All my questions were answered, and it was my first time adopting a dog so they had so many helpful tips and suggestions. The transport expectedly took a while considering the worlds craziness with corona virus, but the wait was more than worth it when I saw my Sasha come out of that truck. These people are great and truly care about their animals. I can't express how happy and grateful I am to have been given the opportunity to save this doggies life and give her the home she deserves!

By 3P I was at the shelter doing a meet and greet with my dogs, and filling out paperwork. Darlene, Terrie and Michelle are all top-notch!! They make sure you are legit and that you and your current animals are a good fit with the new animal. These ladies and the other staff I didn't get to meet clearly work very hard at this shelter. It was beautifully maintained and the animals are clearly well cared for. They work with other shelters and Texas Humane Society to rescue dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens. If you are looking for a pet, I highly recommend checking here and if you want to help a shelter, your donation couldn't go to a better place! So grateful for the time and attention of these dedicated people to help these helpless animals. (heart emoji!) 3-22-22

We searched for a nearby animal shelter to receive our year-end donation. There are some that do a…read morelot of good, and a few that aren't very communicative (perhaps because they get crank calls and need to protect their privacy). Then we heard about the City of Marble Falls efforts to improve its own public animal shelter. We contacted the main person with the shelter, a police department investigator named Rachel Baldree. Ms. Baldree was very generous with her time, explaining the shelter, its significant budget problems (annual budget from the city of only $2500), its successes (adopting out more dogs than ever this year, at a very low cost to adopters) and its great need for donations for maintenance & repairs. We've visited the shelter. It's extremely basic, but it's the only public resource for strays and animal control dogs & cats. There's a HUGE need for donations for its current improvement plans (a yard & fence, better plumbing, better interior, more kennels, veterinary assistance, etc.). They have a general no-kill policy except for aggressive or very sick animals. If you like to support animal shelters, I can't think of a better place to put your money.

Volunteers are generally quite friendly and are happy to chat, especially with regular customers. If you go, I'm sure you'll become a regular too! I've visited just about every thrift and antique shop in the hill country area, but this is the only thrift shop I visit on a near-weekly basis, simply because it's such a pleasant shopping experience. Item pricing is generally very reasonable, they have a few higher-priced items but many lower-priced to make up for it, and they put out new items fairly frequently.

Tracy was so kind to take the time and give us a tour. Even more impressive was that she knew all the animals names and their story and where they came from. Every single animal there matters and they have a home for life if they do not get adopted. We travel a lot and have never seen a place like it. They even have an airbnb you can rent. Go, donate, adopt, or volunteer your time.

It's a great way to give back to the community and give these fur babies some love and attention! The volunteer class was very organized and informative. We got a shirt at the end and we got to volunteer for about 90 minutes afterward too, and now we're all set! We adopted an 18 month old cat here a few years ago and have been hooked ever since. We'll definitely get our next cat & dog from here too. Adoption fees are nominal considering the care and attention each animal receives. The cattery is our favorite spot, but we pick a couple of Level 1 dogs to give our attention too as well. Adopt, don't shop!

How can I NOT love an organization that gave us our sweet Kylo Ren?…read more I stumbled upon his adoptee page and instantly fell in love. I visited him at one of their adoption fairs and signed the paperwork and paid the $300 deposit on the spot. It did take a while from the time I paid my deposit to the time I was able to bring him home, but I think that was because I was so anxious to get him. The fee includes the microchipping and neutering which SNIPSA also handled. The surgery went well and now Kylo is all set. I can tell they don't really have time for training of any sorts because this little guy just does his own thing. I don't fault that for them since they probably have a lot going on. Kylo has been a very welcome and needed addition to our home and I'm thankful SNIPSA was able to give that to us.
