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:

Bailey
Looks like: Labrador Retriever / German Shepherd mix
Female, 7 years old, 137 pounds
Bailey is a big girl with BIG personality! This girl loves to go on walks and is currently trying to shed some body weight to prepare for summer. Bailey carries quite a few extra pounds and will feel much better losing a few pounds. She is very expressive with her tail, and LOVES food...like a true Labrador! Bailey does well around children, but we are unsure how she does with cats. She would do well in a home with a mellow dog friend or a home where she is the only dog.

Bailey joins our program after her senior guardian surrendered her to her veterinarian for unknown reasons.

This dog is new to our program and has not had their veterinary intake exam yet. Watch our website for updates.

Bailey is looking for an attentive foster home who can help her meet her fitness goals!

Biscuit and Ceppo
Looks like: Cockapoo
Male, 7 years old, 30 pounds
Looks like: Toy Poodle
Male, 6 years old, 15 pounds
Double the softness, double the sweetness, double the fun! These curly-haired pups are Biscuit and Ceppo! Biscuit and Ceppo are very social pups who love to go on walks, car rides, or hang out at home with their human. They are used to being around kids, they get along great with other dogs, but have no experience with cats and mostly just want the attention of people.

Biscuit and Ceppo join us from a guardian who is moving out of the country and their previous plans of re-homing them fell through suddenly.

These dogs are new to our program and have not had their veterinary intake exams yet. Watch our website for updates.

We are hoping to find a foster home for these two who have been together their whole lives!

Jimbo - 3/25-3/29 only
Looks like: Manchester Terrier Mix
Male, 13 years old, 27 pounds
Jimbo is a friendly guy who enjoys cuddling with anyone sitting down nearby. He gets along great with other dogs, though we are not sure he would do with cats or children.

Jimbo has some medical concerns that are still being explored at our clinic. As always, we want potential adopters to have the very best medical information possible prior to adoption. If you fill out an adoption questionnaire, we can give you the most current details Jimbo.

Jimbo came to us from Santa Cruz County Animal Services after his previous guardian had to surrender him when she lost her home due to flooding.

Jimbo is looking for a temporary foster while his long-term foster is out of town for a few days!

Hank
Looks like: Black Mouth Cur
Male, 8 years old, 68 pounds
Hank is a sweet guy that loves his people! He is fine with other pups and is a very polite boy. Hank will ask to get onto the bed or couch and resists human food that is within reach from him, AND he doesn't even beg for food when you're eating! This guy has successfully lived with cats in the past but should be with a dog-savvy cat because he enjoys chasing them if they give him the opportunity and will still require a slow introduction with any new kitty friends. This energetic boy LOVES car rides and going for long walks and hikes but should have an able bodied handler who can handle his strength. Hank's favorite game in the world is fetch! This is a great way to exercise him outside of leashed walks. Hank does not have any experience with children. Hank really enjoys cuddles and belly rubs and would love a home that can give him this kind of attention.

This dog has some medical concerns that we are still figuring out. If you fill out an adoption questionnaire, we can give you the most current details.

Hank comes to us as a guardian surrender because his guardian is no longer able to care for him.

We are looking for an active foster for Hank who will shower him with love. He is a strong boy who requires long walks and regular exercise. Hank would ideally live with someone who is home often and can care for his exercise requirements.

Fernie - 3/30-4/2 only
Looks like: Schnauzer
Male, 13 years old, 24 pounds
Fernie is a sweet and caring Schnauzer who loves cuddling, exploring, and the companionship of his favorite people! Despite the fact that he's an older gentleman, Fernie loves getting out and experiencing the world around him as much as possible. He is very affectionate, and is fine with humans and other dogs. When he's not in couch potato mode, Fernie is brave enough to go off checking out new territory, even though he's blind and may also be deaf. Although he loves checking out new places, Fernie also does well in his crate, where he already knows (and is comfortable with) his surroundings.

Since he is an older dog, Fernie tends to go to the bathroom more often. He usually goes to the restroom about every three hours, and he wears diapers overnight if needed. Fernie will do great in a flat and safe yard where he can sunbathe all day and wander without running into obstacles! He would appreciate a home where someone is home to keep an eye on him most of the time.

Fernie takes daily medications for both thyroid and liver function and needs daily eye ointment in both eyes.

This good boy came to us from Los Angeles North Central Animal Services through CA Mini Schnauzer Rescue.

Fernie is hoping to find a temporary foster while his long-term foster is out of town for the weekend!

Moose
Looks like: Manchester Terrier mix
Male, 11 years old, 26 pounds
Moose is a friendly guy who loves food, scratches and company! He gets along great with other dogs that are calm and keep to themselves. We are not sure how he would be around children or cats. Moose's ideal day would be a few small walks around the block followed by cuddling with his human all day.

Moose is on daily medications for both heart disease and Cushings. As always, we want potential adopters to have the very best medical information possible prior to adoption. If you fill out an adoption questionnaire, we can give you the most current details Moose.

Moose came to us from Santa Cruz County Animal Services after his previous guardian had to surrender him when she lost her home due to flooding.

Moose is looking for a foster home to spend his time with!

Hatchi
Looks like: Siberian Husky
Male, 5 years old, 53 pounds
Hatchi is just the goofiest, most fun pup around! He's had a tough go and has been in and out of the shelter several times, in worsening shape each time so they are hoping to find him a rescue to get him feeling good and ready for his forever home. Hatchi is playful with other dogs of all sizes and takes direction well from little pups who don't want to be stepped on. If they say back up, Hatchi is happy to comply! He loves scratches from his human friends and loves going for walks. We are not sure how he is with cats or kids.

Hatchi is at Hitchcock Road Animal Services after being surrendered by his guardian. He is awaiting a foster so he can come into our program and find his forever home!

We would love to find him a committed foster ready to see Hatchi through his skin and coat recovery!

Lacey
Looks like: Mastiff mix
Female, 11 years old, 80 pounds
Sweet Lacey is a cuddle bug! She loves to meet new people and is very expressive with her tail. She is friendly with kids and other humans and has even lived with a cat friend. Her low energy means she is a couch potato and loves to snooze!

Lacey is coming to us after her guardian moved into their mom's home to care for her and can't have any large dogs in the home.

This dog is new to our program and has not had her veterinary intake exam yet. Watch our website for updates.

We are hoping to find a foster for Lacey before she enters our program on April 7th!

Santi
Looks like: German Shepherd Mix
Male, 8 years old, 90 pounds
Big and handsome are the first two words that come to mind when we see Santi! This good boy does great with humans old and young, big and small - he loves them all! Santi is hoping to find a home where he can get more exercise. He loves going on walks and would love to be a hiking buddy to someone who hikes often!

Santi is coming into our program now that his current guardians are having their second baby and admit they are unable to give Santi all the love and exercise he deserves.

This dog is new to our program and has not had his veterinary intake exam yet. Watch our website for updates.

Santi is hoping to have a foster home lined up for when he comes into our program on April 7th! Do you need a furry friend to go on hikes with?

Kali
Looks like: English Bulldog
Female, 7 years old, 52 pounds

Kali has some medical concerns that we are still figuring out. If you fill out an adoption questionnaire, we can give you the most current details.

Buddie
Looks like: Maltese
Male, 13 years old, 10 pounds
Buddie is a sweet little guy who gets excited to meet other dogs and humans. He loves to run up to people to receive pats from them and play. He is a social guy and does not mind living with cats or other dogs. He loves to cuddle with anyone who is home.

Buddie has some incontinence issues and his owner is no longer able to care for him and this medical need.

Yogi Berra
Looks like: Corgi mix
Male, 9 months old, 25 pounds
Yogi Berra is a fun, young pup looking for an experienced home to call his very own! He often gets excited when he sees other dogs and wants to go play with them. When he gets over excited, he needs some gentle correcting. At other times, Yogi can be on the timid side when making new friends and hide bashfully upon first seeing another dog. He does well with dog savvy children, but we do not know how he does with cats. One thing for sure, this guy will be a fun addition to the right family!

Yogi will need additional training in his adoptive home, so we are asking that his adopter put down a refundable training deposit to ensure that he receives the further training that he needs to succeed. Training is a fun way to bond with your new pup and this young boy is very much still a puppy! He will need plenty of exercise in the form of long (45-60 min) walks, toy time, and stimulation. He is big on chewing, and not always on the most appropriate items. Yogi is working on crate training, which should help keep him from thinking furniture is a fun toy.

Yogi Berra came to us as a guardian surrender when his person could no longer care for him due to a decline in health.

We are looking for an active foster home for Yogi Berra where he can continue working on his training, and give him lots of playtime and exercise to meet his puppy energy needs!

Sophie - 4/20-4/27 only
Looks like: Bichon Mix
Female, 9 years old, 12 pounds
Sophie is an adorable little teddy bear who loves her people! She enjoys walks and exploring the yard, taking all the good smells. This sweet lady is a bit vision impaired, but she does not let that slow her down. Sophie has been diagnosed with Cushings on top of quite a few other medical conditions. She will remain in her loving foster home for the rest of her life, receiving the best care to help her to stay as healthy as possible.

Sophie came to us from Santa Cruz County Animal Services after being surrendered by her guardian who could no longer care for her.

Sophie is looking for a temporary foster who is experienced with giving multiple medications.

Bella Artois
Looks like: Cocker Spaniel Mix
Female, 10 years old, 25 pounds
Bella is darling and adores attention! She walks well on leash and is a sweet companion. She will happily curl up in her comfy bed and snooze the day away. Her favorite place is on a lap or her dog bed.

As is often the case with Cocker Spaniels, Bella has had chronic ear infections that have left her with diminished hearing. While she enjoys walks, Bella tends to be reactive toward other dogs when on leash. She does best off leash with other dogs and regularly visits the beach and enjoys playing there with lots of dog friends!

Bella has some medical concerns that we are still figuring out. If you fill out an adoption questionnaire, we can give you the most current details Bella is coming back to us because her adopter is having housing issues.

Bella is looking for a patient foster that can continue working on her leash reactivity and will enjoy a super soft cuddle buddy!
