We Need Foster Homes!

We typically have about 80 dogs in our care at any given time. We also typically have up to 15 dogs waiting to get into foster homes.

POMDR provides supplies such as crate, bed, collar, harness, leash, id tag, bowls, toys, flea prevention. We also cover all medical expenses. We ask that our foster homes provide the food and a loving, safe home until your foster dog is adopted.

Fostering is a wonderful way to help dogs left behind find their forever homes. You may also want to foster as a way of finding the perfect match for your home if you are looking to add a dog to your family.

The following dogs need foster homes:

Dafne

Chihuahua
Female, 7 years old, about 8 pounds

Dafne is a petite Chihuahua Mix, weighing in at just over 8 pounds right now. She came to us from Hitchcock Road Animal Services, where she was having some digestive upset that was causing her to lose weight. She is a little shy, but enjoys pets and scratches and tolerates being held. She wasn't overly enthused about being introduced to a puppy, but would likely be content in a home with other adult dogs. We're hoping we can help her put some weight on and regain some energy once she's comfortable in a foster home.

Dafne will be available to foster beginning Saturday, 1/23.

If you are interested in fostering and you are already a POMDR volunteer, email us. If you are interested in fostering and are not a volunteer yet, please fill out a volunteer application. Or, if you're interested in adopting, fill out an adoption questionnaire.

Paddington

Looks like: Chow Chow Mix
Male, 10 years old, about 40 pounds

Paddington loves people and enjoys attention, and will happily greet other dogs. He has some vision and mobility issues, and is a little wobbly on his feet, but he's very sweet and we're hoping we can help him put some weight on, add strength, and have him feel much more comfortable. Despite his rickety, weak state and soft eyes, he is a happy boy who wants to be able to live his life, be with people, and explore his surroundings.

Paddington came to us from Hitchcock Road Animal Services because he was stressed in the shelter setting and wasn't eating. He had been found as a stray.

Paddington will be available to foster beginning 1/19.If you are interested in fostering and you are already a POMDR volunteer, email us.
