These people are not only angels, but they are talented, experienced, and skilled at evaluating and rehabilitating the neglected and abused furry souls that they rescue. 4 years ago I adopted a Rottweiler-Shepherd mix that had been rescued from a deplorable situation, emaciated and very fearful of people to the point he would not make eye contact, with a fear of small confined spaces to the extent had difficulty walking through doorways and would not get in a vehicle for transportation. They worked with him for a couple months, taught him to sit and motivated by food, he learned to bond. On their recommendation, I chose him. When I adopted him, he continued to gain weight, learned to jump into my truck, and is now a 95 lb lap baby. He's the sweetest most loving and well behaved dog I've every owned. THANK YOU to the staff at SPCA of TX for seeing his potential, helping him overcome his issues and choosing him for me. Ya'll are the BEST.
I have volunteered with the SPCA for over 7 years. I have adopted 4 animals from them. Yes, I am sort of the crazy dog lady. They are dedicated and compassionate people that infest all of themselves in every animal that crosses their path. My experience both as a volunteer and as an adopter has been overwhelmingly positive. This is a top notch organization with a really big heart.
In my opinion, the SPCA does some amazing work! I've volunteered there and have seen first hand the work the employees and the volunteers do on a daily basis. So many caring people who truly have the animals' best interest in mind. The work is not always fun, sometimes sad, but people are resilient (as are many animals!) and they continue on doing great work!
Of course the SPCA does amazing things for animals, but the way their treat everyone (Employees, Volunteers and Clients) is just as amazing. It's basically a big family all working together on something they are all passionate about. I deal with a lot of businesses this size, and it's rare to find one that is this caring of their staff. Great Organization that's extremely passionate about what they do.
Review from Guidestar
I love the SPCA of Texas! They are such a great organization and treat the animals with such care. The facility is clean, and the animals are lovingly fussed over by employees and volunteers. I also like the fact that the SPCA of Texas does not euthanize for lack of space. All of the animals get the time they need to be adopted.
SPCA of Texas is an outstanding nonprofit that has gone great lengths to serve the surrounding area whether by providing low cost spay/neuter surgeries, taking in unwanted animals and helping them find their forever homes, or coming to the rescue of abused or neglected animals. I have been a volunteer with the SPCA of Texas for over 5 years in multiple capacities and I have always seen generosity, compassion, and love for the animals in their care. They are also very appreciative of their volunteers and their customers. Stop by the Dallas or McKinney locations to see it for yourself!
