My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Pepaw, a 10-year-old Chihuahua who has mastered the art of cozy living and heart-stealing charm. Pepaw is a gentle, sweet senior who believes life is best enjoyed at a slower pace—preferably curled up next to his favorite person, Memaw, who just happens to be his whole world.

Pepaw loves lazy days, soft beds, and soaking up all the love he can get. He’s the perfect companion for someone who enjoys quiet afternoons, warm snuggles, and a loyal little shadow by their side. His calm, affectionate nature makes him an ideal match for a relaxed home where he can enjoy his golden years feeling safe and adored.

If you’re looking for a devoted cuddle buddy who will happily nap the day away with you and remind you to slow down and enjoy the simple things, Pepaw is your guy. 💙

Our Story

Founded in 2018, Cactus Ranch Rescues was born out of equal parts compassion, caffeine, and good ol’ Texas stubbornness — a response to the heartbreaking overpopulation crisis facing our state’s pets.

Originally tucked away on peaceful acreage in Elgin, TX, the ranch quickly turned into a full-blown rescue rodeo — with wagging tails, woolly coats, and the occasional feathered diva demanding VIP treatment. (Yes, we once shared the barn with a duck who thought she was management.)

After a short hiatus — because even rescuers need a nap and a moment to remember what “free time” is — we’re back and thriving in Bryan, TX! Our space might be smaller now, but our hearts are still Texas-sized, and our determination to save lives could lasso the moon.

These days, we mostly focus on domestic animals (because we finally admitted we can’t fit a cow in the living room). We serve as a stepping stone rescue — helping dogs go from crisis to comfort, from “code red” to couch-ready. Think of us as the halfway house for hounds, the pit stop for pups, and the emotional support humans for anyone with paws.

Every animal that finds their way to the "Ranch" becomes part of our family — quirks, belly rub demands, and all. We rebuild trust, restore joy, and prove daily that even the most broken spirits can wag again.

Cactus Ranch Rescues — where healing begins, one wag and heartbeat at a time.
