Foster-based nonprofit saving North Texas companion animals through rescue, education & adoption. #DallasPetsAlive
About us
Our organization is run mainly by volunteers and all of our pets are housed by dedicated foster families throughout North Texas. We rescue and help the healthy and treatable animals at greatest risk for euthanasia at our partner shelters. We also provide assistance and resources to pet owners having problems so significant that they need to surrender their pets to a shelter. We are challenging the way our community views rescue animals. Adoption is not only the right thing to do but THE thing to do!

Are you interested in learning more about Fospice? 📧foster@dallaspetsalive.org for more information
"Fospice Fosters" Late one evening last week, the Petszel team received a touching message from a shelter partner, Dallas Pets Alive! (DPA). A foster parent with a terminally ill dog, Izzy, wanted one final wish for her: to officially be adopted, so she would be remembered as a cherished family member. DPA requested a special adjustment to Izzy’s settings in Petszel to ensure this wish was honored, which our team was able to do immediately. This led us to a meaningful discussion about the compassionate world of “Fospice” care, where fosters dedicate themselves to providing terminally ill pets with love, comfort, and a family in their final days. Izzy’s story is just one example of the incredible dedication shown by fospice fosters. These caregivers go above and beyond, giving their animals the experiences they deserve—even if for a short time. Izzy was lovingly cared for by her foster, who kept her comfortable and happy, taking her on walks, visiting with neighbors, and providing her favorite treats. As Sarah McGoldrick from DPA shared, fosters like Izzy's create final chapters filled with love, joy, and dignity. Each story is a powerful reminder of the compassion and community that surrounds these pets. The first two photos below feature Izzy, followed by photos of Annie, Indigo, and Stevie Nicks—other beloved "fospice" pets that DPA and their incredible fosters have cared for.

Since August, I've been enrolled in a course called "Social Entrepreneuship". This innovative class focuses on developing relevant hands-on experience through having its students raise funds and plan events. Instead of a final, we raise $500 for a charity of our choice! Today, I'm launching my crowdfunding campaign! My classmates and I are raising funds for Dallas Pets Alive!, a nonprofit on a mission to promote and provide the resources, education and programs needed to eliminate the killing of companion animals in North Texas. Consider donating or sharing our campaign to your friends and peers. I encourage Animal lovers from across North Texas to take the opportunity to give back!

Adoptable Faye would love to invite you to check out her profile, and the profile of the other DPA adoptable dogs, cats, and 🐷on our website! Click the link to find a new four (or sometimes three) legged family member today! dallaspetsalive.org
Adopt Faye! Faye is a sweet 13-year-old brown cocker spaniel with a heart full of love and a spirit eager for a new beginning. Found guarding her late owner, Faye’s devotion and resilience speak volumes about her gentle nature and loyal character. Despite her past, Faye is a friendly and sociable girl who thrives in the company of other dogs and is always ready to be the life of the party. She’s a shadowy sidekick who will follow you everywhere, ensuring that you’ll never feel alone. Faye’s beautiful coat had to be shaved due to severe matting, but her charming personality shines through as she waits for her fur to grow back. She’s ready to embrace a future filled with affection, playtime, and the warmth of a loving home. If you’re looking for a devoted companion who will fill your life with joy and loyalty, Faye is eager to be your best friend and make every day brighter. https://lnkd.in/gaaU-KRm
