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:

Jack
Looks like: Jack Russell Terrier mix
Male, 7 years old (estimated), 28 pounds
Jack is looking for his next adventure partner! This friendly guy loves to meet new doggy friends out on walks and is great at walking on leash. He loves people, including children and is even friendly with kitties. He is also crate-trained and knows basic commands. Although he gets excited to meet new friends, he is a fairly mellow fella who is looking for a loving home.

Jack's guardian has to move into non-pet friendly housing and is heartbroken to give him up.

Jack is coming to us for a temperament evaluation on May 17th and would love to go home with a foster that day!

Ace
Looks like: Miniature Schnauzer
Male, 13 years old (estimated), 15 pounds
Ace's favorite job is as "lap warmer." He is the perfect size to be able to warm your whole lap, but not too heavy to make your legs fall asleep! Ace has lived with other dogs and been around children without any issues. We're not sure how he does with kitties. Ace is a very mellow boy and loves his naps. He is starting to lose some of his hearing as he ages, which make his naps even more relaxing as he isn't woken up by noises as easily anymore!

Ace has no known health issues and has received regular vet care including dentals for his whole life. His senior guardian passed away 6 years ago and her daughter took him in. She is also a senior and has been struggling with worsening Alzheimer's so can no longer care for Coal, so he's coming into POMDR so he can find a new loving forever home.

Ace is coming to us for intake evaluation on Friday May 17th, and we would love to find a home for him to land in that afternoon!

Coal
Looks like: Miniature Schnauzer
Male, 9 years old, 18 pounds
A charming and well trained gentleman, Coal has a playful silly side to offset his formal appearance. He loves his squeaky toys and is never one to say no to a game of fetch! Although Coal gets along well with other dogs, he would love a home with a person he can call his own. He currently lives with other pups, but he likes getting attention and playing with humans more than other pups. Coal would prefer to live with humans over 15, since those littler ones can be unpredictable and scare him.

Typical to his breed, Coal likes to say hello to other dogs and guests by barking, but is friendly and likes to say hi with sniffs after initially alerting those around him to a new friend arriving in the vicinity!

Coal has no known health issues and has received regular vet care including dentals for his whole life. His senior guardian has been struggling with worsening Alzheimer's and can no longer care for Coal, so he's coming to POMDR so he can find a new loving forever home.

He is coming to us for evaluation on May 17th and would love to find a home to land in that afternoon!

Zoe - 5/24-5/26 only
Looks like: Miniature Pinscher
Female, 8 years old (estimated), 19 pounds
With her happy personality and zest for life, Zoe is ready to be someone's co-pilot! This affectionate and high energy gal is always up for an adventure! Zoe loves her walks and will greet all new people and dogs of all ages and sizes. This super smart girl has quickly bonded and acclimated to her foster family's routines. Her perfect day is eating a yummy breakfast, exploring the yard, morning walk, napping in cozy blankets or a sun puddle, playing independently with her stuffies, afternoon walk, dinner and cuddling on the couch. Zoe is a big snuggler who loves to give her people kisses and will wiggle her whole body with excitement upon seeing them. She will make a loyal and loving companion for a lucky family!

Zoe walks well on leash, good with car rides, and is people and dog friendly. She tends to chase after kitties, so is looking for a cat-free home. Zoe would do best in an active and child free home.

Zoe came to POMDR to find a new home after her guardian passed away.

Zoe is looking for a temp foster while her current foster is out of town.

Blu
Looks like: Toy Australian Shepherd
Male, 10 years old (estimated), 12 pounds
Gorgeous blue-eyed Blu is always on the go! This little guy has loads of energy to burn and then some. He definitely enjoys his playtime and going on outings, but he is also a master in relaxation and has some serious snuggling skills. One of his special moves is inching his way up your body when you are sitting on the couch and getting his nose right into the crook of your neck. Absolutely adorable if you are into this kind of intimacy. When meeting new people, he may be a little shy at first, but will warm up quickly especially if they hold him or give him a treat. He does not enjoy being around younger children and cats; however, he likes interacting with other dogs, preferably smaller ones. While he could absolutely coexist with another dog, he would probably not mind at all being the sole canine in the house and hogging all the attention for himself. He sleeps sweetly and quietly through the night.

Blu can be reactive on leash, especially to larger dogs, bicycles and joggers passing by too closely for his comfort. He loves to go on car rides and would much rather come along than staying home alone. He is working on overcoming his separation anxiety, but in the meantime he would definitely prefer if his human companions were home most of the time or can take him wherever they go. This good boy responds well to training as he is eager to please, listens well, and is a quick learner. Sweet Blu is very much looking forward to a warm lap to call his own and in return he will be the most devoted friend that anyone could ever hope for.

Blu first joined Peace of Mind when his senior guardian became ill and sadly could not take him to the facility where they moved. He had to come back to POMDR after being adopted when the other dog in his adoptive home became unwell and his adopter couldn't manage his training needs and her other dog's medical needs.

Blu is looking for a foster home who can help work with him on his leash walking skills and confidence building to reduce his anxiety and reactivity.

Stella
Looks like: Chow Chow, Australian Cattle Dog
Female, 8 years old (estimated), 33 pounds
There's something about Stella's smile that lights up a room. This sweet girl has been through a difficult chapter, and is still learning to trust humans again. Stella can be a bit cautious when she meets new people, but when she gets comfortable, she falls in love fast, just like you will with her. No matter where you go, Stella will be your shadow, always ready to give you her trademark adorable smile and lots of snuggles and kisses.

Stella finds herself searching for a home without other dogs and a spot with people who have herding dog experience and are knowledgeable about training.

After being found as a stray, Stella was taken to Hitchcock Road Animal Services before arriving at POMDR.

Stella is hoping to move into a new foster home soon!

Moose - 6/7-6/16 only
Looks like: Schnauzer
Male, 11 years old (estimated), 15 pounds
Mister Moose is looking for a loving home to call his own. This incredibly sweet guy has so much love to share! He gets along well with other dogs, but in true Schnauzer fashion, he can be a bit invasive in another dog's space. Some dogs don't appreciate this, but Moose doesn't take this personally. He's friends with anyone who wants to be friends with him! We don't know yet how he does around kitties or children.

This sweet Schnauzer boy joined us from Tracy Animal Services. He was brought to them as a stray and was found to need medical attention for a mass, so he came to POMDR and is being assessed by our vets.

Moose is looking for a temp foster while his current foster is out of town.

Chiquito
Looks like: Beagle, Chihuahua mix
Male, 7 years old (estimated), 17 pounds
Chiquito may be small, but he's got a lot of love to share! This little guy can be a bit anxious at first, but with a little patience and a lot of heart, Chiquito would make a great addition to a loving family. This loving pup wants nothing more than to spend the day snuggling, covering his new best friend with kisses.

Little Chiquito would do well in a home where either he's the only apple of your eye, or he gets to have some doggy brothers or sisters. However, Chiquito appears to be a bit afraid of cats and, due to the fact that this little guy can get anxious from time to time, it's recommended that he does not live with young children.

Chiquito came to us from Kern County Animal Services when they reached out for help due to their shelter being beyond capacity.

Chiquito is currently in a suite at our clinic but would love to go to a foster home right away!

Lilly - 5/30-6/10 only
Looks like: Lhasa Apso mix
Female, 12 years old (estimated), 19 pounds
Lilly is proof that age is just a number and that you can maintain the most beautiful and fluffy curls even if you are super inquisitive and adventurous. This gorgeous Lady loves to be out and about, explore, and go on long walks, taking her time to sniff and smell the latest "pee-mail." She walks nicely on leash and is friendly with humans of all ages and dogs of all sizes. At her foster home, she chases the cat and may be better off in a feline-free home. Most of all, this laid-back girl relishes snoozing on the couch and doing her own thing, interspersed with occasional pets and cuddles. When home alone, she is well-behaved and waits patiently for her company to return. Lilly is very smart, gentle, and confident, and will easily adjust to new circumstances and adventures.

Miss Lilly is fully house-trained, but she needs to eat a special diet to help with urinary care and, although she loves food, she is limited in what she is allowed to eat. With only a couple of teeth left, she eats soft food only. This sweetheart is eager to join you on explorations and car rides, and be your faithful companion all day, every day!

Lilly was surrendered to Santa Cruz County Animal Services because of her medical needs that need a little extra TLC.

Lilly is looking for a temp foster while her current foster is out of town.

Nikka
Looks like: Pomeranian/Chihuahua mix
Female, 12 years old (estimated), 8 pounds
Have you ever wanted a polar bear? We have what might be the next best thing, a miniature one! Nikka is a sweet and friendly girl who looks like a small version of a polar bear. She gets along well with other dogs, but we aren't sure about her feelings on kiddos or kitties.

Contra Costa Animal Services reached out to us to see if we could help her with her medical needs, and Nikka will likely need some followups at our vet clinic after she has been evaluated by our vet staff.

Nikka is currently cuddled up in a suite at our vet clinic and is looking for a loving and mellow foster home.

Chico - 6/15-6/27 only
Looks like: Chihuahua mix
Male, 12 years old (estimated), 5 pounds
Whoever has had the pleasure in meeting little Mr. Chico can certify that he falls within the 100th percentile as an expert snuggling lapdog. This super sweet, friendly, happy, and mellow guy loves to be picked up, held, pet, and cuddled by anyone, no matter if young or old. At his foster home, he mostly follows his humans around, but will eventually snuggle up comfortably for a nap somewhere. He gets along well with other dogs and has not been reactive to cats that he has encountered when out and about. In general, he is great on leashed walks, but slows down when he gets tired; occasionally, though, he does sport boosts of puppy energy.

Chico gets a little car sick on long drives or on windy roads. With no teeth left he prefers his food and treats to be in small bites and soft. His silly tongue often pokes out which beautifully matches his goofy personality and adorable face. He would love nothing more than joining a quiet, low-activity household where he can spend a lot of time with his doting and attentive companions.

Chico came to us from a shelter in Sacramento.

Chico will need a temp foster while his current foster is out of town and preferably lives in the Santa Cruz area.

Jeff
Looks like: Chiweenie
Male, 8 years old (estimated), 7 pounds
Jeff is the biggest snuggle bug who wants to be your velcro buddy! This sweet tootsie roll is looking for a warm, cozy place to call his furever home. He is happiest right beside his person and if you have an open lap, he just loves to curl up in it! This loyal and lovable boy's perfect day is short walks, yummy treats and of course, lots of snuggle time! If you're lucky, you might even see a little prancing show!

Jeff is a little shy when meeting new friends, but warms up quickly. He is dog friendly but has no known experience with kitties or children.

This sweet guy joined us from Hitchcock Road Animal Services after he was picked up as a stray.

This sweet, snuggly boy is in a suite at our vet clinic but would love to go into a foster home soon!

Terra
Looks like: Poodle mix
Female, 10 years old (estimated), 10 pounds
Happy, sweet, and active Terra is a perfectly polite companion who likes to know what you are up to at all times. She will follow you around the home, observing your daily chores and routines. As reimbursement for her diligent supervision, Terra appreciates regular meals, a couple of well-timed treats, walks around the neighborhood, and loads of love. At the end of her busy day, she enjoys relaxing on the couch snuggled up next to you. Although she definitely prefers when her human companion is around, she is also fine when left home alone for a little while. She gets along with other dogs, but she has no known experience with children and cats.

Up until now, Terra did not get a chance to live life to the fullest and she is eager to catch up on the plush pampered poodle lifestyle. She does have a bit of a wobbly walk, but she gets around beautifully. At her foster home she is getting introduced to car rides and although she is not the biggest fan, yet, she takes new experiences in stride. She is perfectly housetrained and knows how to use a doggie door. This beautiful soul is dreaming of a home where she can be part of all the daily activities, and where she can give and receive lots and lots of attention and affection.

Terra was roaming the streets as a stray when a good Samaritan saw a truck run over her -- fortunately without making contact! She was taken to Hitchcock Road Animal Services before joining POMDR.

This sweet senior lady is searching for a loving foster home that can help her live her best life and recover from the traumatic past few weeks she's had. Terra is currently cozied up in a boarding suite at our Monterey vet clinic but we'd love for her to land in a foster home soon. Terra will need a few visits to our Monterey vet clinic for medical care.

Katara
Looks like: Rat Terrier, Chihuahua mix
Female, 13 years old (estimated), 11 pounds
Katara is one lucky little pup. We wish we knew more of her backstory, but from what we have gathered from her, she seems to need some work in re-learning to trust her humans. Katara is an absolute love and seems to enjoy lap cuddles and pets very much. Given this love and affection, she bonds deeply with her people.

Katara seems a bit overwhelmed with too much commotion in a home or other dogs invading her space, so she is looking for a quiet landing spot that is ready to welcome a new best friend. She lights up when she sees a leash and is always ready for an adventure!

Sweet little Katara joined us from Hitchcock Road Animal Services after being surrendered to the shelter for being "too old."

Katara is looking to land in a loving foster home where she can blossom and shine! She is currently boarding at our Monterey vet clinic and would love to join a mellow foster home.

Winifred - 5/30-6/10 only
Looks like: Terrier mix
Female, 8 years old (estimated), 9 pounds
Walk smarter, not harder; that's little Winifred's motto! Why go for walks when willing humans with long legs can carry you everywhere? This sweet girl is vision impaired and prefers to be in your arms instead of exploring the world on her own, especially in unfamiliar places. She does enjoy moseying around in the backyard, though. Her warm bed is her favorite spot while soaking up some sun during a cozy nap. As soon as she wakes up, she loves snuggling, doling out plenty of kisses, following her favorite human, and asking to be held by pawing at your leg. When meeting new people, she can be slightly shy but is generally curious. She gets along well with mellow dogs of all sizes, but we do not know quite yet how she is with cats or children. At her foster home she likes to cuddle up with another pup. Winifred is fine when home alone now and then and on rides in the car she contently lays down.

This 9-pound nugget of cuteness is hoping to find affectionate humans who are home most of the day, with whom to share lots of cuddles, and who are able to tote her around a bit. She would do best in a home without stairs or other unsecured drop-offs. At our clinic, Winifred had a cancerous growth removed and she is now in remission, but she will need regular medical check-ups.

Winifred came to us from the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter so that we could address her medical needs.

Winifred needs a temp foster while her current foster is out of town and would do best in a temp foster that can also care for her foster sister Jingle Belle.

Jasper - 6/14-6/23 only
Looks like: Pit Bull mix
Male, 7 years old (estimated), 57 pounds
Sweet and soulful Jasper is ready to land in his forever home and begin to bond with his forever humans. Jasper has lived with dogs both big and small and is very gentle with the little dogs. Jasper loves playing with dogs his size, and he has even lived with two kitties in his former home and was very respectful of them.

He has a really fun personality and is reported to be easy to train with his love of yummy treats! Jasper is a very active guy and is strong on leash, so he is searching for a home with a strong leash handler for his daily walks. In his previous foster home, Jasper lived with cats, kids, goats, horses and other dogs. He is a friendly and super social boy!

Jasper's 90-year-old guardian recently passed away. The son of the guardian is disabled so was unable to take this good boy into his care. He was taken in and cared for by a loving neighbor, but unfortunately, being a senior herself, she was unable to provide him a forever home, so she turned to POMDR for help.

Jasper needs a temp foster while his current foster is out of town!

Buggs
Looks like: Pug mix
Male, 6 years old (estimated), 18 pounds
Poor Buggs has had a rough time lately, but he has not let his recent past dampen his spirits. He's the happiest little guy and definitely on the path to a better life! He gets along well with other pups, but we don't know yet how he does around kitties or children.

Unfortunately, Buggs has a long road to recovery ahead. He is currently at our vet clinic awaiting surgery to repair a fractured pelvis. We are still working on his medical plan, but we know he will need to be on strict crate rest for many more weeks, if not months. Once he is fairly stable, we'd love to see him land in a caring home to recover with his people by his side.

This sweet little Pug was brought to San Jose Animal Care Center after being hit by a car. He was found to have a fractured pelvis and an injured left eye, which was removed at the shelter. He came to us when the shelter reached out to see if we could help.

Buggs is looking for a calm foster home that can help him recover from surgery to repair his broken pelvis.

Neptune
Looks like: Labrador Retriever mix
Male, 6 years old (estimated), 53 pounds
Neptune is the perfect combination of high energy outdoor goofball and mellow indoor cuddlebug. Outside, he is a very active guy and loves to run, play, and explore. After he has burned some energy, he enjoys indoor chill time with his people, getting hugs, belly rubs, doling out face licks, sneaking kisses, and stretching out on top of you if you let him. His foster family adores many traits about Neptune, including how very trusting he is, gentle around feeding time, his slobber-free drinking, and perfect score on no-potty-accidents.

This amazing pup is friendly with any person and dog he meets and is excited about all interactions. He would be very happy as a single dog or have an equally active canine buddy, but he has a pretty strong prey drive and is looking for a home without feline housemates. Neptune is a super curious and strong guy and he would appreciate a patient human companion with whom he can practice how to walk on leash without pulling or jumping and who can teach him how to be calm when he needs to be. He already knows some fun commands and can sit, lay down, shake, and stay on command as long as you have some yummy treats to reward him with. On car rides, he likes sticking his head out of the window, or, if the window is not down, he just curls up quietly.

Neptune is a dog who would really would prefer to be with his humans most of the time receiving lots of love, attention, and continued training. He dreams about being part of an active family, who will keep his smart brain engaged and take him on lots adventures.

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

Neptune needs a new foster to take over his care before May 10th. He would love a foster who is able to continue his training with leash skills and polite greetings with humans so he can learn not everyone wants a big dog jumping in their lap to greet them!

Mini - 5/20-5/29 only
Looks like: Rat Terrier/Chihuahua mix
Female, 6 years old (estimated), 10 pounds
She may be Mini, but Mini has a mighty big heart. This sweet little girl is just looking for her forever family, where she can spend her days getting all the cuddles she could ever want. Mini shows her love with full-body wiggles, which she gets overcome by whenever she can spend time snuggling and chomping on her favorite treats.

Mini is great with dogs of her size or smaller, but she may be happiest as the apple of her next family's eye, allowing them more time to give her all the cuddles she could possibly want without having to share. We have not seen Mini interact with kitties, but she's great with kiddos, especially if they like to cuddle! This little lady is vision-impaired, so she needs eye drops and requires patience and redirection, especially when on walks. She is also looking for a home without stairs to keep her safe.

Little Mini came to us from San Jose Animal Care Center so we could provide her with the medical help she needed.

Mini is looking for a temp foster home while her foster is out of town.

Josh
Looks like: Terrier mix
Male, 9 years old (estimated), 11 pounds
If the description of Josh had to be condensed into one single word it would have to be 'Adoration.' He is just that, absolutely adorable and, equivalently, he completely adores his human companions. This sweet little guy will follow you around and admire everything you do, washing dishes, driving the car, working on the computer, Josh will be there to let you know that you are doing a very fine job. With his amazingly expressive ears he will respond to every word you say, will dole out kisses whenever he can, and roll over for belly rubs. He would love a home where he could spend all day, every day snuggling and cuddling with his humans. That said, Josh also likes to be out and about, exploring the yard, hanging out on the beach, tagging along on leashed walks, or going for a ride in the car. He is polite with all people and dogs that he meets, though sometimes he can be initially a tad reserved. We have not observed him around children yet, but we are pretty sure that he would enjoy the company of older, respectful kids and he might also be fine with cats. He is relaxed when home alone.

Josh takes daily medication for a heart murmur and high blood pressure. Found as a stray, his foster family reports that he acted as though he won the biggest jackpot when he first got to sleep in his new cozy dog bed. This grateful and affectionate lad is just waiting to blossom and be pampered in his forever home.

Josh came to us from Hitchcock Road Animal Services to make room in the overfull shelter.

Josh is looking for a foster home who can work on some training with him.

Jingle Belle - 5/30-6/10 only
Looks like: Chihuahua mix
Female, 8 years old (estimated), 10 pounds
Jingle Belle is a resilient little lady who we're excited to see come out of her shell more and more in time. This sweet small gal appears to have had a rough past, but she's not letting that stop her. Slowly but surely, we're seeing her let people and other pups into her circle. Jingle Belle needs some TLC and patience, but with the right family, we know she'll thrive!

Jingle Belle would do best in a quiet home without children, but we think she'd do well in a home with other dogs, especially if they enjoy snuggling. She also gets along well with cats. This little sweetheart needs a lot of rest and is very low energy, so she needs someone to help her take everything one day at a time. We are continuing to treat her for medical issues in our vet clinic, and it's recommended that she receive prescription GI food as she has a very sensitive tummy.

This tiny girl came to us from Hitchcock Road Animal Services after she was found as a stray.

Jingle Belle needs a temp foster while her current foster is out of town and would prefer to go to a temp foster where she can be with her foster sister Winifred.

Jamie - 5/28-6/14 only
Looks like: Chihuahua/Dachshund mix
Male, 10 years old (estimated), 10 pounds
This adorable little lad is ready to snuggle right up into your home and your heart. Jamie can be just a little shy when first meeting new people, but he warms up quickly and bonds deeply with his people. He even seems to enjoy the company of calm, dog savvy children. More hands to give him love! Sweet little Jamie gets along well with other dogs, but we don't know quite yet how he is with kitties.

Little Jamie is described as an active boy. He loves his squeaky toys and playing ball. He has such a fun personality, his foster even describes him as a 'real clown'! He's love a home where he can get a few walks a day as these are a highlight of his day! Jamie has lived with other dogs in the past and seems to enjoy the company of other canine companions. As active as he is, Jamie is a cuddle bug at heart! He loves to snuggle and give kisses with his people! What more could you ask for in your next best friend?

Jamie came to us after his guardian had to move to a facility that doesn't accept pets and was heartbroken to give him up.

Jamie is looking for a temp foster while his current foster is out of town who preferably lives in the Santa Cruz area.

Pearl
Looks like: Poodle mix
Female, 10 years old (estimated), 10 pounds
Pretty little Pearl is as sweet as they come! She's a tiny bit rough around the edges at the moment, but we know in time and with some TLC she's going to come into her namesake as a beautiful gem! She's always on the lookout for a comfy snuggle spot. Pearl would do best as the only dog in a home as she'd prefer to be the apple of your eye and center of your attention!

This girl sweet girl can be bit fearful of change. She isn't the biggest fan of car rides at the moment, so it would be safest for her to travel in a crate while in the car. We don't know how Pearl does around kitties or children at this time.

This curly little girl joined us from Hitchcock Road Animal Services after she was picked up as a stray.

Pearl is currently cozied up in a boarding suite at our Monterey vet clinic. She is looking for a foster who is willing to work with her to help her feel comfortable with all the change she has been through lately and where she can be the only dog in the home.

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.

Cosmo - 5/24-5/31 only
Looks like: Terrier mix
Male, 10 years old (estimated), 18 pounds
Gentle Cosmo has become quite the jet setter! This sweet guy was in rough shape when he landed at Ventura County Animal Services, but he has since been cleaned up and took to the skies! As he was so far away, we found him a flight on Pilots N Paws. He has now landed with us, ready to start his new life. He's coming out of his shell with his foster family, sampling the pleasures of a good home life, a lap to lie his head on, and snuggling. Oh, the snuggling! Cosmo loves a good stroll in the neighborhood. Now that has a new haircut and his health is stabilizing, his confidence is blooming and his silly side is coming out.

Because he is hard of hearing and blind, he is happiest when his human is close by. We don't yet know how he'd do with young children, but he's been great around other dogs of all shapes and sizes and doesn't seem to mind polite kitties.

Cosmo's history is a bit of a mystery and probably was an airport page-turner. Now that he has landed with us, we know he's ready to get on home to you!

Cosmo is looking for a foster while his current fosters are out of town.
