Fostering is one of the most impactful ways to do just that. Many of the dogs we rescue—whether from local owner surrenders or high-kill shelters outside our community—are simply waiting for their forever homes. In the meantime, they need loving foster families who can provide care, stability, and compassion until the perfect match is found.
To continue saving more dogs, we rely on dedicated foster homes willing to step up and help. Please don’t let these deserving animals wait any longer—become a foster and make a life-saving difference today. 🐾
Location: Foster homes must live within approximately 45 minutes of the Eugene–Springfield area to ensure access to our partner veterinarian and adoption events.
Safety: Fosters must be able to keep dogs safe and secure at all times, including proper supervision and preventing escapes.
Adoption Support: Foster providers may be asked to bring dogs to adoption events or assist with meet-and-greets with potential adopters.
Updates: Sharing photos and brief updates helps our dogs find their forever homes.
Care & Commitment: We provide food, supplies, and veterinary care. Foster homes provide daily care, supervision, transportation, and love. A minimum two-week commitment is required, though most dogs stay until adopted (about four weeks on average).
We provide: food, crates, pens, potty pads, collars and leashes, medications, and all veterinary care.
