Lone Start to North Star Rescue Relief Program logo

Since the rescue was formed in 2010, we have been committed to helping local animals and their people. True to our mission, we will always do our best to assist our fellow animal welfare advocates and the animals they so dutifully serve, no matter their location.

The Lone Star to North Star Rescue Relief Program™ focuses on making a significant long-term impact in Texas, a state where even healthy and behaviorally sound animals are at risk and where over 114,000 pets were euthanized this past year. The transporting of these animals is a cause we deeply care about.

Adopt

When you adopt, you save a loving animal by making them part of your family and open up space for another animal who might desperately need it.

Foster

Fostering is a rewarding way to make a difference in an animal’s life. Fosters provide a temporary, safe environment for a pet in need at no cost to you.
