Foster

For how long will I have a foster dog?

We need foster homes from 2-10 weeks depending on the dog’s needs. Newborn puppies will need a foster home for about 10 weeks; whereas a dog recovering from a surgery may need 2-3 weeks. Each dog’s situation is unique, and their fostering needs will be as well.

What dogs are available to foster?

he dogs in the foster program are puppies under six months, everything from single pups, pairs all the way up to large litters. We have moms with nursing pups who need time to nurse and raise their puppies. And we also have older dogs in need of extra TLC before or after surgery or just needing a little recovery time before continuing on their journey to their forever home.

What is the difference between Fostering and Hosting?

Our Foster program is for very young puppies, sometimes with their moms; and older dogs that need extra TLC after surgery or illness. Foster periods vary but range from 2 to 10 weeks while we work to get these fosters ready for adoption.

Our Hosting program (also known as “Sleepovers”) is for healthy dogs who are already available for adoption and the Host period is one weekend, or a week during our special holiday host events.
