We are a 501.c3 nonprofit no-kill animal shelter.

96 cents out of every dollar goes directly to the care of our animals, so please donate. 

Peewee’s Pet Adoption World and Sanctuary was established in 1995.

 

Peewee’s Animal Shelter is located at 1307 Saratoga and has been in operations since May, 1997. Peewee’s presently houses over 300 animals, including dogs, puppies, pigs, goats, and other barn animals. Peewee’s relies on donations only for its operation.

We are a 501.c3 nonprofit no-kill animal shelter. Shelter operations are accomplished strictly by donations. Our biggest contributor, HEB Food Stores, donates all the pet food we need. Peewee’s does not get any government, city, or federal funding.

Peewee’s helps those animals no one else will – the sick and the stray. The volunteers at Peewee’s work tirelessly to rehabilitate poor orphaned pets in the hopes that they will find new, loving homes. The animals are spayed/neutered, given regular heartworm preventative, and are on flea & tick prevention and medications as needed, 

We take dogs from a 100 mile radius around us, many of which come from kill shelters.  We get them well, treat them for heartworms and whatever else ails them, get them spayed, neutered vaccinated and socialized.  

Our dogs are adopted out through volunteer adoption coordinators in the East Coast and Canada where we send 50 to 80 at a time.  We place an average of 200-300 unwanted South Texas pets each month into wonderful homes in the East Coast, Canada, as well as a few in the Woodlands.  Their applications are very strict, long, and verified, so that all the animals are placed in wonderful, loving, forever homes.
