Become a Foster

Fostering means taking a dog into your home and treating them as your own pet for a temporary time period. As a foster, you get to select your foster dog in regards to age, breed, size, gender, temperament, etc. 

Our rescue will temporarily provide you with supplies including food, crate, toys, etc. The rescue covers the cost of all medical care for the foster dogs. 

The average time for fostering is approximately 3 weeks. Some dogs get adopted in as little as 5 days. Some take a month or more depending on multiple  factors.

We can’t save dogs without YOU!

Fostering highly increases an animal’s chance of getting adopted. Animals in foster care tend to be better socialized and better adjusted to living as a pet. It also helps potential adopters to see what a great personality the animal has in a home setting. 

Some animals are not ready to be adopted immediately. In addition to needing extra love and care, they have to learn to trust people and live in a human environment. Foster parents help these animals by providing a temporary home until the animal is ready for adoption. 

YOU feel good! Your shelter or rescue group helps more animals and your foster pet is happy, healthy and well-socialized. Talk about a win-win-win!!

When I started fostering I didn’t know how much I would fall in love with it!

Seeing a dog come from being broken down and afraid, to a tail wagging happy dog in their forever home, is so rewarding. Not only knowing you helped save that dog but also opening a kennel up in the shelter for another dog.

Fostering is all you could ever think of: exciting, fun, rewarding and over all a great time! It can be sad when you get so attached but seeing them thrive is the most unforgettable feeling!
