How to Help

Please donate to DDRTX!

Diamond Dachshund Rescue of Texas is always in need of donations. We have many options for helping us care for our dachshunds including monetary donations, sponsorships, bequests, and donations of goods like beds, blankets, kennels, leashes, and collars. We can also use volunteers, foster parents, and dog transporters, so please help any way you can!

Planned Giving is an opportunity to ensure the future of DDRTX and the lives of so many animals. Planned Giving can consist of leaving DDRTX as a beneficiary in your LAST Will and Testament, Establishing a Charitable Remainder Trust for DDRTX, Donating Real Estate, Artwork, Securities, or Gifts through Life Insurance. For more information, contact Kathie McGowan at ed@ddrtx.org.

 

DDRTX is always in need of foster homes! We try to save as many dachshunds from unsafe situations as we possibly can. Unfortunately, we do not have foster homes to house all the dogs in need. Foster placements can range anywhere from a few hours to a few months, and we are willing to work with your scheduling needs. All foster dogs will be spayed, neutered, brought up to date on shots, be heartworm and parasite free, and on heartworm preventative before they are adopted. If you are thinking about becoming a foster parent, please e-mail the Foster Coordinator for more information:  debbie@ddrtx.org

If you would like to become a foster parent, please contact us at debbie@ddrtx.org.

If you are unable to foster at this time, DDRTX can still use your help! We always need people to pull dogs from kill shelters, transport dogs to vet visits, foster homes, and to their forever homes. If you have a talent, gift or service to offer, we can find a way for you to help. Simply email us at volunteer@ddrtx.org.

If you would like to volunteer, please contact us at volunteer@ddrtx.org.

We are working on updating this section about our volunteers.  Please check back in soon!
