Here is a pony being ridden in his new foster home. He was taken in about 8 years ago. They were called the Welsch Mountain Ponies and none of them were rideable or touchable. Thanks to this loving adoption home this pony is well trained and healthy and happy now!
TBAR is wishing you and yours a great Independence Day! Please remember that pets are often frightened by fireworks, so keep them safe today!
This photo is of our two week old puppies, Moose and Eddie, who are currently being bottle fed by one of our foster homes. They will both be available for adoption in four weeks. If you or anyone you know are interested in giving a forever home to a Corgy mix puppy you’ll want to get your application in now so we can have you approved and ready!

TBAR Selected as Semi-Finalist for Community Program Improvement Funding
Vote for TBAR to reunite them with Ty Pennington!
Washington, Texas — True Blue Animal Rescue (TBAR) has been chosen as one of 50 semi-finalists in the Ultimate Neighborhood Give Back Challenge hosted by Guaranteed Rate! This is a contest that will award five runner-up prizes of up to $10,000 for their community project, and one Grand Prize Winner will get $50,000 for their Community Project AND help for a day from Ty Pennington!
You may remember that Ty Pennington has helped TBAR in the past – back in 2005 he brought his team from Extreme Makeover: Home Edition to build a new home for the DeAeth family. When Ty, EMHE, and the Community made-over the DeAeth home they increased the capacity that TBAR had for saving animals, and allowed them to make a bigger impact in the area. Since then TBAR has helped save and rehome thousands of animals (including dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, and more).
In the past five years TBAR has branched out in their efforts to decrease animal abuse by starting the Animals Bridge Love and Education (ABLE). These camps allow hands-on experience to develop compassion and empathy in children toward animals to make them better pet owners and future advocates for animals and people. The programs under ABLE include Foster Family Fun Days, Field Trips, Scout Troop Days, Church Groups Days, and Community Service Volunteering.
In order to continue to expand this program we need to make some improvements, including air conditioning and an accessible bathroom in the classroom area, new fencing, and better walking paths. Being one of the six finalists in this competition will allow us to make some of these improvements so we can reach more children and help even more animals than ever before.
Please vote for TBAR by CLICKING HERE and vote for “Educational and therapeutic equine program improvements – Washington, TX”! Don’t forget to share this link with everyone you know so we can advance our animal education program in the Brazos Valley!
This Round 2 of voting closes on July 8th, and the 6 finalists will be announced on July 15.

Bailey is a one year old Labrador mix and currently weighs about 60 lbs. She and her other buddies were saved from a field in Brenham, TX. She is playful, energetic and an avid retriever. Bailey loves to cuddle up on the couch with her favorite person when it’s time to relax inside, but when it’s playtime, she is ready for a friendly game of fetch in the backyard! Her favorite snack…mini marshmallows! Bailey would do well in a family environment with older children (or children that can understand a larger dog). Her favorite thing in the summer is to play in the sprinkler, if you have a pool or pond – even better. Bailey loves to play hide-n-seek and fetch; she loves to sleep in bed and snuggle with you too. Bailey also enjoys being worked outside with a retriever toy. She will be the perfect, loving companion for the right family. Bailey understands basic commands like “sit” “stay” and “in” when it’s time to go in her crate for resting. She knows potty time is reserved for outdoors and she’s beyond ready for a family to take her home for a sleepover! Won’t you give this sweet girl her chance at a forever home?

Have fun this summer, however you like it – we won’t judge!
Patrick was found on the streets of Bellville with his buddy, Roxie. These two were starving, homeless and in need of veterinary care. True Blue Animal Rescue took them into their foster program and sent them straight to the vet to for a full exam, deworming and vaccinations.
Patrick thrived in his foster home with his dog and cat siblings. He loved chewing his toys while laying in his doggie bed or running around the yard playing with his doggie friend, Jack.
Patrick needed a few months to regain weight and adjust to being part of a family, but he was finally ready to find his forever home. It didn’t take long for someone to meet Patrick and fall head-over-heels for this sweet little boy. Now, Patrick has his own family and will even have a new fur-brother to play with in his big back yard during the day before it’s time to come in for bedtime.
