About DACHSHUND RESCUE OF HOUSTON INC

Dachshund Rescue of Houston (DROH) is an entirely volunteer-run 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Friendswood, TX, that has been rescuing dachshunds since 1999. The organization operates through a network of foster homes and focuses on veterinary care, rehabilitation, and permanent placements for dachshunds that would otherwise face euthanasia or prolonged shelter stays. DROH maintains a standardized medical intake for every dog (spay/neuter, heartworm testing/treatment, core vaccinations, fecal/parasite control and dental care when needed) and conducts home checks and follow-up for adopters. In recent years the group has expanded fundraising and community outreach (including local events and giveback fundraisers) to increase its capacity to pull, vet, and rehome dogs in the greater Houston area.

Notable achievements

Continuous rescue operations since 1999

DROH has operated a dachshund-specific rescue program since 1999, using a foster-based model to place hundreds of dachshunds into permanent homes over multiple decades.

All-volunteer governance and zero paid executive compensation

The organization is run entirely by volunteers with no paid executive staff; key officers report no compensation on recent tax filings, allowing donations to be directed toward veterinary care and program services.

Significant fundraising growth (FY 2023–2024)

Fundraising and contributions increased materially between 2023 and 2024, enabling a larger program budget and greater capacity for medical care and rehoming services.
