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.

Dolby

We received a nice "pupdate" about Benji (fka Dolby), who was adopted from ARWOB in April 2020. Here is what his adoptive mom has to say: "It has been over a year since we adopted Benji (previously Dolby) and we absolutely adore him. Thank you for all you do and for helping us take Benji home! Here are his before and after pictures."

Nala

We received a fantastic update about Sesame (fka Nala), who was adopted from ARWOB in June 2021.  Here is what her adoptive mom has to say:

"Nice to hear from you! Nala aka Sesame is settling in easily and wants to play play play! She made herself right at home and is very talkative. She has the cutest meow. She always greets me happily at the door when I get home from work and lets me know when she wants to play which is basically all the time. It’s been an interesting few weeks learning each other‘s boundaries but for the most part we are two peas in a pod. She definitely has her cuddle moments and sleeps beside me at night. She is the perfect companion, and is pretty good about not jumping up on the counters. I love her to pieces, my baby girl."


Wave

We received a spectacular "pupdate" about Barley (fka Wave), who was adopted in June 2021.  Here is what his adoptive mom has to say:

"Thank you for checking in! Wave is doing great and settled into our family nicely. I named him Barley, but kept Wave as his middle name :) I'm so thankful for ARWOB and his foster mom Sylvie for connecting me with the best pup. He's so fun and sweet and I love him so much. I feel that his profile described him very well in size and temperament and they did such a great job with his socialization and early training. He is doing really well with our senior dog, River, and even got him playing again which is awesome. We have to separate them sometimes or the old man will try to play too much! Barley just got his first diploma at Petsmart training and we're continuing with the next levels of training. He loves walks on the trails, fetch, playing with the flirt pole, and he's starting to play frisbee, too. We just have fun and enjoy everyday! Thank you again for everything."


Frito

We received this wonderful "pupdate" about Rico (fka Frito), who was adopted in June 2021.  Here is what his adoptive mom has to say:

“I decided to rename Frito to Rico.  He has grown a lot - looks about 10lbs bigger!  We’re working on home training such as “sit” “come” & “stay”.  He’s learning & very attentive and smart. He’s settled in & everyone loves him.  He certainly loves everyone back & is so friendly with all people.  We’ve gone to dog park a couple of times as I want him to get more socialized.  I plan on enrolling him in formal training.”


Aly

We received a "pupdate" about Astra (fka Aly), who was adopted from ARWOB in June 2021.  Here is what her adoptive dad has to say about her progress:

"Astra (her new name) is doing great, her scar is 98% healed and she's 98% housebroken. She chews on everything, but the biggest issue is walking her on a leash. Whether it was no training or whoever her earlier let her drag him/her around, it's been a big problem. It's getting slightly better but at an incredibly slow and frustrating process. Many times she just refuses to move, period. Other than that she's been awesome. She loves to play with all dogs big and small and has to meet everyone we pass while walking and she goes nuts over little kids. Yesterday while walking her on the Martin Luther King Promenade downtown, she was playing with no less than 15 dogs. I still haven't taken her off the leash though. We couldn't be happier with Astra. Take care and thanks for all the work you gals/guys do at your rescue."
