By becoming a monthly member, for as little as $10 per month, you can save medically-urgent dogs like Ludwig — dogs who otherwise wouldn’t make it out of the shelter.

“Ludwig just needed a chance. I took a chance. OTAT took a chance. Look at where it got us.” — Kelly, Ludwig's foster

In January, we welcomed handsome, sweet, slobbery Ludwig from our sister organization OTAT - West Texas. Ludwig had been hit by a car and suffered a spinal cord injury. Though you couldn't tell from his infectious smile, he had a long journey ahead of him. 

As with any new spinal cord injury, it was uncertain if Ludwig would live life in a wheelchair or be able to walk again. Today, Ludwig is running like a track star with only some “wheeble wobbles,” as his new family says.

Members make it possible for us to say yes to medically-complex dogs like Ludwig.

While saving lives is sweet enough, new members receive a special gift at sign up; access to our private community Facebook group for resources, updates, and additional support; our newsletter; early access to special event ticket sales; and invites to private members-only parties.
