Foster a Rescue

Fostering is
  FREE and FUN! 


We not only provide you with everything you need to take care of one of our rescues, but the experience is SO fulfilling. By placing one animal into a foster home, you allow us to save another. We are always in need of foster parents.

Hilde

"Here are a few pics of our girl she is a little messed up but this is her typical state!!! She is a love. She weighs at last vet visit about 68lbs. extremely healthy and very active, she can run forever! She loves her Chargers whenever there was a game on she would have her Charger T shirt on with her football and every time someone would jump up and yell touch down she grabs her ball and starts running around like a mad dog, she is so much fun and extremely intelligent. She knows all of her commands by simple hand signals. As you can tell she has become part of the family or maybe we have become part of her family!!! Again you are welcome over anytime, Jeannette and I would like to make a donation so maybe Jeannette can meet you somewhere and bring Hilde." Best Regards Frank Evaro

Kanga

"Yeah she has definitely grown! She does great with both dogs from friends and family that come to the house as well as other dogs at the park! We will keep you updated on how she does the rest of the time in puppy school as well as how much she grows along the way: ) Good luck with your new rescues!" Andrea

I am amazed at how much of of a puppy she still is. Maybe she is younger then we thought? Attached are a couple of pictures of her. We often take her to the dog park and dog beach.

"I have been wanting to send you this note for a long time - but the problem is, I never run out of wonderful things to say about Max and the message gets too long. I've enclosed a couple of pictures of him. As you can see, he made it on the bed, and his favorite thing in the world is a ball - he has that Jack Russell obsession about it. Do you remember that first day that we met him and I brought a blue ball for him, he showed as little interest in that ball as he did us, that day! Scott and I never imagined what we were getting into when we added Max to our small family. We just thought we were bringing home a little doggy companion that we could enjoy. How could we ever have known how very special he would become within a very short period of time. We cannot imagine life without him. He brings us joy and laughter every day - everything he does is with an infectious joy, energy and enthusiasm. He is quite possibly the happiest little soul on the planet. Those that meet him are struck by him; his energetic and bouncy manner as he chases a ball with unbelievable speed and brings it back, only to tease you with the ball, snatching it back until he decides you can have it to toss again for him. He has a great sense of humor. And of course, we are constantly told how "cute" and "adorable" he is. I mean please, just look at him. People want to know where we got him, presumably because they'd like one just like him. I don't believe there is another one like him, unless we can find his siblings! Once we had taught Max that the house was not his bathroom he has never had any more house training issues in our house or any house we visit. He comes when he is called, most of time :-). He doesn't dig or bark unnecessarily. He pays attention to what we want of him and we understand each other very well. He comes with me on my three-mile walk in the mornings and generally leads the way and sets the pace. He sleeps all day on the bed until Scott comes home to throw the ball for him - several times. Then he snuggles and cuddles with us as he settles in for the night. He sleeps IN the bed and I'm still not sure how he managed that one. On the weekends he comes to the barn with me and has learned how to stay safe and away from the horses feet. He has become friends with the kids and dogs in the cul-de-sac, and gets very excited when his doggy friends come over and visit for a cookie or to stay the night. At social events, at home or at other homes, he hangs out with the crowd and usually finds a child to play with or an adult to score a treat from. As I am in danger of making this too long again I shall stop now. Thank you for finding this little treasure for us. We love and worship every moment we have with this precious little guy. Please feel free to stop by and visit him if ever you have time and see for yourself what a joy he has become." Sarah and Scott Carlsbad

Sisco

"Hi! I just wanted to send a picture along for the happy ending page for Sisco. He now goes by Ozzie and is completely in love with our other cat Vander (tabby in the pic). They run and play together all day, then curl up around each other for naps. Ozzie is still vocal as ever, but he's always good for a cuddle and some loving. We are so happy to have him & couldn't imagine a more perfect addition to our family! Thanks again! Kaisa Schiele"
