Thanks to our amazing supporters, Let Love Live (LLL) is one of very few organizations able to focus on rescuing medically challenged and heartworm positive dogs. We offer a 200 acre sanctuary to the most at risk dogs in Titus County, Texas and then once healthy, transport them to our foster community in Minnesota until they are adopted.
When you commit to adopt from us, we commit to providing you with long term support offered by our team, network of pet care professionals and community of like minded, pet loving peers!
Thanks to our Rescue Bellies partnership with Natural Rapport, they graciously donate their digestive supplements to our rescue each month, providing critical support to our dogs who endure frequent stress which can severely affect their digestive system.
Texas is struggling with a severe overpopulation of sick, abused and otherwise forgotten dogs. Every week our team transports healthy dogs from our Texas sanctuary to our Minnesota pet center where adopters, fosters and rescue partners welcome them with open arms!

Fostering is an experience you’ll never forget! We’re so grateful to have such an amazing team of passionate pet lovers.
"Fostering has it's challenges but I would't change a thing. Every dog has touched my life one way or another, including Charlie who I couldn't bear to let go!"
Foster & Adopter
"I love fostering so dogs that have been dealt a bad hand can learn what it's like to live in a loving home where they can let their guards down and just be a dog."
A Family of Fosters
"We love fostering because there is so much happening we cannot do anything about but we CAN give these dogs a loving place to call home until they find theirs."
Our foster families share the responsibility of caring for our dogs. They provide a safe, loving space in their homes and our staff provides transition and training guidance, schedules preventative care and manages unexpected medical treatments. Thanks to our partnership with Mighty Paw, our foster dogs each receive Yak Chews to help both the foster and foster dog adjust to their new living arrangements.
Becoming a foster parent is simple! Let us know you’d like to foster by --> filling out our quick form and we’ll reach out to discuss pets that match your preferences and discuss transport details. Our only requirements are that you must be at least 18 years old and be able to provide daily basic care (food, water, space in your home, exercise, and basic manners).
While it is your responsibility to communicate regularly with us about your foster pet’s needs, our team manages the scheduling of all preventative treatments and we cover the costs of all veterinary care, including emergency medical expenses.
Each week our team will notify all foster families of pets ready to relocate from the Texas Sanctuary to a home in Minnesota. We welcome you to select the pet(s) you wish to foster based on your own needs and preferences. However, keep in mind we ask all foster parents to be flexible and consider prioritizing pets in which fostering will have the greatest impact on their wellbeing.
Be honest and upfront with our team if you have length of stay limitations as our goal is to make sure your foster experience is enjoyable so that you continue opening your home to pets long term with us. In general, the length of a fostering period varies depending on the pet’s needs and amount of adoption content such as pet personality, biography details, photos and videos taken you provide to us about your foster pet.
Of course! We love seeing our pets get adopted by loving families! You will still need to complete the necessary adoption process so we can legally transfer ownership to you and we hope that once your pet is settled, you continue to foster with us!
Making an IMPACT one heart at a time.
Low adopter interest plus cost and length of treatment puts heartworm positive dogs at the highest risk for unnecessary euthanasia in southern states. Being one of few pet welfare organizations that look beyond medical conditions when rescuing dogs in need… and thanks to our amazing community of Save a Heart Donors, we are able to make a huge impact for these dogs one heart at a time! Here’s a few of our Save a Heart dogs!
This sweet angel is very affectionate and one of the sanctuary staff's favorites!
Mr Boo is a senior pup with so much love to give to his new family!
Caramel is a stunning, lovely lady who enjoys living a life full of smiles, gentle pets and lots of treats!
