Our goal at Texas Humane Heroes is to take pets from a 5% chance at life to a 100% chance at a loving home. We rescue pets from municipal shelters throughout Texas, some with save rates as low as 5%, and provide them the opportunity to give and receive love.
Be sure to follow us via social media to keep up with the latest tips and news.
