🚨The kittens at the shelter need YOU!🚨

We have officially hit the second wave of kitten season, and the shelter is FULL of sweet babies in need of foster!

Fostering kittens is about a two week time commitment, where all you need is a bathroom, laundry room, or separate area for the babies to live and a willingness to provide some TLC!
DAS provides all food, housing supplies (blankets, toys, playpens, etc.) and medical care.

It is only because of our extensive foster community that we are able to save so many kitty lives, and our fosters are all currently working hard taking care of bottle fed kittens that have steadily flowed in this last week.

We need all hands on deck for this last push at the end of the season, so if you are interested in learning more please reach out to [email protected]!

Look at Snickers! 😍😍

If you have been here a while you know I can't resist sharing amazing transformations!

The photo on the left is this poor pup's intake photo from the City of Denton Animal Shelter. She arrived at the shelter in that condition on May 16th. Before she had a name she was only known by #58519541, the photo on the right is her now!

She now goes by the name Snickers, because she is as sweet as candy!

How is this even the same dog?

This transformation was made possible, because someone got her off the street, someone shared that sad photo on the left which made someone else tag someone who had a soft spot for dobermans, that person stepped up to foster and secured a great rescue to make sure this pup only gets the wonderful care and the very best home from that day forward.

Miss Snickers is getting really close to being ready for adoption, so she stopped by for some fresh adoption photos and can we just appreciate how STUNNING she is now. She is very treat motivated, she loves people, she loves her foster brother and is just a great girl.

When she is ready for adoption she will be available though Lone Star Doberman Rescue TX.
