Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Griffon is an incredibly good natured boy who is right at 12 months old and currently weighs 68 lbs. Griffon is playful with toys and people and energetic but also has a calm side, is a leaner and a lover. Griffon ignores cats that belong in his household but will chase strays or if they run. Griffon likes other dogs but will need proper doggie introductions with an experienced dog owner.
This dog currently resides in Bandera, Tx. , We transport dogs to Washington State usually 2-3 times a month. Please understand that there is additional vetting, health certificates and costs involved with transporting a dog from Texas to Washington and our adoption fee is $350.00 which covers everything from the spay/neuter to the actual transport cost.
*All of our dogs have tested Heart-worm negative and are on a monthly heart worm prevention protocol

Mission Statement
To reduce the overpopulation of adoptable pets in Texas Hill Country kill shelters through:
1. Relocation
a) Adopting to Out of State Homes and working with Partner Out of State Rescue Organizations to transfer dogs and cats from the over populated shelters in Texas to where there is a shortage of adoptable and sought after pets.
Many States have a shortage of dogs and cats in their shelters due to aggressive spay/neuter attitudes and/or programs. Saving Shelter Strays relocates approximately 400 vetted dogs per year to Out of State homes and /or with our Out of State Rescue Partners where the dogs quickly get adopted to well vetted homes.
2. Spay/Neuter
a) An aggressive spay/neuter and vetting program for all animals leaving the shelter before going to their new adopted homes.
b) Offering spay/neuter services for pets leaving the shelter when being picked up by their owners.
c) Setting up spay/neuter clinics including offering transportation for owners who can not afford to properly vet their pets without assistance.
Ultimate Goals:
• Educate the next generation and have spay/neuter become synonymous with pet ownership
• Educate potential adopters on the value of a well vetted rescue pet vs. free adoptions from backyard breeders and shelters giving away intact animals
• Purchase transport vehicle to facilitate the relocation of Texas dogs and cats to Out of State adopters and Partner Rescue Organizations
