Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Flyin' Angels Transport Program
Our transport program has saved thousands of pets since 2018! We
transport adoptable dogs to their new forever homes in the Pacific Northwest, and Canada. These areas do not have the pet overpopulation problems that exist in Southeast Texas. We are saving the lives of dogs slated for euthanasia at the Beaumont Municipal Shelter. These animals often end up in our city shelter due to the lack of homes in our local community but find forever homes in other areas. Rather than these animals taking their last breath at the city shelter, they are given opportunities for new hope, new homes, and new families.
Altered Angels Low-Cost Spay & Neuter Program
The stray animal population in Hardin, Jefferson, and surrounding counties in Southeast Texas is HUGE! Public and private shelters are overcrowded. Spaying female and neutering male animals guarantee no new puppies. Anna’s Angels Dog Rescue is on a mission to end pet overpopulation in our local communities by providing a low-cost spay and neuter program. By working together to spay and neuter all dogs, we can help end pet overpopulation and reduce the killing of unwanted animals in our city or county animal shelters. More than anything we want to help stop the overpopulation problem and the only way to do that is to start at the root of the problem. Please consider making a tax deductible donation to our spay and neuter program today!
Happy Heartbeats Heartworm Treatment Program
Anna’s Angels Dog Rescue is getting to the Heart of the Matter! Our heartworm treatment program was created to help cure the thousands of amazing and sweet adoptable dogs that come into our adoption program that suffer from heartworms. A Heartworm-positive dog deserves the same chance to find a forever home, as those that aren’t HW Positive. Their condition puts them at a disadvantage due to its treatment cost as some adopters do not have the monetary means to treat this curable disease.
PAWlunteer Program
Our volunteers play an important role at Anna’s Angels Dog Rescue. Each task performed makes a significant contribution to the health and welfare of our animals. Food, water, and exercise
are only part of the process! Fostering an animal for a night or two, or even taking them on a day outing will
help us understand the needs of each and every life we save. By offering your time and talent, you improve the quality of life for our animals while they wait for their new forever homes. Our volunteers play a role in helping fulfill our vision of creating a community where 100% of the adoptable animals find loving homes and no animals will be euthanized because of pet overpopulation. Contact us today for volunteer opportunities like the following: Drivers for transport and local pick-ups and deliveries, Administrative and Clerical, Community outreach, Social media, Dog photography, and Socialization. There is something for everyone!
Pet Ambassador Program
A new initiative through which members of the community help spread the word on their social media platforms about things Anna’s Angels Dog Rescue hopes for people to get involved with. We want to leverage the power of neighborhood support, especially around social media and the nextdoor.com platforms and spread the word about lifesaving adoption events, sleepover programs, fundraising events, new fostering initiatives, the need for donations, and more. The AADR PET AMBASSADOR
will help share information about our mission and programs by attending special events as an ambassador.
This may include tabling special events, phone solicitation, event planning, participating in adoption events, distributing flyers, or promoting our work on social media (Facebook, Instagram, Nextdoor.com). We will cover everything from safety net fostering, adoption, low-cost spay and neuter, our heartworm treatment fund, and help for lost pets.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
We believe no animal should endure a life of pain and suffering from a life of abandonment and neglect. We take in the broken abandoned and abused. They are placed in a foster home to decompress and heal and some even need to learn to trust humans again. To educate our communities and bring awareness about spaying and neutering their pets, along with the importance of heartworm prevention and proper vet care & microchipping.
In hopes of helping to cut down on the pet overpopulation along with diseases and viruses that can be deadly. A new facility to be able to help more homeless dogs in need. Grow our local foster volunteer base. We would love to have a low-cost or no-cost spay and neuter clinic in Southeast Texas.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Collaboration & teamwork Community events. We would like to offer educational information to Connect with our community and get people more involved. Be a positive image in the community. Passion and commitment to Advocate for the animals.
Working towards a new facility to be able to help more dogs in need.
Increase marketing and Outreach activities for more foster and volunteers. Bring a low or no-cost spay and neuter clinic to our area.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Team Leadership, teamwork & communication are key, and strong will and motivation to achieve our goals. Social media marketing, fundraising, and applying for grants to be able to reach our goals.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
Thousands of dogs that we have rescued are now in loving forever homes. 2020 we helped 1500 dogs and a couple of cats. Calibration with local animal controls transport partners with rescues in state and out of state to be able to help even if we did not have foster homes available. We are looking forward to finding forever homes for thousands more! Thousands of successful adoptions and transports to the North East and Canada where they are living the lives they deserved. We have grown and have an amazing team and we are always looking for new volunteers and fosters. We couldn’t do all this without each and every person that is involved. And all our adopters and supporters for the continued support.
We thank you all from the bottom of our hearts.
Now on to another great year and many more lives saved!
