Great Pyrenees Advocates of Texas, Inc.

Texas is known as having the largest stray dog overpopulation problem within the U.S. Each day dogs are euthanized in shelters, dumped on roadsides and suffer neglect and abuse. Great Pyrenees Advocates of Texas was established to respond to the high numbers of at-risk Great Pyrenees and Great Pyrenees mixes that need our help. Our mission is to provide hands on rescue assistance as well as community outreach and education about the breed. We believe these measures combined will save the lives of hundreds of “Pyr’s throughout Texas. Many of the dogs we help have medical and behavioral issues and our commitment is to provide the care, love and rehabilitation these dogs will need to be placed in the forever homes they deserve. We are excited that Great Pyrenees Advocates of Texas is a strong voice for this regal breed followed up with action and lifesaving support to make a tremendous impact on the homeless dog population in Texas.
