A Far-Away Foster Match for a NJ Family

A Far-Away Foster Match for a NJ Family

One door closes, and another door opens. Fostering made this incredible rescue story possible! At the same time that this New York family found out their dog was diagnosed with terminal cancer, Jones was entering foster care in Alabama after a long stay in the shelter. “Little did anyone know this was beginning of his long journey to us! […]. When I look back at the synchronicity of our stories and how many people were involved to get our boy home I am still amazed and I can’t help but say it was ‘meant to be!’ Thanks to Foster Dogs’ willingness to look beyond the immediate obstacle of distance, Jones the formerly unwanted dog is finally home and Beatrice is grieving no longer.”

Dogs (and Cats!) Needing Foster Homes Now

Right now, during the COVID-19 crisis, Foster Dogs’ priority is on getting dogs into homes around the area who need placement, rather than helping foster applicants find a “perfect fit.” Here’s what that means: being flexible on your parameters including: dog’s house-training skills / dog’s size / shedding and allergies / your current dog’s ideal best-bud / your ability to help with training / this could be a while - duration flexibility! We cannot accomodate specific requests at this time, so please do what you can while remaining SAFE, for you and for the animals!
