Snipsa - San Antonio Pet Shelter

Snipsa

SNIPSA is an organization formed by a group of veterinarians and caring individuals dedicated to helping homeless and unwanted animals in San Antonio and the surrounding area. SNIPSA does not have a standing shelter and depends on a core group of volunteers to foster and rehabilitate animals in their homes. This provides us with the opportunity to learn first hand about the animal’s needs and behavior in order to facilitate an appropriate adoption. SNIPSA was incorporated in 2006 and has re-homed more than 19,000 animals. The majority of the animals we help originate from high kill shelters. San Antonio impounds more than 27,000 animals a year, approximately 74 dogs and cats per day. Another 20,000 carcasses are picked up on city streets. SNIPSA makes weekly trips to area shelters to remove animals whose “time is up”. Many of these animals suffer from heartworm infection, fractures, mange, neglect, and have been used to breed year after year.

Adoption Process

If you are looking to add a wonderful pet to your family, you have come to the right place. Please view the dogs we have available for adoption. We ask everyone to complete an Adoption Application and to agree to the terms set out in our Adoption Contract. In an effort to maintain proper social distancing measures, we have made our Adoption Contract and Spay/Neuter Contract available online. All applications are reviewed in the order they are received, and, sometime we are on a waiting list for certain animals. Once we have received your application and it is approved, you will be contacted by our adoption coordinator within 48-72 hours. We will then have the foster family contact you to discuss the next steps of meeting with your potential new family member.
