Texas Cattle Dog Rescue

Texas Cattle Dog Rescue rescue consists of a few founding members and a number of fosters and volunteers across Texas. We are a small, but dedicated group that focuses on saving as many Australian Cattle Dogs (heelers) as possible as well as educating the public about the breed. Our mission is to rescue the shocking number of heelers euthanized in shelters. We rescue heelers from the city and county shelters and on the streets throughout Texas. We match each rescued dog with a forever home where he/she will be loved, cared for, and fully enjoyed and appreciated. Educating current and future owners is a key focus. We believe pets should be spayed and neutered to reduce pet over population and all dogs we place are fixed. Founded in 2009, we've rescued more than 300 dogs. We're an all volunteer, nonprofit 501(c)(3) animal welfare organization.

Educate Our State

Educate Our State is a grassroots, parent-led organization educating and uniting Californians to advocate for systemic change that will provide all students with a high quality education. We started in San Francisco in 2010 with 6 public school moms facing a funding crisis. Today we are 50,000 strong all across California. Visit our website (www.EducateOurState.org) and join us! California is falling drastically behind in every educational measure for student success including: test scores, dropout rates, funding per pupil, and teacher-student ratios. California is failing its children; the time for change is now. The current public education system in California is broken. We believe the fundamental building blocks outlined below are essential for an effective, high-quality K-12 education. Superior Educators: Highly effective, inspirational teachers, principals and staff: Attracting top graduates to teaching Assessments of staff based on student outcomes, not just years of service Provide teacher professional development and training Logical, Sufficient and Stable Education Funding: Logical and fair funding based on the students' needs, not where they live Locally-controlled funding with transparency and accountability Enough money for schools based on calculations by education experts Stable funding schools can count on, without yearly changes Engaging and Stimulating Instruction and Curriculum: Standards-based instruction that engages students Teaching skills necessary for success in the 21st century workplace Useful and timely student assessments
