Who We Are

DrowzyDawg Rescue is a 501(c)3 animal rescue who specialize in companion animal rescue, rehabilitation, and adoption. We strive to our best to educate the public concerning animal health and welfare issues.

DrowzyDawg directly participates in, and provides a forum for others to engage in the promotion of animal welfare. We are affiliated with Petco Adoption Partners and Ally Cat Allies Feral Friends Network.

Seeing a need to find more outlets for rehoming healthy, loving pet animals in other states Drowzydawg Rescue now participates in large transports to other states and it has become a very needed switch from standard adoptions of one animal at a time. Today’s backyard breeders and puppy mills have created an overabundant number of pet animals and many never succeed in getting that loving home so we now work toward transporting them where they will be loved and wanted. We have saved almost 1,000 dogs and cats using this process.


What We Do

Drowzy Dawg is all about saving the lives of homeless dogs, cat, pigs and other companion animals in our community. Pulling from shelters to save from euthanasia and taking in strays when the room is available. The Rescue does everything possible to help rehabilitate and re-home as many furry friends as possible, and even networks with other rescues to maximize adoptions!

Drowzy Dawg is also involved in TNR (Trap Neuter Return of feral/stray cats) and work to prepare kittens who can be socialized for adoption.    We house a small population of geriatric unadoptable dogs and cats.  We assist, as financially possible, with food, healthcare, spay and neuter, and vaccinations for animals whose owners have fallen on hard times.

How We Do It

Our organization is run entirely by volunteers and all of our pets are housed by dedicated foster families throughout the Hill County and surrounding area.

We focus on helping the healthy and treatable pets who are at risk of euthanasia at Rural Texas Shelters – by rescuing the pets at greatest risk and helping owners who are having problems so great that they need to surrender their pet(s) to a shelter.

We are so grateful to the Dorothy Gaines Foundation and Bart and Suzanne Willis Cook for making this happen earlier in the year! From volunteers to donors we thank you each and every one – without you DrowzyDawg Rescue would not be saving lives – check out our project report:
