About Teeny's Friends

We provide toys for needy dogs! At Teeny's Friends our goal is to make sure that no dog ever has to go without the simple pleasure of chasing a ball or snuggling a plushie. Our mission was inspired by Teeny, my own rescue dog & our mascot. We raise toys through monthly toy drives & the sale of our One For One toy (when you buy one, we donate one). The toys we raise are then donated to rescue groups, animal shelters, and families in low income neighborhoods. Read on to learn how you can help us help needy dogs!

Strut Your Mutt & April Dog Toy Drive

This weekend marked both the beginning of our April dog toy drive and the Strut Your Mutt Dog Show & Spring Rescue Bazaar. It also marked the beginning of 95 degree and up weekends here in Austin, which was terrible timing as the dog show was outdoors. Thank goodness for sunscreen!

Our April dog toy drive at Mud Puppies officially kicked off on Saturday morning. The store was even cuter than I imagined! Our bin will be there until Saturday, April 23rd and the donated toys will benefit Austin Dog Rescue, so if you are in the area and are able please stop by & donate to this great cause!


On Sunday we had a booth at Strut Your Mutt. The event was at the Humane Society of Williamson County - a previous toy drive host AND beneficiary - who we love and were happy to help support. There were tons of pet related vendors there, some great food, training demonstrations, and even a dog show. We were there selling our toys, promoting Virtual Petwork, and raising awareness in general. It was really fun, but 6+ hours in the hot sun makes for a LONG day and we all crashed when we got home! Below are some pics of our booth as well as some of the kind people who bought our one-for-one toy. Thank you so much to everyone who came out and supported us!
