Dogs Matter

Milestone Monday 🎉

Today, we celebrate Randi Hampton and her incredible ONE YEAR SOBER milestone!

During her year at Taylor Recovery Center, Randi’s life underwent a remarkable transformation. She secured a job, acquired a car, and achieved stability, all while being supported by her loyal companion, Hank.

Soon, she’ll be back in Dallas to reunite with her daughter; a beautiful next chapter made possible through dedication and recovery.

We are so proud of you, Randi. Your hard work and resilience inspire us all. 🐾✨

🐾 Today is National Animal Advocacy Day -
and this is what advocacy looks like.

Meet Sadie. 💕

When Sadie’s mom made the brave decision to enter treatment, they were separated so healing could begin. One of her biggest worries wasn’t herself, it was her dog.

While Mom worked hard in recovery, Sadie was safe and loved through the Dogs Matter community, waiting for reunion day.

And now they’re back together.

You can see the happiness on Sadie’s face being reunited with her mom and starting this new chapter side by side.

After treatment, Mom secured housing that would welcome them both but Sadie needed updated vaccines and care before they could move in.

Because of your support, Dogs Matter provided:
🐾 Food support
🐾 Vaccines
🐾 Heartworm testing & prevention

Removing the final barrier so they could settle into a safe home and continue healing together.

A huge thank you to Shawna, their Recovery Coach, for supporting them every step of the way. Sadie and her mom are now part of our Aftercare Program.

Total sponsorship provided: $500

We’re excited to visit Lakehill Preparatory School this Friday! 🤍 🐾

Stephen Knight will be sharing how one dog helped inspire a mission that now keeps people and their pets together during recovery. Students will hear the story, ask questions, and meet Jayde, the emotional support dog who helped start it all.

The learning continues this weekend when students take a field trip to the Dallas Pets Alive Adoption Container to meet fosters, clients, and some incredible adoptable pets.

We love seeing young people connect compassion with action. 💛
