The people who show up for HLCR boots on the ground have always been at the center of our rescue. This is the story of one long-standing volunteer and a decade of dedication to the dogs who need it most.

Marty can't find his favorite pink bunny toy in the grass anymore. If the grass gets any higher we're going to lose him too. Can you help?
HLCR is looking for a few good volunteers who are not afraid of a little Texas sun, a weed eater, and giving something back. You'll get fresh air, exercise, and the sincere gratitude of a bunch of dogs who can't work a lawnmower but appreciate the effort tremendously.
Highland Lakes Canine Rescue has 15 acres, dog play yards, and walking trails that need regular attention and so we really need some people to help out every couple of weeks. We work after 5pm, so the dogs are inside resting while you build character and, let's be honest, a solid tan. Our schedule is flexible though. Volunteering with us also comes with all the free slobbery kiss you could ever need.

Recently, volunteers took our Pearl to visit residents at Arbor House, and the photos speak for themselves. There is something quietly extraordinary about this dog and the way she moves through the world, offering comfort and companionship with ease.
Pearl has been with HLCR since July 24th, 2025. That is over 8 months of waiting patiently for her family to find her. In that time, she has proven herself to be gentle with children, kind to other dogs, calm on a leash, easy in the car, and genuinely wonderful company. She does not ask for much. She just gives…

In honor of Rick Edwards Day of Service, we had the absolute joy of welcoming students and their incredible teacher from Marble Falls High School's Special Education program. These remarkable young people rolled up their sleeves and got straight to work scrubbing and cleaning dog toys, decorating kennel cards to help our pups shine their brightest for potential adopters, and stuffing Kongs to keep our furry residents happy and enriched.
Watching them pour their hearts into every single task was a reminder of what community truly looks like. Their kindness, enthusiasm, and genuine compassion for our animals made this day one to remember.
To the students and their wonderful teachers: thank you. Thank you for choosing to spend your time with us, for the care you brought to every dog toy and every kennel card, and for…
