We are the Midland Animal Shelter Adoptables. We started in the fall of 2013 with the goal of networking the animals in the Midland shelter to increase adoptions. We quickly started rescuing animals from the shelter and placing them in foster homes till they could be adopted. We believe that every animal should have a chance at a loving home and we firmly believe in pets being spayed/neutered.

FRAs is an all-volunteer 501 (c) (3) Texas organization founded in 2004. FRAs is working to improve communication between shelters and the community. By partnering with our local animal shelters, networking with animal rescue groups, utilizing community resources and social media, as well as conducting off site adoption events and fund raisers, we are able to help increase animal adoptions.

We are dedicated to rescuing homeless and abandoned animals, including dogs, cats, and livestock, from high-kill shelters and owners who can no longer care for them. By working with committed volunteers, foster homes, local veterinarians and amazing sponsors, our goal is to be able to rescue animals, provide them with loving temporary care, and find them well-matched, carefully screened forever homes. We also strive to serve as a resource to our community and all pet owners by providing education and information on responsible pet ownership, including the importance of spay/neuter, positive behavior training, and good nutrition.

Cody (a little black/white shih tsu), was the first pet I owned as an adult. He was a Shih Tzu that I bought unknowingly, from a Puppy Mill. He fought for his life and barely survived, suffering for the first few months of his life. From then on I was stirred by a ferocious passion to save as many dogs as I could through networking with other rescue groups and saving the ones I could off of cold streets and unwanted in shelters. Cody did not live a very long life due to a weakened body, but I was able to love on him for eight good years! He will always be loved and forever remembered. With over 400 dogs rescued so far, we ARE making a difference!!

The DFW Humane Society is a no-kill, non-profit animal welfare organization dedicated to giving homeless and unwanted pets a second chance through adoption.

We are a 501(c)3 non-profit rescue group for dogs and cats in kill shelters in Texas and Louisiana.

Wayward Whiskers Cat Rescue is an independent "special needs" rescue in San Antonio and was founded in January 2013 by Sherry Pfau. We save the lives of less adoptable cats and kittens that may otherwise be discarded or euthanized.   All Wayward cats and kittens are spayed or neutered, de-wormed, vaccinated and FIV/FeLV tested, given a flea preventive, and cared for until they are placed in a forever home. If the cat has an injury or illness they will be treated prior to adoption as well. WWCR is an approved Animal Care Services rescue! We are also a recognized Texas non-profit and will be filing for our 501(c)(3) status in 2014!

Texas Cattle Dog Rescue (TCDR) is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) animal welfare organization dedicated to rescuing stray and abandoned Australian Cattle Dogs and providing medical and foster care, then placing these dogs in loving and caring homes. TCDR rescues dogs from city and county shelters throughout Texas. We find new, forever homes all across the state for our dogs. Our mission is to reduce the shocking number of heelers euthanized in Texas shelters. We match each rescued dog with a forever home where he/she will be loved, cared for, and fully enjoyed and appreciated. Educating current and future owners is a key focus and helps us match dogs with homes. We believe pets should be spayed and neutered to reduce pet over population. We also ensure our rescued dogs are healthy and vaccinated when they are placed.

We operate next door to our sponsoring hospital, Animal Hospital Southwest, where we rescue special needs animals from shelters that are in need of extensive treatments like for heartworms, traumatic injury, or similar issues. We then rehabilitate them and find them forever homes. All Adoptees are spay/neutered, microchipped, fully vaccinated, current on baseline labwork which includes heartworm and fecal checks as well as on a heartworm preventive.
