This is Phoebe and her adopter. She’s the first of our husky / aussie mix pups to find her forever home. Her adoptive family saw her at the chili cookoff event and fell in love. Since they met her at Independence Harley Davidson her new name is going to be Harley!
Our newest rescue, Chip, is telling his story today! Thank you to everyone who stepped up to save him, and let’s share his story so we can get him a forever home soon!
Hi my name is Chip. My mom was sick. Sometimes she forgot to feed me.But I love her so much and always waged my tail when I saw her. But my mom left and went to heaven. I miss her very much. My brother went with her too. I think he was weaker than me and couldn’t make it without food. I miss him very much too. He was my other half.
When the police found me, there were discussions about putting my down. Thank God, my friend came over and saved me. She took me home, even though she could have gotten in a lot of trouble. She took me to the nice people at True Blue Animal Rescue as soon as she could get me a spot! I was a little nervous at first. But these people are really nice, and my food bowl is always full.
There are a lot of dogs here and I get a lot of playtime, but I really wish I had a home of my own again. Can you please share my picture and my story and find me someone to love again?
How many of you love yellow labs? The Pet of the Week is that yellow Lab for you. You will not be able to resist her beautiful face. She is about a year old. Crate trained and house broken. Spayed and vaccinated. She’s very friendly, walks well on a leash, loves to play fetch and gets along with other dogs. Great with kids too. She was on her last days at the Brenham Shelter so we transferred her to K’s Mutt Hut to board till she found a home. Thanks to the Brenham Shelter for letting us know about her and to all the people who donated to pay for her board till she found a home. Sometimes it takes a village to save a dog.T-BAR is a no-kill rescue. Not only do we like having our animals adopted out, we also are in dire need of foster homes. That way we can help more animals out there, who are in perilous times alone on the streets. Please save a life by adopting a pet, instead of buying a pet and please have all your pets spayed and neutered. It is the right thing to do. If you are interested on where you can help or to look at all that is available to either adopt or foster, please go to www.t-bar.org and see all the animals that deserve a second chance and fulfilled life full of love, email [email protected] or call (936)878-2349 and one of our volunteers will get back to you as soon as possible. Adoption Fee: Please email [email protected] for adoption fee! Adoption fee includes neuter or spay, up to date vaccinations, heartworm tested if old enough or started on heartworm prevention as a puppy, deworming and a one year TBAR membership.
True Blue Animal Rescue, with the help of the Independence Harley Davidson dealership in College Station, hosted the Iron Horses Chili Cook off on January 24, 2015, to help raise money for their mission of saving hooves, paws and claws. After three days of solid rain the sky finally decided to cut the Brazos Valley a break and the event went off to be a hit.
TBAR volunteers had to quickly regroup once the field we normally use for the cook off was found to be flooded and too muddy. With some fast thinking from Heather Beran the event started on-time with TBAR setting up the silent auction, raffle table, sales area and the dogs that were up for adoption. New things added this year were the kissing booth featuring TBARS’ favorite pup, Stumpy (sometimes called Moose) with our latest volunteer, Kalvin Doyle. We also had wonderful face painting done by volunteer Ellen Spahni! While the cook off was underway TV station KBTX came out and spoke to TBAR president and founder, Melanie Deaeth.
Thanks to many donations the sales table was also a hit selling a number of dog beds, collars and cute dog and cat outfits. While the event helps raise money, it is also a great time to meet potential new volunteers, new fosters or just get the message out about what the TBAR mission is all about.
Not only that but people could eat chili or buy the BBQ sandwiches that TBAR was also selling to raise funds for animals in need. Wonderful live music was provided by the band Leannasaurus Rex, that is a TBAR favorite to have playing. Thanks to all the TBAR volunteers, new and old, this year’s chili cook off was a smashing success. We want to thank all of the people that help us make this happen and thank those who showed up to help support our cause by opening your wallets and hearts.
Everyone’s hard work and time will go a long way for many animals in our care. We hope to see you all again next year.
Cartier is a beautiful 3 year old sorrel mare. She was born healthy two months after seizure of 27 badly malnourished horses, including some pregnant mares. Cartier is the spitting image of her mom. She has been started under saddle and is the perfect age to receive further training to reach her true potential in her forever home. At this age she can be easily trained for any type of riding someone would want. Email [email protected] for more information. Please share till Cartier finds a home!
Mark your calendar for our Annual chili cookoff sponsored by Independence Harley Davidson. This event it a lot of fun! Lots of chili to eat, BBQ sandwiches, animals on site and an area for kids.

Update on Moonshine! This is the horse who was untouchable when he came to us. Now after training at Tbar and a month with Juan Vendrell of TC Ranch Ventures he’s in a new home and will be adopted soon! His new Mom got him a saddle and he’s doing great with that! Hooray for Moonshine!
We are sharing a new success story today! Here is Holly and Joy with their new family! Hooray for these sweet Tbar puppies and their lucky new family.
This weeks Success Story is Tina. and it’s a Christmas Blessing.
Tina’s New Mom sent this message:
Tina had a long talk with Santa this year.
She said she really wanted to stay in her foster home forever.
Santa couldn’t resist those eyes... and the snuggles every evening by the fire. So Santa said, “Come stay with me”.
Along with her BFF Jenny, who was also adopted from TBAR, her job will be to help Santa relax after a hard day’s work in the toy shop.
The second picture is Tina with her entire family. Her Dad plays Santa every weekend of Dec each year. Her Mom takes the pictures and all proceeds from their efforts go to True Blue Animal Rescue so more animals can be saved the following year. Her family is the Taylor Family and they are a blessing to rescue animals and especially to True Blue Animal Rescue!
