Throw a Dog a Bone Dog Rescue

Throw a Dog a Bone is an all-breed dog rescue located in Austin, TX. Although Austin is a no kill city, hundreds of shelters throughout the state are not. Sadly, many shelters in Texas are euthanizing healthy adoptable dogs, sometimes even puppies. Our mission is to rescue as many of these dogs as possible and find them loving forever homes.
