CRITICAL NEED

Volunteers willing to foster a rescued dog in their home are the foundation of our rescue. If you can open your heart and home to a rescue, consider The Foster Experience.

Heartfelt words from our RESCUE HEROES

“This amazing group of people give much of their personal time so our rescues can find loving forever homes. Seeing a dog come in frail, scared and in need of medical and emotional care and then seeing them leave with confidence, in good health and a smile on their face is worth its weight in GOLD!”

— Volunteer Ellen Steiger
