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.
To top off an amazing month, Saturday, September 26th, might’ve been our best Race yet.
We had a record number 1207 registrants, rocked the most amazing swag, garnered new sponsors, discovered fun vendors, showcased our new SNIPSA van, hosted the largest canine mascot on wheels, and provided a venue where people could simply have FUN!! It was an amazing tribute to partnership, community, hard work, and people loving their four-legged companions. We couldn’t be more grateful to all the paws that came together to bring our “Puro Street Life” vision to life.
Special thank you to Sophia Russell and her beloved Sookie for leading the pack with $4,681 raised in this year’s Face of the Race competition.

They say the best view comes after the hardest climb, and we are hoping that is true.
We are Alaska and Denali, two of the sweetest sisters abandoned at a local apartment complex. We were discovered by an animal lover who fed us breakfast tacos before bringing us into her care… What can we say? We have refined taste! Here is what our caring foster has noted about us since being in her care:
We are highly intelligent, typical of the shepherd breed!
Denali, that’s me! I am historically loyal and loving, especially with my sister, Alaska. I was previously attacked by a coyote, the likely cause of my scarred nose.
Alaska is the name! I am a little more on the silly side; I go with the flow and tend to follow my sister’s lead.
Together, we are both very gentle, low-key, and affectionate towards humans, despite being unhoused for months and months.
We have had tough times and our fair share of mountains to climb. We are ready to find our base camp. Could that be with you?
