Texas Great Pyrenees Rescue
TXDM has selected the Great Pyrenees as its breed focus this edition so the staff decided to call attention to a rescue organization that provides support for this breed when they are in need.

Texas Great Pyrenees Rescue is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization dedicated to the protection and rescue of Great Pyrenees in Texas and the surrounding areas.
TGPR helps Great Pyrenees that are considered at-risk for physical or mental injury, cruelty, abandonment, or are subject to euthanasia and inhumane treatment.

Animal Investigation and response
On May 9, 2019, Animal Investigation Response (AIR) provided assistance to Rowdy Girl Sanctuary in evacuating 133 of their animals to protect them from flood waters. Through the efforts of AIR and several other rescue organizations cattle, chickens, ducks, pigs, lamb and other farm animals were evacuated and moved to safety.
President and co-founder Monica Ailey reached out to us at TXDM following this incident to inform the staff of the organization?s mission. AIR aids not only dogs but all animals, and because of this story, TXDM has decided to feature two rescue organizations in this edition.
This Texas-based 501(c)(3) animal protection organization assists law enforcement, animal control agencies and communities with animal abuse related issues such as puppy mills and animal hoarding, as well as disaster relief.
