Saving lives in Houston
Hundreds of thousands of adoptable dogs and cats are killed in shelters every year — dogs and cats like those in Houston — just because they don’t have safe places to call home.
Best Friends Animal Society in Houston is dedicated to changing that. Working collaboratively with area shelters, animal welfare organizations, community members, businesses and passionate individuals like you, we’re developing foster programs, encouraging adoption and transporting pets to places where they’re more likely to find homes.
We’re also using a community-based sheltering model that encourages and empowers the public to be involved with and support all aspects of animal welfare in the community.
You can help homeless pets in your area by adopting, fostering, volunteering and advocating for them in Texas.
