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.

The following dogs need foster homes:

Female, 6 years old (estimated), 45 pounds
Polly gets along with other dogs and likes to play, but will let them know if they are invading her space too much by putting her paw on them. We love that she communicates like this, and think she will do best in a home with another dog who responds well to her boundaries. She has definitely had a few litters of puppies in the past, and we think Polly is showing her motherly instinct when she does this. She would also be great as a solo pup.
This sweet lady came to us from Hitchcock Road Animal Services after she was picked up as a stray.
Polly Pocket is currently in a loving foster home and is just looking for a temporary spot to land while they are out of town. Do you have space for this special lady? Please reach out if so!

We are amazed at how happy-go-lucky and resilient she is. Our vet clinic is currently working to determine what kind of eye issues she is dealing with, and believe she is near totally blind. This doesn't stop her from being the happiest pup in the room, though! We think she would make a great addition to any home that is relatively easy to navigate. Prior blind dog experience is a plus! Apply for SPF today and bring bundles of joy into your life.
