K9 Savior Squad

The K9 Savior Squad is an extension of our Canine Foster program. It is specifically geared towards larger dogs and behavioral (non-aggressive) dogs. With this program, anyone who signs up will receive perks, exclusive to the other foster categories, to thank them for taking on our larger and more challenging canine friends. If you are interested in participating in this program, fill out the foster application and under the “Behavioral” section, write ‘K9 Savior Squad’ so that we know you are interested! Large dogs need saving too, why not be the one to offer them a temporary home? Sign up today!

Foster Express Program

The Foster Express Program is a way to provide animals that have been staying at the shelter for long periods of time, a short-term break from shelter life. This means a 3-4 day foster commitment on your part, hence the “express” nature of it! This program also helps staff gain a better understanding of how the animal(s) will behave in a home setting. The Foster Express Program is a great way to get your feet wet in terms of fostering and provide love and care for our amazing animals!

*This program is for dogs, if interested in fostering cats please fill out the general foster application above.
