The Leagues of Dallas

Dogs Matter is a nonprofit organization based in Dallas, TX, that offers free temporary foster care placement and supportive services for dogs of addicts and alcoholics seeking substance abuse treatment and transitioning into recovery. Their mission is to provide a safe and healthy environment for these dogs, ensuring their welfare and reuniting them with their owners once they have completed treatment and are ready to be responsible dog owners again. With a focus on the mental health benefits of companion animals, Dogs Matter recognizes the positive impact that dogs can have on individuals managing addiction. They aim to reduce loneliness, create social opportunities, lower blood pressure, and provide a sense of purpose in seemingly hopeless situations. Through their 12-month Aftercare Program, Dogs Matter helps clients and their dogs remain together in a safe and healthy environment while staying clean and sober. Their ultimate goal is to become a national model, extending their services to help those seeking treatment and in need of a healthy place for their dog.Generated from the website
