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!

🔥 KITTY DUMP 🔥

These aren’t even all the fine felines that hit up SNIPSA this week. YES—all of them are available for adoption, but not everyone is old enough to be listed on our website. 😎 Some of these babies are just two to three weeks old!

See someone you wanna chill with? Apply to adopt today at SNIPSA.ORG/ADOPTION and make sure to mention this post! 🙏

And they’re off!!! 🐕💨

At the Doxie Derby this Saturday, May 2nd, our SNIPSA rescues will be racing for their forever homes… but they can’t do it alone! We need 10 to 15 more volunteers to help them reach the finish line.

Grab a friend, put on your best derby attire, and sign up through the link in our bio. You can “bet” it’ll be a great time! 🏁🧡

Pet of the week: Mr. Jay!🐾💚

Small body… BIG personality.
 Mr. Jay is the kind of pup who makes himself right at home in your heart (and your bed… and your couch… and basically everywhere).

At just 11 months old, this little guy is full of love, loyalty, and nonstop charm. He warms up fast, lives for attention, and has that perfect mix of playful energy + cuddle mode.

From zoomies in the grass to melting into belly rubs… Mr. Jay is ready for a forever home.

Ready to meet your new best friend?
 Apply to adopt Mr. Jay today 💚

Fostering isn’t just helpful… it’s urgent.

A couch, a quiet space, a few days of love—it can change everything for a dog who’s overwhelmed and still waiting for their forever home.

Be the reason one of them gets a second chance. 💙

We’ll provide everything you need—just open your home.

Text (210) 372-5995 to foster.

The trio you didn’t know you needed… until now!

Milo, Randy, and Otis came in together, and while their story started with a tough goodbye, it’s leading them to a forever home.

Milo: professional snoozer + gentle soul
 Randy: part time certified zoomer & part time cuddle buddy
 Otis: big softie who just wants to be close to you

Three different personalities… one shared goal: finding a home where they’re loved.

They’ve been through change together—now it’s time for their next chapter. Whether that’s together or separately, each of these boys is ready to be someone’s everything.💙

Apply to meet this trio in our link in bio.
