Friends For Life is a No Kill animal rescue organization. With the mission of providing an alternative to shelters that kill homeless animals, we are “redefining adoptable” to give more animals a chance at loving forever homes. We are proud to report that more than 75% of the animals we have successfully rehomed were classified at other area shelters as “unadoptable.” At Friends For Life, we will never reject an animal because he or she is “too old, too small, too sick or a member of a certain breed.
Healing Species Texas is an award winning character education / violence intervention program. Each week, an instructor visits the school with the assistance of a rescued dog to teach children a process to overcome abuse, rise above their situation and practice being important. All dogs have overcome their own circumstances to offer a living example of perseverance, integrity and hope.
