Houston Humane Society Rescues 26 Dogs from Flood-Affected Central Texas Shelters

In the wake of devastating floods across Central Texas and the Hill Country, the Houston Humane Society has taken swift action to support overwhelmed animal shelters in the region.

 

On Tuesday, July 8, a dedicated rescue team from Houston Humane Society traveled to hard-hit areas to transport 26 dogs and puppies from overcrowded shelters back to Houston. The animals were relocated from the Hill Country Humane Society, Brady Humane Society, and San Saba Animal Hospital facilities working tirelessly to make room for animals displaced by the floods.

 

“We know this is a difficult time for the community and animals affected by the flooding,” said Aaron Grady, shelter director at Houston Humane Society. “We’re grateful to have the resources to provide help where it’s needed most, and we’ll continue to support these shelters and their animals as recovery efforts continue.”

 

By relocating these animals, Houston Humane Society is helping open up critical space so shelters in the impacted areas can respond more effectively to the ongoing crisis. All 26 dogs and puppies are now safe and receiving high-quality care in Houston as they await adoption into loving homes.

 

The organization is urgently seeking foster families to temporarily care for animals in need. Houston Humane Society provides all necessary supplies, food, medicine, bedding, and more. Fosters only need to provide a safe, quiet space like a bathroom or laundry room.

Thank you, Best Friends, for helping make these important transports and relief efforts possible.
