Dr. Israel is a native Texan that received her DVM from Texas A&M University in 2005 and completed her residency in small animal surgery at Texas A&M University in 2009.
Dr. Israel’s passion for veterinary medicine was fostered as a young child where she grew up with a variety of animals including goats, chickens, horses, dogs, and everything in between. She works at Blue Pearl Veterinary Hospital and has performed numerous orthopedic and life-saving surgical procedures for SNIPSA rescues. Her specialty is total hip replacements which is a refined and sought-after skill. She married her “sweetheart” from veterinary school who also owns and operates two veterinary hospitals in the Helotes area. She is the proud mother of two children who enjoy spending time outdoors in nature. She can be found riding her beloved horse, Pearl, with her daughter or fishing in Rockport with her son and husband. Dr. Israel is a faithful surgeon at our Big Fix clinics and a practical sounding board for our organization.

Fruits, greens, and a basket full of toe beans! 🍊🥬🐾 That’s what you’ll leave with when you attend the Alamo Heights Farmer’s Market on January 19th! Let’s face it: Browsing for produce is so worth it when there are puppies waiting at every turn. So, spice up your shopping experience and swing by our SNIPSA tent to peek at our adoptable rescues. They are fresh for the pickin’! 🧺💗

It’s easy to feel misunderstood when you have never experienced empathy. ❤️🩹
Bruno was rescued from a hoarding situation with four other small dogs on Friday, January 3rd. He took a little longer than the others to adjust (that’s okay!), and has spent the past week decompressing at our office. Bruno was picked up by an experienced foster on Monday and has been the best boy in her care. 🏡💗
Remember that when you adopt or foster a dog from SNIPSA, you are giving them the opportunity to transform. Not all dogs get the perfect life—But you can be the one to change that! 🥹

Are you ready to tap into a world full of love and snuggles? Meet Porter, a Dachshund/Chihuahua mix and our Pet of the Week! 🐶🩵
This pint-sized guy may be small, but his heart is rich with love! When Porter came into our program, he was a little on the shy side. However, after being in foster care, he can’t help but wag his tail and ask for belly rubs. ✨🐕
Without question, this guy would be so ‘hoppy’ to meet you! So grab this ‘cold one’, sit back, and prepare for a barrel of love. Submit your application below! 🛋️🤍🍻
