Forgotten Friends Mixed Breed Rescue

Forgotten Friends Mixed Breed Rescue Forgotten Friends is a 501 c (3) Austin, Texas-based rescue group, relying solely on donations. Volunteer with Us !!

Since 1999, we have pulled dogs from city/county shelters, owner surrenders, and those found abandoned in Texas border cities. WHAT WE DO

After rescuing animals from participating shelters, Forgotten Friends:
-provides a health exam with a participating veterinarian, including heartworm testing,
-provides the rabies shot and yearly vaccinations,
-dental, heartworm treatment and any other care nee

ded,
-has the animals spayed or neutered, and
-provides the animals with monthly heartworm medication. (Heartworm disease can be deadly, but is preventable if dogs are given once-a-month chewable heartworm pills.) They are then allowed time to adjust and become accustomed to a foster family environment (when one is available) before being adopted into their new home that is a good match for family and dog. http://www.volunteermatch.org/search/org41846.jsp

Look how far Breezy has come. We could have denied her life-saving measures but how can we turn our backs on a puppy who has a longer life ahead?

From her beginnings as a dumped stray found in a ditch with a sibling and their mother. Just 24 hours after arriving at the rescue, she was rushed to the ER and spent a week in ICU fighting for her life due to an intussusception--obstruction in the intestines. Thanks to life saving surgery and her unstoppable spirit, Breezy pulled through and returned to her foster home stronger than ever.

Despite needing a leg amputation after her recovery, Breezy hasn’t missed a beat! She’s now a happy, energetic "tripawd" who doesn’t let anything slow her down. Her resilience and joy are truly contagious. She is still waiting to be adopted.

As the video says, costs of dog rescue really adds up. Just so you know, we are not an animal shelter. We take in dogs like Dora so that they do not have to be in a scary and loud shelter environment. We want them to thrive and be adoptable. Fosters often pay for food, toys, treats, and give up their precious time. Even social media postings like this takes time. So if you cannot donate, please share. Thank you!! 😘🐾😘

We know that your family members and Thanksgiving dinner have come and gone but the dogs that are in foster care, are still with us. Just so you know, we are not an animal shelter. We are a small rescue that take in stray dogs pulled from the loud and scary shelter environment. Our dogs are very well taken care of, given high quality dog food, have toys, treats, and human or dog playmates for their socialization. Will you please help us help them?


FYI, both Dove and Wilson are adoptable. They are still in training camp and we heard that they are doing just awesome!! Read their bios and apply:
