Welcome

Hello from your animal friends at Adopt-A-Pet in Victoria, Texas. We are glad you stopped by. 

Our Mission

Rescue, rehabilitate, and find loving homes for homeless animals. Our animals are predominately rescued from the Victoria City/County Animal Control Facility.

Our Spay/Neuter Clinic 

 picture of kittensProvided as part of our ongoing efforts to reduce the number of unwanted puppies and kittens born. Through this service, we spay or neuter more than 1300 dogs and cats each year from Victoria and the surrounding communities. This has resulted in a significant decrease in the number of animals euthanized at our local animal control facilities.

Our Well Pet Clinic

Is offered to encourage responsible pet ownership, including caring for the health and welfare of pet dogs and cats. The low-cost vaccinations, deworming, heartworm preventative, and flea control products available to the general public allow all pet owners to obtain these necessary veterinary services.

Pet of the month

Gender - Male

DOB - 5/2008

Breed - Sheltie Cross

Color - Sable w/White

Lewie is a loving puppy who was originially brought to us (along with his sister, who is adopted) by an individual who found him and could not keep him. Lewie's sister was adopted a few days after arriving at our shelter, but unfortunetely Lewie hasn't been as lucky. He's an adorable little guy who loves everyone and anyone but just has not found a home. He has been working on his crate training and has made great progress! He can hold his potty until it's his turn to go outside. He's still a young boy with lots of energy and loves to learn. He gets along with all his doggie friends here at the shelter and would make a great addition to a doggie-loving family!
