Your Immediate Action Can Save A Life Today!

Every day the lives of loving dogs are cut short, simply because there are no temporary homes for them. Please help support our mission of finding the perfect forever homes for all these precious pups by first stepping up to help us as a foster.

There's Always Room For One More Happy Smile!
Every Day We Save Lives
Your Support Makes It All Happen

CareTX.org has saved over 6,000 dogs and puppies in the San Antonio area since 2009 — help us save 10,000 more by 2022!
Thanks to the generosity of supporters just like you, CareTX.org has become a resounding voice for the No-Kill initiatives in the San Antonio area. Without your continued help, our community will continue to kill helpless dogs that have been lost or abandoned. Please give generously today!

Nothing Inspires Love More Than Fostering A Dog!
Fostering a dog is fun, rewarding and wonderful. It's a life-affirming project for the entire family that gives a dog a second chance at life and costs the foster family nothing. It can be done anywhere - in a city or suburb, a house or apartment. Fostering a dog can take place whenever you are ready.

You Make All The Difference
Do You Love Helping Furry Friends?
Adopting a dog or puppy is one of the most exciting things you can do. But along with the excitement, comes responsibility and a long-term commitment.
Will I be a good pet parent? Do I have enough time? How will dog ownership affect my lifestyle? While there are certainly some sacrifices that come with adopting and owning a pet, most people find it extremely rewarding!

Pet Matching
Bringing a new pet into your home is a big decision. How do you know which pet is right for you?

Adoption Process
CareTX.org carefully screens applicants to insure the perfect match between dog and owner.

Out-Of-State Info
Families living in the continental U.S. and Canada are eligible to adopt. We require unique criteria be met for out-of-state adoptions.

We Need Your Help To Save A Dog!
Our friends and neighbors can provide much-needed help by fostering dogs. We rely on members of the community to step up and offer temporary refuge to prevent these dogs from being euthanized. We are very effective at placing our dogs in permanent homes, but we desperately need foster homes to bridge the gap.
