Brownsville Animal Defense

Dog rescue in Brownsville, TX

We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) rescue organization specializing in the rescue of dogs in the Rio Grande Valley. We are not a shelter. Our rescue process involves finding loving foster homes for all the dogs in our program until their forever home can be found. As you can imagine, we are in constant need of volunteers, foster homes and funding. Any help given in any of these vital areas is greatly appreciated and essential for our efforts to continue.
