Our Mission

About Forgotten Friends Forgotten Friends started rescue efforts in 1999 taking in mixed breed dogs who would never have found forever homes and remained forgotten. In 2004 we became a 501(c)(3) which enabled us to greatly improve our ability to save more lives and contribute to the happiness of our adopter families. Our goal was and is, to speak for the voiceless, restore them as close as possible to good health, and find forever homes that can commit to their lifetime care. We are a totally volunteer based group and all of our donations and adoption fees go directly to our dog’s veterinary care, food, heartworm prevention and basic needs. Any donations given to Forgotten Friends are tax deductible.

Adoption Policy

If you are interested in adopting one of our puppies or adult dogs, please fill out the application below as thoroughly as possible so that we may evaluate if you might be the best candidate for the dog you are applying to adopt. Our goal is to make the “perfect” match between what the applicant family needs and wants in their new dog and the individual needs of each and every dog. Applications are evaluated on the best match possible for our dogs and not on a first application basis. It is the commitment of each of our fosters to find the best home possible for each and every one of their fosters. Some homes may be a better fit than another and we trust our Fosters to make that decision for their dog. Many of our dogs are living in a private “mini” shelter environment, so evaluations like house training, good with cats, etc. may not be available. These dogs are all waiting for appropriate foster homes to have an opening so we will be in a position to have more pertinent information that will help with their placement. When your application is received, it will be forwarded to the appropriate foster home. All fosters are volunteers and will be answering your applications as soon as time is available The foster will discuss your needs and their foster’s needs and personality to see if they and you feel their foster may fit into your home. We have found that often an application may not suit the dog that is being applied for, but is just perfect for another. In this case we will refer the applicant to that dog and away from the one for which they placed their application. We will also work with you to find the best dog possible for your needs, limitations and desires! Each foster can decline, redirect or confirm an adoption. Individual fosters have their own guidelines in different areas for placement of their dogs. ****** We normally do not allow adoptions outside of the general Austin area or allow out of state adoptions.****** A call to your ve
