YOUR DONATION SAVES LIVES AND SECURES THE FUTURE OF CODY'S FRIENDS RESCUE

AS A 501(C)(3) NON-PROFIT, WE RELY ON THE GENEROSITY OF SUPPORTERS LIKE YOU TO CONTINUE OUR MISSION

Every week, lives are lost. In shelters and on the streets, countless incredible dogs are running out of time. Many people don’t realize that their local shelters are full of adoptable dogs — every breed, size, age, and personality — just waiting for someone to give them a second chance.

 

At Cody’s Friends Rescue, we fight every day to change that. We rescue as many dogs as we can from heartbreaking circumstances — but the need never stops. Irresponsible breeding, puppy mills, and uninformed pet owners continue to flood communities with dogs who have nowhere to go and no one to protect them.

 

We cannot do this alone.

DOGS IN OUR CARE

OUR $80,000 Goal

As we continue to grow and solidify our place as a trusted rescue in North Texas, especially in the Dallas area, we’re expanding our efforts to save more lives—particularly dogs at high risk of euthanasia in overcrowded shelters.

 

Instead of investing in a facility, we’re channeling all our energy and resources into pulling more dogs, providing top-tier care, and building a sustainable rescue model that reaches more communities and saves more lives. We’re focused on becoming a reliable, long-term staple in our region—known for our dedication, compassion, and results.

 

Your support is essential. Every donation goes directly toward life-saving care:

 

  • Routine and emergency medical treatment

  • Heartworm prevention and treatment

  • Nutritious food and vital supplies

  • Training and rehabilitation

  • Transportation and logistics

  • And so much more behind the scenes

 

Together, we can give every dog the second chance they deserve. Thank you for standing with us and fueling the future of rescue in North Texas.

MISSION

At Cody's Friends Rescue, we are a dedicated group of volunteers united by a single mission: saving dogs. Together with our incredible supporters, we take on the challenging task of rescuing Dallas area dogs who have been abused, neglected, abandoned, injured, or are sick.

 

Our passion is giving these dogs a second chance at life, one dog at a time. We are committed to rehabilitating them physically and emotionally, ensuring they find the loving forever homes they deserve, no matter the effort or cost involved. This work is a labor of love, made possible by the generosity and support of people like you.

 

Rescuing animals and enriching their lives comes with significant financial responsibilities. We rely entirely on community donations to continue caring for the dogs currently awaiting homes. Your financial contribution on North Texas Giving Day will help us continue our mission, making North Texas a more compassionate and loving place for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages.

Driving Second Chances WITH Our NEW Adoption Bus

Every mile matters when it comes to saving lives. At Cody’s Friends Rescue, we dream of adding a fully equipped adoption bus to our fleet. This new vehicle would be game changing in allowing us to rescue even more dogs, reach even more communities, and place many more pets into loving homes.

 

This mobile adoption unit will give us the ability to pick up at-risk dogs from shelters, provide safe and comfortable transport, and attend more adoption events throughout North Texas. With your help, this bus will bring our dogs directly to the people who are ready to love them forever. Help us ensure that every deserving dog has a ride to their happily-ever-after.
