"Animals are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole." -Roger Caras

Big Dog Rescue is located in Central Texas. Our focus are big dogs that need a place to rest and recover, before finding their forever homes.

Big Dog Rescue was started by a young family after seeing an online ad asking for help. A female husky had been abandoned after her owner was unable to take care of it. The husky was underweight, losing fur, and had a red bulging eye. After two grooming sessions, two vet appointments, and a lot of TLC, she was a brand new pup and found her forever home. The process was so rewarding, we decided to make it a family fixture.

Our aim is to reduce pet homelessness in Central Texas through spaying/neutering homeless pets, educating the public, and placing homeless pets in their forever homes.

About Us

Our Process

Time is a big factor in our recovery process. A pet stays with us for a minimum of 1-2 months. This allows enough time for them to put on healthy weight, recover physically & emotionally, and adjust to their role as a family pet.

During their time with us , they receive: 

  1. Initial Vet Examination

  2. Necessary Follow-Up Treatments

  3. Vaccinations

  4. Spay/Neuter

  5. Grooming Sessions

  6. Flea/Tick Prevention

  7. Heartworm Prevention

A pet that comes to Big Dog Rescue is treated like our own.
