Second chances start with H.A.R.T.

We are a 501(c)(3) not for profit animal rescue based in Burleson County, Texas. While our rescue operations and foster homes are primarily located in Central Texas, we proudly transport and place pets with adopters across much of the United States and even Canada.

Browse our listings to see our currently adoptable pets—your future best friend might already be waiting!
Don’t see exactly who you’re looking for? We often have animals not yet listed, so feel free to fill out an adoption application and tell us what you’re hoping to find.

Our mission is simple: to connect loving animals with loving homes. Whether you’re local or across the country, we’re happy to guide you every step of the way in finding the perfect rescue pet to welcome into your family.

Adopting is one of the best things you can do.

When you adopt, you’re not just giving a deserving animal a home.

You’re also reducing the demand for puppy mills and other industrial-scale breeding operations that put profit before animal welfare.

You’re helping us make room for more animals in need.

What Our Adopters Are Saying…

“Adopting from HART was the best thing I ever did! I saw Jelly's picture, I knew I had to adopt her! She had found her furever home! They did everything and transported her to her new home just a few days later!

Everyone at HART works hard and gives the animals so much love and care! They make sure each and every animal goes to a safe and loving home. I highly recommend HART!
