The 2018 El Rey Fido & the Royal Court
This year’s El Rey Fido fundraising competition was a close and exciting one! We are overjoyed by the involvement of all our canine contestants and their human companions. In total, all 2018 participants raised over $50,000 for the dogs and cats at the San Antonio Humane Society! Pictured here is our 2018 El Rey Fido XVI, Jerry Rosenthal (far right) and Royal Court: Princess of the Food Bowl, Alexandra Hamilton; Duchess of the Chew Toy, Ellie Wheeler; Duke of the Fire Hydrant, Sam; Knight of the Royal Court, Squish.
We are proud to partner with Fun Academy Motion Pictures and share the story of one dog who made a world of difference. YOU can make a difference in the lives of OUR pets by catching this amazing story in theaters! A portion of the proceeds goes towards benefiting our dogs and cats.

Ambassador Pets
The San Antonio Humane Society is a no kill shelter that does not euthanize for space. As a result, any dog or cat can reside at the SAHS until they are adopted. Ambassador pets have a raised adoption fee that helps lend a paw to other pets looking for a forever home. What makes an Ambassador pet? An Ambassador pet can include any highly adoptable dog or cat of any age or breed.
