Fosters are what make our organization go, go, go! The more fosters we have, the more pups we can welcome into safe, loving environments before they are ready to be adopted into permanent, forever homes.
The LSAR Foster Program is simple: We supply the pet, just add food, shelter and love! We will take care of all approved veterinary costs (including medications) for your LSAR foster pet. We just ask you treat them like one of your own; give them food/water, a soft, safe place to lay their head, and lots of love.
You do not have to be a dog whisperer to apply! No degree or special training is required. But make no mistake, fosters are indeed very special people! Fosters must be loving, patient, giving and dedicated. If this sounds like you, we'd be delighted to have you on our team!
Please note: A complete (and approved) application, as well as a home visit are required to join the LSAR Foster Program. We are currently "recruiting" fosters within our service area only. Please apply to foster if you currently reside within Texas or Oklahoma.

KNOX
Stats: puppy, male
Location: TX
Intake: 05/29/2023
Adoption Fee: TBD
On Memorial Day we received an urgent message regarding a puppy whose leg had been completely ripped off.
We weren’t sure what had happened, but we knew this puppy needed help ASAP. We met the owners surrendering him at the emergency vet and sure enough, his front leg was gone from the elbow down. He had exposed bone and tissue that was already infected. It was stated that the neighbors dog may have attacked him, but the event was not witnessed.
The emergency clinic got him cleaned up and on pain meds and antibiotics. The next morning, we got his full amputation scheduled for June 1.
We can’t imagine the trauma Knox has experienced and the pain he was in, but he has shown incredible resilience and a wonderful personality through it all. We can’t wait to get this sweet little boy pain free and on his way to a happy, full life.
Welcome to LSAR Knox!
