Bridging the Gap to Care for Dallas Animals

We are dedicated to providing supplemental financial support to Dallas Animal Services, one of the largest municipal shelters in the country.

Dallas Animal Services cares for 24,000+ pets each year and needs YOUR involvement to ensure it can provide compassionate care for all animals and find positive outcomes for all placeable pets.

You can help bridge the gap between what the city budget provides and the cost of the innovative and lifesaving shelter programs that positively impact pets and people every day.

Kitten kits for the thousands of kittens going into foster homes this season.
