Welcome to the Friends of Del Rio Animals web site!
WHO WE ARE
Established in 2004, Friends of Del Rio Animals (FDRA) is the  first 501(c)3 tax exempt animal rescue organization in the history of Del Rio, Texas. Our ultimate goal is to build a no-kill animal shelter for which we will try to raise money through donations and grant writing, however the current economy situation does not make it feasible at this time. In the meantime we are working to educate folks about the importance of spay/neuter, and conducting fundraisers/taking donations so that we may hold two low-cost spay/neuter clinics per year. Our goal at this point and time is to make Del Rio a "No More Homeless Pets" community through spay/neuter assistance.

****FDRA IS POSTPONING THE BUILDING OF A SHELTER UNTIL THE STATE OF THE ECONOMY IMPROVES****
It has been voted upon by the paid membership to reorganize the group to focus on raising money and awareness for spay/neuter assistance programs. FDRA will be offering educational programs (upon request) to schools, day care facilities/ learning centers and clubs on topics such as, "The Importance of Spaying/Neutering Your Pet", "Responsible Pet Ownership and Proper Pet Handling", "Bite Prevention", and "Anti Animal Abuse."
FDRA hopes that by promoting spaying/neutering, and reducing the overall homeless pet population, the need for a shelter would then be alleviated. The Feral Cat Trap Neuter Release (TNR) program is going strong as we are working on sterilizing the feral cat population of Del Rio & Val Verde County. Click here for flyer
Dates for the next Low Cost Spay and Neuter Clinic will be announced when we know more.
Come to our meeting on June 25. Become a member for only $10 a year and help volunteer for some of these educational programs and events! Under 18 years of age? Junior memberships are $5 a year, with a signed parental permission form.
