Dallas Pets Alive!

At Dallas Pets Alive, our mission is to promote and provide the resources, education and programs needed to eliminate the killing of companion animals. We take an innovative approach to animal rescue and believe in creating a paradigm shift in the way our community views animal rescue. Adoption is not only the right thing to do but THE thing to do.

Our Goal: To one day make all of North Texas No-Kill

OUR APPROACH

Our organization is run mostly by volunteers, and all of our pets are housed by dedicated foster families throughout North Texas.

We rescue and help the healthy and treatable pets at greatest risk for euthanasia at our partner shelters. We also provide assistance and resources to pet owners having problems so significant that they need to surrender their pets to a shelter.

In our rescue program, we focus on:

• Rescuing healthy and treatable pets at North Texas shelters at the greatest risk of being euthanized
• Reducing owner surrender through our Positive Alternatives to Shelter Surrender (PASS) program
• Opening kennel space by transporting pets to partners in the U.S. and Canada in need of adoptable animals
• Challenging the way our community views rescue animals. We believe that adoption is not only right thing to do but THE thing to do!
