Description Founded in 1997, Fuzzy Friends Rescue is Waco's largest and oldest no-kill rescue. We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) animal welfare organization that cares for homeless and unwanted animals in a life-care environment. We never euthanize an animal to make room for another, and we care for all those we take in until they are adopted.

We had a great experience adopting Jolee(Cookie). Everyone was so nice to work with. We especially enjoyed Sandra, Terry and Betsy!! Y'all are the best. We can tell how much y'all love and care for the doggos by how much they love y'all. Great experience!!

The adoption fees are outrageous. I was so excited to adopt until I saw the price. I can see maybe 100/150 for adoption but $400+ is more than a car payment. I hope these animals find good homes, not hopeful with the reviews I've read so far.

About 6 years ago Fuzzy Friends took in a homeless dog in our city when our local shelter would not and found him a forever home. I was so very grateful! I was asked by them to write about his story which was posted on their website. In December, I submitted an adoption application for a puppy. About two weeks later I received a phone call asking if I currently have a dog. My answer was yes, I had to put down (due to cancer) her companion. She is very lonely now. I was asked by Fuzzy Friends that "am I aware that this is a puppy"? I am 62 years old, my husband is retired. We live on 40 acres, I walk my dog constantly, on a leash, never do I let her off the leash.(hawks and coyotes). I explained that to her. Now over a month later, I have heard NOTHING. I feel like I was denied because of my age and due to the fact I don't live in Waco. I would welcome the chance for them to visit my home, call my vet and I can provide references. The dog I tried to adopt is still available for adoption and has been at the shelter since October 2023! But yet they "boast" about all the animals that found homes! But don't have the decency to contact you when you are obviously denied. Exactly what is their criteria? Maybe they should post that before you get your hopes up! I have lost all respect for Fuzzy Friends Rescue.

One of, if not the best, rescues in Texas. I have gotten 2 dogs from them, Athena and River and they both are amazing dogs and in great health. Unlike some animal shelthers where people don't really care about their jobs, all of their staff is amazing people and truly love their animals!

Impossible to adopt here. They claim they want to save these dogs lives but don't approve ANYONE. They are super nice when you come in, and play it off like, "wow you will be a great fit" just to deny you. Then they give you ZERO reason for denial. Absolute joke of a "rescue" they run here.

So slow on checking for approval with the applications. Told us we had a 5 day waiting process and on the fifth day it’s still in a huge stack of unreviewed applications. The dog we wanted was already adopted before they got to ours because someone was before us in the supposed “stack of applications”. It shouldn’t take 5 days to review applications and they need to be more orderly and neat so they don’t make the mistake of having someone fill out an application for a dog that already has one. Every applicant should be reviewed before immediately adopting it out. I feel in love with this dog and was devastated to find out she was already given away due to poor management of applications. Don’t come here if you’re looking to find an animal in a timely manner or if you want honesty about applications on their animals.
