The Amarillo SPCA is a 501(c)3 non profit organization. We operate solely on donations and fundraisers. We operate a shelter for dogs and cats and have approximately 140 animals, most of which are housed at the shelter. A few live temporarily in foster homes. One of our main concerns as an organization is pet over population. It is important that the public be educated about the importance of spaying and neutering their pets. It is also our goal to make sure every animal that is adopted from the SPCA is sterilized before going to a new home. We receive calls daily from people who request help with their animals--either needing to give them up or asking for help with food and medical needs. We help whenever we can. Our kennels are full most of the time but we will try our hardest to accommodate any animal that is homeless or needing a home. Because of our own expenses, we rarely are able to help the public with pet care costs. We do provide spay and neuter vouchers for a significantly reduced fee. We also provide microchipping services to the general public for a reduced fee. We have grown to the extent that volunteers alone cannot provide necessary hours for operating the kennels. We have a shelter manager and part time employees along with volunteers who work hard maintaining the shelter. Many animals we bring into the shelter need immediate medical care, and all animals that come to us receive their shots, a microchip and sterilization before being adopted into their new homes. Frequently these expenses are far more than the adoption fee of $100. It is our duty to provide the best medical treatment possible regardless of cost for our animals--and therefore our vet bills are always very large. We have created this website to provide accessible information concerning all of the animal related organizations and events that are occuring in the Texas Panhandle as well as a resource base for those seeking advice or care for their pets. Therefore, we invite anyone who is affiliated with a particular animal welfare organization, specialized pet-owner group (such as pet therapy or obedience training,) or any business that is in the service of animals (veterinarians, groomers, pet sitters, etc.) to contact us so that we may tell the public about your organization or business. We do, however, respectfully decline to list any breeders or to promote breeding services as it is not in alignment with our mission of curbing the pet overpopulation crisis. Thank you, The Amarillo SPCA

We are the only no-kill shelter in Northern Baja California. We rescue, rehabilitate, and re-home hundreds of dogs and cats, taking them from horrible living conditions to the lives they deserve.

We are the only no-kill shelter in Gilmer County. We began in 2000 and have rescued 6,000 animals. We are all volunteers dedicated to helping homeless animals find their forever homes.

We are a small non-profit (501(c)(3)) no-kill adoption shelter meeting the needs of the homeless and abandoned pets. All of the dogs that we take in are given a personality test to make sure they will fit in a kennel situation. They are all heart-worm tested and if positive, treated. Our dogs stay in big covered yard runs unless the weather is bad and then they are put up in their indoor kennels. Our cats are all FIV and leukemia tested before we take them in. If they are positive, we will not take them. We do not want to expose any of our cats/kittens to disease. We have a cageless kitten room and a cageless teenage/adult cat room. All of our animals are spayed/neutered and if too young the adopters are given a voucher to have it done when they reach the right age. We vaccinate/worm all our animals immediately. We do not take in Pit Bulls or Chows. We want to make a difference in these animals lives; we are their voice and we want to find them the best forever homes possible.

All breed rescue that primarily fosters dogs, but some cats as well.

several people broke off from a local rescue that had become, in our opinion, too much about prestige and money. They also weren't doing a good job in caring for the pets physically and mentally. We want to focus on the quality of our work, not quantity. We do rescue simply because it's the right thing to do! I am a certified vet tech so i've always thought that it's kind of my duty to share my talents.

Metairie Humane is dedicated to the rescue of dogs and cats that have been abandoned or reliquisted by their owners. No pet is killed. Homes are found for all pets coming into our organization. We do not let pets suffer because of society's ignorance, abuse or life changing situations.

Burlington County Animal Alliance is a private, independent, 501(3)(c) nonprofit animal advocacy group, that was founded in 1999 by Lorraine Schrieber and Barb Giano who have a love for animals. To date, we have around 60 members of BCAA. We focus primarily on rescue and adoption of shelter dogs and cats in high kill shelters and surrounding areas in New Jersey. Our main focus is to make the public aware of the numbers of homeless dogs and cats there are in shelters and to promote adoption of these animals. We advocate spaying and neutering of all companion animals to counteract the overpopulation of dogs and cats and to end the tragedy of euthanizing healthy, unwanted companion pets.
