Fostering

​Fosters are one of our greatest needs. Having fosters available allows us to accept more dogs from animal control facilities into our program. Our fosters and volunteers also play a key role in transporting dogs to appointments and adoption events, observing their temperaments and habits. ​We have many different dogs of a variety of sizes and breeds. ​While many foster homes become attached to the dog(s) they foster, most remember that for every dog that gets adopted, there is another one waiting in a shelter for a space in their home.

Dog Adventure Days

Dog adventures are a great way for adoptable dogs to get some extra special one-on-one time with humans

They are really easy to do:
  • Complete a volunteer application
  • Schedule a date and time to pick up with our coordinator
  • Spoil them with attention - like a nice walk, a special snack (like a puppacino), cozy couch to nap on, etc.
  • No meeting other animals as this is meant to be a stress-free day for the dogs 
  • Document your special day so we can show potential adopters how awesome the dog is
