Texas Shelter Doing Everything It Can

The folks over at All Kind Animal Initiative in Texas have built a reputation for compassion and action. They're committed to being a no-kill shelter, a rare and honorable mission. But when numbers climb beyond what they can manage, even the best efforts reach a breaking point. This is that moment.

The staff and volunteers are doing their part. Now they need the community to do theirs.

Take a look at the gallery below and follow your heart. Adopt or foster one of these beautiful animals.

They’re Not Broken, They’re Just Waiting

The dogs at risk aren’t dangerous or difficult. Many are loving, gentle, and simply waiting to be noticed. Some have spent weeks—or even months—watching people walk by without a second glance.

There are young ones full of energy, older ones with wise eyes and calm hearts, and those in between who just need a bit of consistency and love.

They don’t need perfection. They just need you.

If you or someone you know is looking for a lovable companion, be sure to stop by All Kind Animal Initiative at 610 South 11th Street in Abilene, or get updates on pet adoption on their Facebook page.
