Texas

ACAC Provides animal control services to the entire county, including two cities. Cats and dogs are up for adoption after a 3 or 4 day stay at facility.

K-9 Angels Rescue is an all-breed, non-profit, canine rescue organization established in February 2012. Many of our core volunteers bring along years of experience from serving other Houston rescue groups. Since Feb 2012 we have found homes for over 2300 dogs (as of December, 2015). Our volunteers are compassionate, companion animal welfare advocates dedicated to contributing their time, skills, finances, and experience. In turn, their dedication helps save the lives of the abandoned, abused, homeless, neglected, orphaned, rejected, stray, and surrendered dogs in Houston's animal control facilities. We are committed to rescuing and re-homing these dogs regardless of their breed or circumstance. We are motivated by the dire need to educate the public about the effects of irresponsible breeding practices, while helping the community by alleviating overcrowding in area shelters. K-9 Angels Rescue Board Members and Volunteers are 100% VOLUNTEER and receive NO compensation. We are not a shelter in the sense that we are not positioned to accept dogs from the public. We personally select our dogs from the greater Houston animal control facilities where all dogs are subject to destruction because their "crime" is not having a home. A dog selected into our rescue program remains in our care until adopted. Only when we are able to secure the best match between dog and new caregiver(s) is the dog released from our program. We believe in foster homes. A foster home provides the dog with a loving, safe environment and allows for behavioral observation and training. When a foster family is not available our dogs are kenneled until transported to our Adoption Center on Saturday morning.

We are a foster based, no kill and all volunteer rescue. We are dedicated to saving as many lives as possible from Houston's street and high kill shelters. All of our animals live in foster homes until they are adopted, we can therefore tell you a lot about their personality, likes/ dislikes and any training.

We are a nonprofit organization run entirely by volunteers. We are trying to help our local shelter reduce the number of pets that are needlessly euthanized by taking in primarily the ones that are too young or too sick for adoption or need socialization. We do it because we love animals and want to help save as many lives as possible.

Picture PAWS Humane Society was founded by dedicated animal rescue volunteers in order to be able to provide a loving environment and all of the proper veterinary care for the highly adoptable animals in local shelters that otherwise would not have received the opportunity to continue their lives. We feel that education and providing information about resources available to pet owners will help prevent the overpopulation that the shelters of Bell County and surrounding areas experience. We are a non-profit group who is completely volunteer and works off donations provided by the public. We are not government funded. We have no physical shelter location and all of our animals are placed in fosters until their time for permanent adoption comes.

We are a small group of seasoned rescuers/fosters/shelter volunteers whose mission it is to save as many animals, as we possibly can, from being euthanized in local kill shelters. We, also,offer services to assist with behavioral issues and strive to educate the public on ways THEY can help fight the animal overpopulation crisis in our area!

Im Troy Bradfield the Animal Control Officer for the City of Nassau Bay for the last 16 years. We are a small city with only four large dog kennels (Indoor/outdoor) that takes in on a average of 50 dog per year and 40 cats. We did real good with our dogs but need to improve on our cat adoptions. I'm hoping that with rescuegroups.org we can improve on the number of adoptions.

We have one sole purpose, and that is to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home Dachshunds in need of a second chance at life and love. We rescue purebred (and a few mixed) dachshunds from pounds and shelters. Some have had a wonderful life but were dumped by their only family at a shelter for no reason at all, while others have been abused, abandoned, neglected and starved of food and human affection their entire life. We believe there is a home somewhere for every dog rescued, some just take a little longer to find. Dachshund Rescue of Houston is a 501(c)(3) corporation supported strictly through donor contributions. Our volunteers include law, accountancy and taxation experts, who make sure that all funds are utilized in accordance with the laws and regulations required to be in full compliance with our tax exempt status. All donations are deductible to the full extent of this law. Because we have no paid staff or facilities, every dime of your donation goes strictly to the care and vetting of our dachshunds. The events held to raise funds and awareness are self supporting through the generosity of sponsors and donors. We are a small group of doxie lovers that all happen to call Houston "Home". We love the dachshund breed and can't bear to think of any dachshunds suffering.

Rescued Pets Movement Inc. is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3)* all-volunteer organization that transports animals from Houston and Greater Houston area shelters to other 501(c)(3) nonprofit animal welfare organizations that have demand for adoptable pets. Thousands of dogs and cats are needlessly euthanized in the Greater Houston area each year simply because of pet overpopulation. After working with various rescue groups for many years, the founders of Rescued Pets Movement have come to realize the best way to save these dogs and cats is to build solid relationships with reputable shelters and rescue groups here and in areas of the U.S. where pet overpopulation isn’t such a dire issue, and then arrange transportation to get the animals there. Not only is this the best way to save Houston’s shelter pets from euthanasia, but we believe it will be the impetus in helping Houston shelters become no-kill shelters. Working with BARC in late summer of 2013 alone, Rescued Pets Movement has saved more than 450 pets by transporting them to Colorado.
