champ!

He's the ideal companion for someone wanting a quiet, easy to handle, affectionate pet. Want to meet him? Please contact [email protected]

Happy Tuesday! These pics of some of our youngest supporters with Wags Fund alum Lulu are too cute not to share!

Special thanks to big sister’s Girl Scout troop for their *donation of over $2000* to help the animals in our care! That money goes a long way with a small rescue like ours, and we are so grateful for their generous spirit and love of animals ❤️🐾🙏🏽

URGENT‼️

Tali is a super sweet, young kitten with a severely fractured femur! Our volunteers consulted 3 vets and all agreed that she is in need of immediate surgery, with estimated vet bills close to $2000!

Can you help us help her by making a donation today? Please like/donate/share so that we can ensure she gets the care she needs to live a healthy, pain-free life!

We recently took in two tiny, sick kittens from the home of an elderly, hospitalized individual. Four neighbors, including one of our long time volunteers, removed a total of 21 kittens from the property, with 15 of them going to rescue groups. They also trapped 18 adult cats and made sure all were TNR’d to stop the breeding cycle.

Charlie (ginger M) only weighed 1.1 lbs the day we picked him, and his littermate Frankie (grey F) was slightly larger at 1.6 lbs. Both were infested with fleas and worms, as well as a painful parasitic infection of their GI systems. Charlie also had an upper respiratory infection to deal with. But despite their rough beginnings, living outdoors with their very feral mama, these kittens will no longer be strays…we will make sure they are fully vetted, socialized, and adopted to loving homes.

As a small rescue that is 100% funded by donations and run by volunteers, we desperately need your help to keep going. Can you spare a few dollars today?

Happy tails! Lulu was officially adopted one week ago, and is already so loved in her new home. She is especially excited to have canine big brother Rex to enjoy life with!

Would you just look at this handsome guy?!

This is Brian, and he is quite a unique looking guy with a long body but short stature. He is an absolute darling and just wants to be wherever you are. He is an especially great snuggler and loves kids!

Brian is only 30 lbs, about 2-2.5 years old, fully vaccinated, HW-, neutered, and completely housetrained. He loves to go out for walks and adventures! If you’ve never had a dog before and are looking for the perfect companion, Brian is a dream 🥰

To meet him, please email us at [email protected] 🐾

Happy Friday!

Little Lulu is stopping by to show you her glamor shots — aren’t they amazing?! This is what we get when we pair up a perfect model with our award-winning photographer!

Lulu has several adoption applications under review and will be moving on to her new home very soon, but while she has your attention, she wants to ask you to take a look at our page and consider adopting one of our other awesome canine friends 🐶❤️

We can’t let National Dog Day go by without sharing pics of some dogs in our rescue who have been waiting a very long time for their forever homes!

Delilah, Raleigh, Salem, Bucky, and Kooper are all fantastic dogs! They don’t understand why no one is coming to see them, and neither do we. Please *share* to help us find families who will love them as much as we do!

If you are interested in meeting any of our adoptable pets, please email [email protected] 🐾

Um, hi. I'm Roscoe and I *cannot believe* my sisters Lucy and Lady left me out of their post yesterday — how rude! Well, I suppose it’s for the best since now I have your undivided attention!

I am everything you could possibly want in a young lad — I’m friendly, loving and quite the cuddle bug. I just love to snuggle and will purr and purr when we are together. I also have the cutest little back paws with white on my toes. I am fully vaccinated, neutered, and ready for adoption. Would you like to meet me? If so, please email [email protected].

On this Saturday Caturday 🐱, twins Lucy and Lady would like to introduce themselves:

Hello world! I'm Lucy and I am a very happy, playful girl. I am about 3 months old and ready to start the next chapter 📖 of my life. My ideal family will want a smart and curious 🧐 kitten who likes to play with toys and look into everything! I get along well with other cats and particulary enjoy playing with my siblings, Roscoe and Lady 🐈‍⬛ . I've included a photo of Lady and me, just in case you might be interested in adopting the pair of us.

Hi all! I’m Lucy’s twin sister Lady. We look almost identical, but I'm just a little smaller and quieter than her...hence my name, because I'm a little more ladylike 🌸. But don't let my initial shy demeanor fool you — I'm really a little girl with a very big heart ❤️ , just looking for a family to shower with my affection 🐾

Lucy and Lady are both fully vaccinated, spayed, and ready for their new home(s). If you'd like to meet either (or both!), please email [email protected].

You know who needs a happy tail? This girl!

Merida was thrown over a fence and dumped at one of our volunteer’s workplace (video in comments). She was picked up by the SPCA as a cruelty case and is now available for rescue or adoption.

Doesn’t she just have the sweetest face?! We’d love to show her that there are some very kind humans who would take great care of her, but first we need to find someone willing to foster. Could that be you??

Please contact us at [email protected] or via PM for more information on how you can help!

Another happy tail!

Just a few days ago, Arya went to her new home. She's a dog who we courtesy posted and assisted by sponsoring some training for her. Voila! She now has a feline sibling and a mother who is very excited to have her. Have a great life, Arya! 🐾❤️🐾

It’s been a while since we shared some happy tails, so now is as good a time as any to do that!

Last week, Jules went to his new home. He was being courtesy posted for a kind couple who took him in and needed help marketing him. We soon realized that he is a gem! By taking photos and posting him, Jules was able to find his forever home. He is living a great life with his new mom and dad, hanging out at coffee shops and starting a new training program. Glad that we could help with finding him his home 🐾

See this sweet face?? Someone dumped her *over a fence* at a business at 4:20am today. She is sweet and we really would like to keep her out of a shelter, but can only do that with a committed foster.

This girl is 2-3 years old, 40 lbs, and very sweet. If you can be her foster hero, please let us know. All supplies and vetting is covered, she just needs a kind, caring foster to show her that not all humans are as cruel as the one who dumped her 🥺

Please share and help us save this dog!

We love dogs with great ears, and it doesn’t get any better than this…so today we are showcasing Raleigh!

After being abandoned in a box at a few weeks old, she has come a long way. This 7 month old shepherd mix is full of s***k and smarts. Raleigh is a gorgeous and athletic young dog. She's energetic and does need to be kept busy. This girl has no fear and doesn’t hesitate to share her opinion!

Raleigh loves playing with toys, high-energy pups & dogs, and exploring. More than anything, she loves mealtime! She has worked hard on her basic training and is continually working on being a well-behaved dog. She goes to the office with her foster mom and behaves perfectly in her crate during meetings and when she’s left alone. Raleigh is also house-trained and crate-trained.

With her energy, smarts, and personality, Raleigh is the perfect pup for someone wanting to bond with their dog through consistent training. Tricks, obedience, and agility classes would all be great for her. Nose work would be her specialty.

Want to adopt the smartest pup on the block? Contact us at [email protected] to meet her!

Several of our adoptable dogs have been waiting a VERY long time for their forever families to find them. All are in foster homes except Delilah, who has been in boarding for over 1.5 years. If you are considering the addition of a dog to your family, please reach out to us to meet any of these wonderful dogs ❤️ #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #rescuedog #adoptdontshop #rescuedogsofinstagram #homefortheholidays #alliwantforchristmas

4-legged Friends

You never know how dogs and cats are going to get along…but we are so happy to see Willie Waffles (fka Sarabi) and his new canine sibling Birdie are already besties!

Snow Day!

While most of us were trying to stay warm during the freeze, one of our adopters took advantage of the low temps and created a snow day for her rescue dog!
