Lost your pet? Found a stray animal? Looking to adopt a new family companion? The Animal
Defense League of Texas takes in rescued fur babies and provides them with medical treatment
and shelter. This safe, reliable no-kill shelter also offers low-cost spay and neuter services, free
biweekly pet vaccination and microchipping events along with education, training, grooming,
emotional support and foster services. Please inquire how to become a foster if you can — a very
urgent need this time of year, when strays are coming of age and people are surrendering their
animals in record numbers.
