Our shelter is experiencing an uptick in stray dog intakes, and we need fosters to help create space for those still arriving.

We have wonderful large dogs (30+ lbs.) who just need a break from the kennel—a calm home where they can decompress and get ready for adoption.

Even a short-term foster can make a life-saving difference.

We’ll support you every step of the way. All adult dogs receive a wellness exam before foster, are up to date on their vaccines and flea/tick preventative, and we provide food, a leash, collar, and basic supplies (as available).

Interested in helping? Email us with:

• Max size/weight you can foster
• Any breed preferences or restrictions
• Current pets in your home
• Household members/ages
• If you’re open to a medical foster
• A specific dog name or ID (if you have one in mind)

If you’d like to meet them first, you’re welcome to visit daily from 11 am – 5 pm to walk through our dog kennels and cat areas.

I’M READY TO FOSTER!
