ANIMAL DEFENSE LEAGUE

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, 78217-2318 United States

Mission Statement

The Animal Defense League of Texas (ADL) is a non-profit organization that rescues homeless dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens, and provides medical treatment, nutrition, and shelter in a safe, live-release facility until they are matched with their forever families. Through community education and empowerment, we advocate for responsible pet ownership.

About This Cause

Supported by adoption fees, donations, grants, bequests from individuals, and special events, and directed by a volunteer board, ADL provides programs and services that strengthen the bond between pets and people. Through the operation of two facilities, a centrally located 12-acre main campus, and the city-owned Paul Jolly Center for Adoptions, ADL saves the lives of vulnerable pets primarily originating from the most poverty-stricken communities in San Antonio. A full veterinary hospital, housed at the main campus, allows for routine spay/neuter surgeries, vaccinations, microchipping, and medical needs for all pets in ADL’s care. In addition, ADL performs specialized surgeries for animals with complex medical conditions and is the first organization to provide no-cost mobile wellness clinics to historically underserved areas. ADL is San Antonio’s oldest no-kill shelter. No pet is ever euthanized if it can be treated and returned to health. If the shelter reaches its maximum capacity, no additional dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens can be taken in, but no pet will ever be euthanized to make room for others.
