After the Harvey floods in 2017, watching the Astros win the World Series was a huge lift for everyone in Houston. It was so great to have something to celebrate, even for people who don’t normally care about baseball.
In the animal rescue community, organizations have been especially grateful to Astros pitcher Lance McCullers, Jr., because he and his wife Kara use the Lance McCullers Jr. Foundation to promote pet adoptions, raise awareness for animal rescue, and support animal transport to get animals out of shelters and into other parts of the country where they can be adopted.
Which is why Lance and Kara McCullers and a lot of press were at today’s transport. Ours is one of the organizations who has benefitted from the Foundation’s generosity.

And Dooney knows that Kara McCullers has a beautiful heart.
We are selfishly glad this Tampa couple makes their home in Houston, but they are a miracle for pets in need everywhere.
