Welcome to the San Antonio Great Dane Rescue (SASPCA)

MISSION STATEMENT: 

To protect homeless, abandoned and mistreated Great Danes and other dog breeds within our volunteer care organization. To work with area animal shelters and humane societies in  rescue efforts to  help place adoptable animals into safe,  loving, forever homes. In support of ethical breeders who maintain breed specific, National/International parent club standards for the betterment of the breed,  to include all breed specific health and temperament testing.   To educate people about spay/neuter and the need for sterilization of all pets, proper health care of a pet, nutritional requirements, socialization and training.

Spay and neuter your dog...be part of the solution and not the problem 

We are a 501 (c) 3 charitable organization and we are the number 1 Great Dane rescue in San Antonio and surrounding areas.  We pride ourselves with all the volunteer work we do and everything we do for the dogs that we rescue. The rescue is an all-volunteer non-profit organization dedicated to the rescue, the rehabilitation and the placement of all great Danes and other breeds that are in the rescue.

All our dogs will go to their forever homes neutered / spayed to prevent the euthanasia of all healthy dogs and to reduce the number of unwanted dogs being destroyed each year. We try to educate the general public why you shouldn’t buy a dog/puppy from a pet store and and advise them about puppy mills and unethical breeding practices. 

We evaluate the temperament of the dogs that come into this rescue and make sure that they go to the correct family. We ensure that all of our dogs are in homes that will provide a safe living environment, which can give the attention and interaction that the dog deserves.  All of these dogs are in foster families throughout San Antonio and the surrounding areas and will stay there until the correct home will be found.  They are NOT in a shelter in cages or runs; they are all in loving homes that share our beds, our couches for that short period of our lives.
