RESCUE TAILS

“I couldn’t have lucked out more,” Wayne says. “They are the perfect addition to my family, and they’re so loved by everyone.”

To top it off, Sal had a “spicy” attitude that made him less-than-welcoming to staff and volunteers. But under all that sass was a survivor.

“I’m on my way to pick up a Great Pyrenees rescue—do you know anyone who might want to adopt him?” I stared at my phone for a moment before replying, “Maybe…?”

Ruby, Becky & the Man Who Believed in Second Chances

Three lives. Two rescues. One unforgettable bond.

More tails coming soon!

Raise the woof!!! ❤️

We’ve got two paws up for all the love we received on Giving Tuesday this year. Thanks to your support, coupled with our amazing sponsor, Maria Molnar, who matched your donations dollar for dollar, we raised $20,471 in the name of rescue. 🙌 Each and every dollar raised will serve to find more deserving pets home for the holidays, and fund countless spays and neuters at SNIPSA. We are so THANKFUL for YOU!

Fosters, we need you ASAP! 🚨

These sweet faces need a soft place to land! With the weather cooling down, there’s no better time to snuggle with a rescue who needs you. 🙏

Fostering really is that magical:

✨ You save a life, literally.

✨ You help them learn what love feels like.

✨ You get all the cuddles, wiggles, and puppy snores your heart can handle.

If you’ve been thinking about fostering, now is the perfect time. Even a short stay makes a huge impact for these cuties waiting to find their forever homes. 💙

Text 210-372-5995 to foster now!

Every rescue has a different story, but they always have one thing in common...

A search for a home. 🏡

One that is full of love, treats, good health, and all the belly rubs a cat or dog could ask for.

At SNIPSA, we don’t give up on our rescues. Medical issues, behavioral quirks, animals that just get overlooked...there is a space for everyone here. ❤️‍🩹

This #GivingTuesday, we’ve been given the incredible opportunity to match your contributions dollar for dollar. That means twice the funds and twice the animals we can help!

Don’t miss out on your chance to donate to SNIPSA in our final hours of Giving Day. If you can’t offer a home, you can offer your heart. 🤲 Link in bio to Give.
