SNIPSA is an organization formed by a group of veterinarians and caring individuals dedicated to helping homeless and unwanted animals in San Antonio and the surrounding area.

Let’s be honest: your dog has probably been training for this race their entire life. You? Maybe not.
Race for the Rescues is SNIPSA’s biggest fundraiser of the year—and it’s one of the most fun ways to help homeless dogs and cats in our community.
Join us for a pet-friendly 5K starting at the Alamo Heights swimming pool. Run it, walk it, jog it, sniff every tree along the way…whatever works! Bring your dog(s), your family, your friends, or your entire four-legged fan club.
Every step and every dollar helps SNIPSA provide spay/neuter outreach and lifesaving veterinary care for rescue animals in our community.
So leash up, lace up, and come race for the rescues!


Don’t let the resting grump face fool you—Nutmeg and Cinnamon may always look a little grumpy, but they’re two of the sweetest cuddle bugs you’ll ever meet! True to their names, they’re equal parts sweet and spicy, and they’ll let out an adorable little grumble if you try to move them from their favorite spot on the couch. It’s all for show—they love being close to their people.
These two have settled into foster life like pros. They’re almost completely potty trained, do great in their crates, and even know how to use a doggy door. They love car rides (especially trips to Port Aransas!), are always up for a game of fetch or anything involving a tennis ball, and get along wonderfully with other dogs. They’re also fantastic with kids, and their foster family’s two little ones are their favorite people in the world.
At mealtime, tiny Nutmeg may be the smallest, but she’s definitely the hungriest eater of the pair!
If you’re looking for two cuddly, goofy companions with lovable personalities and just the right amount of sass, Nutmeg and Cinnamon are ready to spice up your life. Apply today to meet this adorable duo!
