Fosters truly are the frontline heroes for these dogs, playing a vital role in saving lives! A foster home provides a temporary haven for dogs while they await their forever families. Foster families offer shelter, food, care, love, and guidance, ensuring these animals feel safe and cherished. The number of dogs we can rescue depends entirely on the compassionate individuals willing to open their homes and hearts. For many of these animals, this will be their first experience as beloved family pets. You are their beacon of hope, and your contribution is invaluable—never underestimate the profound impact you have on their lives!
The only way that we can save dogs is with the help of foster homes. Being a foster family has rewards beyond the essential value of helping a pet in need find a new home. For some, it is a chance to have an dog companion without making a lifetime commitment, or to try new companions for an existing pet. Foster Care is critical to our rescue efforts, the more homes we have, the more dogs we can save. Becoming a foster family is a very rewarding experience, and can be a lot of fun. There are often tears shed when a foster finally finds a home of their own, but knowing you have saved a life and opened up space to save another is truly rewarding.
Fosters will keep dogs an average of 4-8 weeks. Some pets need more time because of age, illness, injury, or behavior issues. Your time commitment will be discussed up-front before you agree to foster the pet, but most foster families keep the dog until the dog gets adopted.
