Our 15 little "painters"...2011


THE JOY OF SAVING JUST ONE DOG...FOSTERING

Fostering is about taking a dog into your home during their time of need, nursing them back to health, removing the pain of their past, loving, teaching, and guiding them...and then sending them off to live the life they deserve. Fostering is about giving a dog the one thing they’ve never had… hope. And with the simple act of opening up your home and heart to them, YOU are able to grant their one wish. YOU are able to make their dreams come true. YOU are able to save their life!

There is little to no financial obligation! We can supply you with kennels, pens, food, toys. Foster families may be asked to visit our vet, but we pick up the all costs involved.

We need you to socialize, possibly teach a command or two, help with potty training and give lots and lots of love! To have our dogs fostered by caring families makes them that much more adoptable. They are socialized by living with other pets and children, they learn to walk on leashes and perhaps even learn to sit and shake.

Won't you help us save one dog? Foster HERE.

 

 

Poison Control Hotlines and Information
It's always a good idea to post close at hand your veterinarian's number, the number of an emergency clinic, and the number for the Poison Control Center. Before you call, note the time your pet was exposed to the toxin, the type of product ingested, the manufacturer's name and any ingredients you can find listed on packaging.
