Hearts & Bones Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Dallas, Texas and New York. Our mission is to build a nationwide network of fosters, volunteers, rescue partners and adopters in an effort to save the lives of thousands of shelter dogs in need and unite them with loving forever families. As a foster-based rescue, we focus on providing all of our dogs with secure and loving foster homes while they wait for their forever families.
ABOUT
OUR STORY
Hearts & Bones was founded in 2017 by Whitney Fang and Anna Blumberg, who met in 2012 through their mutual love of animals. Through the experiences of fostering, volunteering, and visiting shelters across the country over the years, they developed a deep understanding of the incredible importance of dog rescue and adoption advocacy. Hearts & Bones is the realization of their dream to bring people together across the country to rescue dogs in need and find their forever homes.
Why the "Hearts & Bones" name? Rescue requires not only the heart - the compassion and love - for the animals that are in need, but also the bones - the grit, strength and persistence to rescue these dogs from their former lives and give them a second chance at a great forever family.

WHERE WE ARE
TEXAS
NYC
Our rescue operations are based in Dallas, Texas where the number of stray and unwanted dogs is incredibly high - shelters there will often take in over 100 animals in a single day, and Texas has one of the highest euthanasia rates in the country. We then transport our dogs to our adoptions base in New York City, where there are an incredible number of people looking to adopt and our pups have a much better chance of finding a forever home. We're always looking for more fosters in both areas, and consider adoption applications from anywhere within a few hours drive of NYC.
