I think everyone knows the Three Stooges. But did you know Curly fostered and found homes for more than 5,000 dogs in his lifetime?

As Easter approaches we want to remind everyone that rabbits are not an Easter gift. A bunny is a 10 year (+) commitment. Having a bunny is a fair amount of work. They require attention, room to run, and special veterinary care.

Remember to do your research before getting any pet. We receive surrender requests constantly and it's not even Easter yet!

❗️When we can’t say yes, knowing we’re their last shot...❗️

We are desperately in need of fosters for puppies and adults! Our next life saving transport arrives on April 3rd and there’s so many more animals we want to save! Shelters are filling up fast and begging us to take more but we are all out of fosters! We need your help! 🙏🙏

Fostering is a minimum of a 2 week commitment. You provide a place to stay with lots of love, we supply you with everything you need!

The answer is YES! You can foster if:
🐶 You have pets
👶🏻 You have kids
🏠You don’t have a fenced in yard
🏢 You live in an apartment (with landlord approval)
💼You work full-time

We can only save as many as we have open foster homes for and right now we can not continue to say yes. The weather is warming up and it’s the perfect time to save a life. Apply below! ❤️

⭐️⭐️ FOSTER INCENTIVE ⭐️⭐️
Everyone who fosters for our Easter transport will be entered into a drawing for an OFR hoodie! 😎

Dogs who wear muzzles are good dogs. Dogs who aren’t dog friendly are good dogs. Dogs who are leash reactive are good dogs. Dogs who need space are good dogs. Dogs who are scared of strangers are good dogs.

If you see someone clearly making steps to avoid you or your dog while you are out walking, please respect them.

If someone lets you know that their dog needs space or isn’t dog friendly, please respect them.

If you see someone clip their dog on lead when you approach, clip yours on too and give them space.

Some dogs don't want to interact with other dogs or people and that's fine. I'm sure you don't want to interact with everyone you see either! They still deserve to have a great quality of life and go everywhere yours gets to go as long as they are taking the right precautions.

Having a dog that needs space is a challenge all of its own, but we are doing our best to advocate for them to insure they live the best lives we can give them. Training can't happen at all unless we take these dogs into public places. To everyone with friendly dogs, please don’t be offended and please don't judge. A nervous dog can happen to anyone at anytime. Instead of playing the blame game, let's all try make that dog's life more comfortable and its owners life much easier by being understanding 🖤

I have a headache today. Which made me wonder if Donald ever gets headaches. Do dogs get headaches? I googled it. Here's some information if you're curious like me!

https://wagwalking.com/wellness/can-dogs-get-headaches #:~:text=YES!,agree%20that%20they%20are%20possible.

Anyone who suffers from headaches may, from time-to-time, wonder if their pet companions suffer from them as well.

What are the good reasons?
Rescue dogs are THE MOST loyal dogs you will ever have.

And sadly, breeders are completely unregulated and therefore, the majority of "breeders " are backyard breeders.
And sadly, you are also perpetuating the proliferation of puppy mills.

There are purebred, working breeds and mixed breed dogs in rescue that can be trained to do a variety of jobs!

Street Savvy Dog Rescue has been hit with some mammoth vet, surgical, boarding and extra unanticipated transport within Texas to get dogs out of a foster home to boarding...

If you can donate anything, this goes directly to help us save, house, feed and care for unwanted Texas and Mexico throwaway dogs.

These type of bills can really impact nonprofits. $5- 25 by several people can really help out.

Our senior dogs need dental procedures.

Each dog costs $150 for transport just to get them to Oregon.
1 catastrophic accident can result in an unanticipated $3400 surgery for a dog.

Boarding 6 dogs at Holidawg Pet Resort in San Antonio for weeks just cost our rescue $2884.00

Donate through this posting through Greater Network, donating from our website or sending check or M.O. makes a difference for a dog who needs a 2nd chance.

Don’t use Seresto flea collars! I used to use these on Donald. Sounds like we’re lucky nothing bad happened. I now give him Nexgard chewables instead.

Since Seresto pet collars were introduced, the EPA has received more than 75,000 reports related to the collars, including 907 involving human harm.

Donald has his own little doggy corner. 🥰
