Rescue Groups
Central Texas Dachshund Rescue
Most CTDR dogs come from Texas animal shelters where they are in danger of being euthanized. We also accept animals from the public if space is available in an appropriate foster home. Some of our dachshunds have had a good life, but have fallen on hard times because their master has passed away or because they've escaped their yard and become lost. But some of the dachshunds we take in have been abused, abandoned and neglected and require time and patience to bring them back to happy, healthy, loving pets.
SAVE Rescue Coalition
Since 2012 SAVE Rescue has been on the frontline of the homeless pet problem in the Greater Houston area by rescuing and promoting adoptions for both dogs and cats. Over 8,850 animals have been rescued by our program and over 6,500 animals have been altered and are no longer adding to the homeless population.
Texas Cattle Dog Rescue
Since 2009, Texas Cattle Dog Rescue has saved more than 1500 Australian Cattle Dogs (also known as ACDs or red and blue heelers). TCDR is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) animal welfare organization dedicated to rescuing stray and abandoned heelers, providing medical and foster care, then placing these dogs in loving and caring homes.
