    Looking for a rescue group in Texas--Help! (border collie & chihuahua)

    I'm a social worker at a nursing home & am trying to help a resident find new homes for his border collie and chihuahua. Some people from his church are taking care of them right now, but he's worried about their care. (I know these people myself & would not trust them with my pet rock let alone something living.) Does anyone know of any rescue groups we could get in touch with around Lubbock, TX or Amarillo, TX? I think the man's son would be willing to take the dogs further (in Texas) if need be. So far I'm not having a whole lot of luck searching the net. Any help or advice would be appreciated!

    I cant help you but wanted to thank you for your efforts and tell you I will be keeping and your resident and his pets in my thought.

    I don't have any contacts in that area.  Try calling the local Animal Control offices in those towns and also shelters and ask for the names of local rescues for those breeds.  Most of these places deal with rescue groups on a regular basis and they should be able to help with contact info.
