My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Some pets are in the Shelter and others in Foster homes. Please read the bio & email the address listed in the bio. 

 Additionally for CATS you  may email  JShelton@eulesstx.gov

and for DOGS, email trinitygapclub@gmail.com 

 

 

 



Oakley is a sweet guy looking for his forever home. Our vet thinks he is about 5 years old. He’s neutered and UTD on vaccinations. Oakley is good with his fur foster siblings (including the cat) but in true border collie fashion prefers being nearest his humans. 

 

Oakley had a dental while in for his neuter and had to have 11 teeth pulled. The vet suspects he had distemper as a puppy and that messed with his enamel. He’s feeling much better and already eating dry food again. His tongue hangs out sometimes and it’s the cutest little smile.

 

If you’re interested in meeting this handsome fellow, please email bethpizzuto@hebisd.edu

Go meet their pets

Trinity GAP Rescue (TGR), founded in 2012, evolved to support The Trinity GAP Club (Girls Awareness Program), founded in 2003, as a girls club at Trinity High School in Euless, Texas. The mission of the Trinity GAP Club is to give these high school girls a positive outlet for their time and show them positive alternatives for their lives. Their community service project is volunteering with the Euless Animal Shelter and sponsoring as many animals as funds allow to provide spay/neuter, shots, and other vetting costs for the pets. Since a high school club has limitations as to the support they can provide the Euless Animal Shelter, TGR was formed as a 501c3 charitable organization to support the GAP Club and provide services beyond their capabilities. TGR and the GAP Club meet at the Euless Shelter once a week to interact with the pets and obtain information and pictures for networking sites to help these pets find homes. Adoption fees for these shelter pets recycle back into the program to continue vet funding for all shelter pets. Adoption fees do not even cover basic vet services, and there are always unforeseen medical expenses, so TGR and the GAP Club host adoption events and fund-raisers such as sales of baked goods, tamales, candy and candles and also host 2 large annual events on campus, a Pet Fair and a Walk-a-Thon. All funds collected by The GAP Club and TGR sponsor vetting and/or boarding for homeless pets. There are no funds for pets who come into the shelter sick or wounded. All vet fees are paid through donations to TGR and the GAP Club. TGR and The GAP Club work hard to raise funds to keep adoption fees low and competitive to help these pets find homes quickly since this is a municipal shelter with limited space. The Trinity GAP Club and TGR have made a huge impact in lowering the euthanasia rate of the Euless Animal Shelter by 80%. This percentage is misleading as it includes all pets, both adoptable and unadoptable. In the past few years, no adoptable pet has been euthanized. The Trinity GAP Club has won many local and state awards including “The 2009 Youth Volunteer of the Year”. Trinity GAP Rescue is proud to partner with the Trinity GAP Club!
