OUR STORY
Our story starts with a handsome four-legged friend by the name of Spencer. Our founder, Stacey Jones, received a call about a dog who had been hit by a vehicle and needed urgent medical attention. Many times rescues and fosters are nervous to take in animals with medical needs because of their high costs but she could not look away as he suffered from his injuries.
Unfortunately, by the time we got Spencer to our vet, his injuries were just too severe to save him. What eased our heartache was the fact that Spencer did not die in a shelter or alone on the street, but was surrounded by all of us while we held his paws and he journeyed across the Rainbow Bridge.
Our experience with Spencer showed us the urgent need for a rescue that would not turn away dogs and cats that were in desperate need of medical attention. This is how Saving Pups of Texas was born, out of a strong desire to save those dogs that others are hesitant, unable or unwilling to take in.
We hope that our successes will also encourage other rescues and shelters to follow suit, rescuing dogs and cats off the street that might incur those potentially higher costs but still deserve our care and compassion.
OUR MISSION
Our mission here at Saving Pups of Texas is rescuing dogs and cats from the streets and shelters of Houston then pairing them with their loving "furever" families. Bonds are created with every dog and cat we take in, but our goal is always to see them on their way home! We know we can’t save them all, but we will sure try.
COMMUNITY INITIATIVES
Saving Pups of Texas, along with their Community Partners, strives to provide our local communities with access to affordable veterinary services, training, behavioral services, nutrition and general wellness.
