John brought his three pets (Peek a Boo, Sam, and Bruno) to the Crandall clinic for preventative mediation. John desperately needed help controlling the flea problem. Through our Random Act of Kindness program, we were able to give all 3 pets a supply of Comfortis for free. He was very grateful! We are delighted to be able to help people in need.
Fort Worth resident helps community cats in her neighborhood
Fort Worth resident helps community cats in her neighborhood
Guadalupe Venegas says she “unintentionally” became the neighborhood cat lady in 2021. “People dump cats near my house all the time,” she said. “The cats just sort of wander onto my property, and I care about them, so I feed them. Since then, the cats seem to know where to come for help.”
Venegas knows where to go for help too. She doesn’t want the cats to have any more litters, so she traps them and takes them to SNN for their free spay/neuter surgeries, rabies vaccinations, and microchips, thanks to the generosity of the Saving Hope Foundation. In less than a year, she has trapped 12 felines that have wandered up to her door.
“I am grateful to have this kind of support in my neighborhood,” she says.
Eleanor gets the time she needs to show off her amazing self

Eleanor’s owners called 311 to schedule an appointment to surrender their recently adopted dog back to the city shelter. They said Eleanor was being destructive in the home, and they didn’t know what to do about it. Our Pet Support & Resource Center staff assured them we could find help for Eleanor so they could keep their newly adopted dog. They were eager to try anything.
So, we referred them to Dallas Pets Alive and their PASS (Positive Alternatives to Shelter Surrender) program. Through them, they received free training resources and a virtual consultation with a trainer to help guide Eleanor on how to be a good canine. As a result, Eleanor’s owners are no longer thinking of giving her up. They say she loves training and seems to have loads of potential.
These are the happily-ever-after stories we hope to create for pets every day.
Our Pet Support & Resource Center is an award-winning partnership with the City of Dallas and Dallas Animal Services to provide alternatives to surrendering a pet to the city shelter. Through this program, Spay Neuter Network provides services and resources to keep pets in their homes; helps pet owners rehome their pets on their own if needed; or routes pets to our local rescue partners for quicker adoptions.
Luna’s pregnancies were too much for her owner, but we said we could fix that
Luna’s pregnancies were too much for her owner, but we said we could fix that
Margaret couldn’t handle her 2-year-old cat, Luna, getting pregnant anymore. Just when she would get one litter of kittens homed and out the door, Luna was giving birth to another litter who would require eight more weeks of Margaret’s time. While Margaret knew she needed to get Luna fixed, she didn’t have the money to do so. Sadly, like many other lower-income pet owners, she thought her only choice was to surrender Luna to the city shelter.
Through our Pet Support & Resource Center, we look for alternative pathways to keeping dogs and cats out of the city shelter and with their families. We spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped Luna – all for free, thanks to donations and generous grant funding for this project. These simple services kept Luna from being separated from the only family she had ever known. And, she won’t be contributing to the pet overpopulation problem anymore.
These are the happily-ever-after stories we hope to create for pets every day.
