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. Click here for more information about volunteering and fostering and to fill out an online volunteer questionnaire.

The following dogs need foster homes:

Juice Box
Looks like: Australian labradoodle
Male, 10 years old (estimated), 60 pounds
Meet Juice Box, the sweetest sip of joy you could ever bring home! This distinguished senior is as refreshing as his name calm, friendly, and full of gentle charm. With his easygoing nature, he is the perfect companion for families, kids, and anyone looking for a loyal best friend who knows how to kick back and enjoy life.

Juice Box isn't about wild puppy antics, he is about quiet walks, cozy naps, and being the steady, loving presence by your side. If you are looking for a mellow sweetheart who will fill your days with warmth (and maybe a little fizz of fun), Juice Box is ready to pour his heart into yours.

Poor Juice Box joins POMDR after his beloved guardian suddenly passed away.

Got space in your heart (and home) for one very special Juice Box? This handsome senior Australian Labradoodle will be coming in for his intake evaluation on September 5th, and we'd love for him to head straight into a cozy foster home. Juice Box is as mellow as they come! Calm, gentle, and totally kid approved. He is easygoing, low maintenance, and promises not to spill on your carpet. All he needs is a foster family to keep him cool while he waits for his forever home. Who's ready to pop open a Juice Box and savor the sweetness?

Little John
Looks like: Poodle / Lhaso Apso mix
Male, 14 old (estimated), 15 pounds
Sweet Little John is a senior gentleman who is looking for a loving home to call his own. John still has pep in his step, but is dealing with Cushings disease and a need for daily medication to keep it under control. He would love to live out his golden years in peace!

Little John will be joining POMDR from Pets in Need Rescue in Redwood City who thought he would thrive in a senior focussed rescue setting.

We would love to see Little John land in a loving foster home who is comfortable with daily medication administration or willing to learn more!

Chucky
Looks like: Chihuahua
Male, 13 years old (estimated), 10 pounds
Chucky is a wise and wonderful little soul with a heart as big as his ears. At 13, he's embraced his golden years with grace and a touch of quirky charm. A true gentleman, Chucky is gentle, thoughtful, and independent - the kind of dog who enjoys quiet moments, warm laps, and short strolls in the sun. He is currently thriving on prescription kidney food and doing well, proving age is just a number when you have the right care (and the right person by your side). Chucky is not the clingy type - he enjoys companionship, but also appreciates his space. He's looking for a like-minded human, ideally someone retired, who enjoys a calm, low-key lifestyle and is looking for a loyal sidekick to share it with.

Chucky is a bit picky about his canine companions - he knows what (and who) he likes. So a home where he can either be your one-and-only or selectively socialize with mellow dogs would suit him best.

If you're someone who understands the beauty of slow mornings, shared sunsets, and quiet companionship, Chucky might just be your perfect match. Come meet this quirky little senior - he's ready to love and be loved for the rest of his days. Chucky comes to POMDR because his sweet and loving guardian recently passed.

Not looking to adopt but want to help a senior pup in need?! Chucky might be your perfect foster dog to dip your toe into fostering! If he is calling to you, please reach out to us today!

Butterscotch
Looks like: Dachshund mix
Male, 6 years old (estimated), 16 pounds
Meet Butterscotch, your sweetest companion! Butterscotch is a heart-meltingly adorable long-haired Dachshund mix with a personality as sweet as his name. This little gentleman is the full package: calm, gentle, and endlessly endearing. Butterscotch is the kind of pup who'll quietly curl up next to you while you read or nap, content just to be near his people. He's wonderfully mellow and gets along beautifully with other dogs, making him a great addition to a multi-pup household or a perfect solo companion for someone looking for a low-key best friend.

At his core, Butterscotch is all about love. He doesn't need much, just a cozy spot to rest, a few strolls around the block, and someone to give him the affection he so sweetly returns. If you're searching for a loyal, peaceful presence in your home, Butterscotch might just be your perfect match.

This sweet guy joins us from Hitchcock Road Animal Services after he was found as a stray.

Butterscotch will be landing with Peace of Mind on Friday, August 29th. We would love nothing more for this sweet little man to land in a foster home where he can be doted on like the amazing little man that he is. Can he stay with you?

Violet
Looks like: Dachshund, Maltese mix
Female, 9 years old (estimated), 12 pounds
Sweet, mellow Violet is just looking for a quiet retirement home where she can lay her head. Violet landed at a busy shelter in the Sacramento area, matted beyond belief and so scared. We're happy to have her join us here at POMDR for a soft transition before finding her forever family. Could that be you?

Violet gets along well with other dogs, cats, and children! She might have a little vision loss, but still gets around well. She enjoys lounging in a warm dog bed and being by her person's side. We think she would make a great addition to any calm and loving home.

Gretchen
Looks like: German Shepherd mix
Female, 5 years old (estimated), 45 pounds
Gretchen is looking for her luck to change. This poor girl was initially found in terrible shape from a hoarding situation. She was skin and bones and horrified of the world. We imagine she didn't know what life was like outside of her former home/crate. We would love nothing more than to find a home for Gretchen to spend her days and to get her feeling her best.

Gretchen has put on some healthy weight in our care but she still has a long road ahead of her. She is searching for a compassionate and patient home that can continue to help her build trust and confidence. Gretchen gets along beautifully with other dogs and doesn't mind feline companions.

Sweet Gretchen originally came to us from the Riverside County Animal Shelter after being found in a hoarding situation. Unfortunately she was recently returned from her adopted home due to being fearful of a cat that was bullying her.

Gretchen is currently in a suite at our vet clinic and would love to go to a foster home right away! She is a gentle and curious girl who does great with other pups and cats.

Male, 6 years old (estimated), 5 pounds
Looking for double the love and twice the heart? Meet Mac and Dee, an inseparable pair of Chihuahuas who prove that true friendship knows no bounds! Dee is a gentle senior lady who's vision impaired, but she doesn't let that slow her down- because she has Mac, her devoted sidekick and guide. Mac is a total wiggle worm with a goofy grin and nonstop tail wags. He's always checking in on Dee, helping her navigate new spaces, and making sure she's never far from comfort (or cuddles).

Together, they're a perfect balance: Dee brings the calm, Mac brings the comic relief, and both bring endless love. They're great with people, love curling up in a cozy spot, and are looking for a home where they can stay side-by-side forever. If you're ready to open your heart to a dynamic duo that will fill your days with sweetness, smiles, and snuggles, Mac and Dee are ready to meet you!

Tortilla

Male, 3 years old (estimated), 20 pounds

Right now, Tortilla is resting and recovering from a bout of kennel cough, but don't you worry, this resilient little Frenchie is expected to bounce back in no time! Despite not feeling his best, Tortilla's gentle nature still shines through. He's calm, affectionate, and incredibly sweet with both people and other dogs.

Tortilla would love a quiet, cozy home to finish healing and start her new chapter. He's low-maintenance, full of love, and ready to become someone's shadow and best friend. If you're looking for a mellow, heart-melting companion with a smooshy face and a golden soul, Tortilla is your guy!

Bayley is full of love for people, kids, and friendly dogs. He greets everyone like they're his new best friend and has a way of making every day feel like a celebration.

Dora is great with other dogs and would love a home where she can have a furry friend or two to explore the world (or the backyard) with. Her favorite hobbies include couch naps, cuddle sessions, and melting hearts with her big, soulful eyes.

Dora is currently working through a few medical issues, but she's expected to make a full recovery and be back to full snuggle strength soon. Even while healing, her sweet personality never quits.

Nana
Looks like: Anatolian Shepherd mix
Female, 6 years old (estimated), 70 pounds
Like her namesake from Peter Pan, Nana is the picture of loyalty and love. This sweet senior has a gentle, caretaker's heart. She bonds deeply with her people and will happily be your steady, loving shadow.

Nana is entering her golden years, and like many seniors, she can sometimes get a little confused or disoriented. She's hoping for a patient, understanding home that will give her comfort, routine, and reassurance when she needs it. In return, she'll give you unconditional love and a calm, devoted companionship that only a senior dog can offer.

Independent as well as affectionate, Nana is just as content to nap on the porch or lounge in the yard as she is to enjoy a car ride or a slow stroll. She walks beautifully on leash and loves to take in the world at her own pace. She also gets along well with gentle dogs and would thrive in a quiet, peaceful home where she can feel safe and adored.

Hibiscus
Looks like: Chihuahua mix
Female, 8 years old (estimated), 8 pounds

This petite pup is a quiet soul who prefers cozy cuddle spots to crowded spaces. She's happiest nestled in a soft blanket or sunbathing by the window, her tiny tail gently wagging as she takes in the world around her. Hibiscus would thrive in a calm home where she'll surprise you with the softest kisses and a heart full of love. She's gentle, affectionate, and absolutely charming -- like a wildflower you're lucky to stumble upon.

She still has plenty of pep in her step and enjoys nothing more than playing outside with her favorite toys and people. She is the queen of fetch and zoomies!

This sweet girl would really thrive as the apple of your eye. Orchid doesn't love to share, so another pup sibling would ideally not care about toys at all. Orchid is the perfect companion for someone looking for a loyal, active best friend to share cozy evenings and warm mornings.

Little miss Orchid joined us from the Bradshaw Sacramento County Shelter, where she came to them as a stray. With a full shelter, they thought she would do best with a senior rescue to find her forever family.

Cassie
Looks like: Welsh corgi, terrier mix
female, 8 months old, 25 pounds
Make way, world! There's a tiny but mighty 8 month old puppy named Cassie trotting into our program with a ferociously wiggly corgi bottom.

Cassie is a social butterfly who greets everyone, kids, adults, and other dogs, with happy kisses and a wagging tail nub. On walks, she struts like a pro and loves making new doggy friends. At home, Cassie is playful, goofy, and endlessly affectionate. She adores kids and would thrive in a home where she can romp, play, and snuggle. Like any pup her age, she has a mischievous streak, she thinks shoes and rugs are pretty fun chew toys, but she is easily redirected with her own toys. Cassie would love an active family, ideally with another doggy playmate.

This little darling joins POMDR after her guardian fell ill and was no longer able to care for her due to her bouncy puppy energy.

We are excitedly waiting to schedule this sweet girl for her intake evaluation, pending a foster who can commit to her through adoption, helping her learn, grow, and enjoy some much needed stability.

Looks like: Miniature Pinscher Mix
Male, 9 years old (estimated), 12 pounds

Did we mention that Buddy is a champion cuddler? This sweet guy bonds with his person quickly and deeply. He loves being on your lap or in your arms but is also perfectly content curled up in a dog bed with or without other pups.

Buddy has some arthritis in his back, so he prefers gentle handling, and would love to be in a home with a single adult. Despite his arthritis, Buddy loves exploring the world on walks and is happiest sniffing to his heart's content! He does great around other dogs but because of his arthritis, Buddy is looking for a home with dog friends who can also be gentle with him and not roughhouse.

Looks like: Terrier, Lab mix
Male, 10 years old (estimated), 23 pounds
Sweet Wilson joined us from Contra Costa Animal Services after his homeless guardians came to realize they could not provide Wilson with the care he needed in his advancing age.

Wilson is a senior dog with a heart as golden as his years. Unfortunately, his severe mobility difficulties paired with numerous other medical factors including cushings, IVDD, vision loss, and some doggie dementia, we have decided that Wilson should join our hospice group. He will live out his days under the attentive care of our vet team soaking in as much love as possible.

Wilson is currently in a loving foster home but needs a temporary foster while his regular foster is away. Wilson has some considerable mobility challenges and does require a helping hand to get up at times. He's searching for a temporary foster who is home most of the day as he requires a fair bit of support.
