BENEFITS OF BEING A DOG FOSTER

Animals are euthanized daily simply because there isn't enough room for all the animals brought in to the local shelters. By choosing to become a foster parent, you are helping to save animal’s lives!

• A dog is given a second chance at life

• Fostering helps the dog learn basic obedience commands,  proper socialization skills and sets them up for success of being adopted
• Fostering provides one on one attention to animals that who many have trust issues and socially challenged
• You get to know the personality of the dog and can help the adopter decide if the dog is the right fit 
• Fostering Saves Two Lives;  the life of the dog you are fostering, and the space you opened up for the dog in need of being rescued.

Interested in fostering:  If you are interested in fostering for Pittie Me Rescue and have no other dogs (or have a safe and secure way to keep dogs separate at all times) or cats in your home, we would love to get to know you and have you join our rescue family.  Please reach out pittiemerescue@gmail.com and a Volunteer will be in contact with you.
