Our Featured Pet...
Tigger
Please take this pup the rescue coordinator of the San Antonio Animal Control asked - a local no-kill shelter has offfered to help you with his broken leg. Not only are we one of the few rescues that will pull puppies from that shelter - we will take a lot of the broken and injured dogs that face sure ethanasia. For Tigger - the 12 week old hound mix pup - there is no help for his break - it had been broken and healed for a while - so his leg is a little cooked. We are looking for a big hearted family that will give this loving pup a home and a chance to be part of a family!!!

Who We Are
Homeward Bound Dog Rescue is a group of individuals who have dedicated our lives to saving dogs from "Kill Shelters" by fostering and adopting these pets out to what is hopefully their "forever" home. We started out as a San Antonio satellite Great Dane Rescue working with PAWS of Austin. As we got more and more fosters - we started pulling more and more dogs from the San Antonio kill shelter (ACS). Because we were in Austin so much with the Danes - our site address is actually based in Austin but all of the dogs are located in San Antonio. We are dedicated to helping these animals become family members and not
just pets.
We are NOT a shelter - but rather individuals that have opened our homes to the unwanted.... if you would like to help in any way - please email us!
Adopting a friend
Please check out all of the dogs we have on our adoption page - maybe they would make a great addition to your family! We would always like to find the right home for every dog. Because all of our dogs are in foster homes, we usually know if a dog will be happiest with other dogs or without other dogs in the home, if they will be okay with cats, and if they'll be okay with children.We work with all of the applicants to find the right energy level of dog for their family and the right temperament. All of this pre-adoption work helps to ensure that this adoption will be the perfect fit.
A completed adoption application is required, including the name and number of your current veterinarian and landlord, if applicable. We will contact your current vet, landlord and personal references, if needed.
The adoption fee’s are posted below. All of the adoption fee's go toward our rescue expenses. Unfortunately, the expenses incurred to vaccinate, test and treat (when necessary) for Heartworms, spayed/neutered, micro chipped, and feed these dogs while in rescue far exceeds the adoption fees. Also, many of the dogs that we get into rescue are in need of additional veterinary care as a result of previous abuse and neglect.
Adoption Fees:
Mix Breed Dogs - $125.00 +
Puppies - $150.00 +
Pure Breed dogs - $150.00+ depending on breed
Great Danes - $250.00 + depending on age
Senior Dogs over 7 years - $100
All adoptions have a mandatory 7 day trial adoption before the final
adoption will be finalaized.
