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:

Eva
Looks like: Chihuahua mix
Female, 6 years old (estimated), 15 pounds
Sweet and adorable little Eva is an easy keeper. She gets along great with other pups out and about on walks, loves everyone she meets, and she's even crate trained! What more could you ask for? Eva gets those little legs of hers moving and grooving and loves her daily 2+ mile walks. She's looking for an active home that can keep up with this amazing little lady!

Eva joined POMDR as her guardian's health had been failing for some time, and sadly, she was unable to continue her care.

Miss Eva is coming into our program and looking to land in a loving foster home by December 28th. She'd love to join an active home that can keep this girl moving. Please reach out if you think she'd be a good fit for your home.

Gracie
Looks like: Dachshund mix
Female, 4 years old (estimated), 14 pounds
Sweet little Gracie is a timid treasure. This soulful lady is searching for a safe landing spot where she can blossom and shine. Gracie gets along well with other dogs and is learning to trust her humans day by day. She would love a patient presence to bring her out of her shell.

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

Little miss Gracie will be joining us on Tuesday, December 17th. We would love for this sweetheart to land in a foster home soon after her arrival.

Fern
Looks like: Border Collie mix
Female, 5 years old (estimated), 45 pounds
Miss Fern is a diamond in the rough. We can't wait to see Fern flourish in the right home. Sweet Fern is a little nervous when making new friends but given just a tiny bit of attention, she becomes fast friends with everyone she meets, never wanting to leave your side. We're quite obsessed with her whole body lean she does once comfortable. She's quite the charmer!

Fern was found as a stray in a rural area of Monterey County and sadly no one came looking for her. We can't wait for this beautiful girl to bond with her people and blossom in time!

Fern will be joining our program this week. We would love for her to land in a foster home where she can ease into the good life and have time to warm up at her own speed.

Verona
Looks like: Terrier mix
Female, 4 years old (estimated), 22 pounds
Vivacious Verona is a recent momma looking for a soft spot to land. This sweet girl came to us under unfortunate circumstances and joined us quite pregnant. She gave birth to a single puppy shortly after her POMDR arrival. Verona's puppy stayed with her momma until she was ready to go into a loving foster home of her own. This sweet girl dogs well around other dogs and may do well with a dog savvy cat in the house too!

Verona enjoys spending her days playing with other dogs, getting zoomies around the yard, and snoozing in the sun. Can you provide her with the love and safety she deserves?

Verona came to POMDR with five other pups who were rescued by Hitchcock Road Animal Services from a hoarding situation.

Verona is currently boarding at our clinic awaiting a foster or her forever home! Could that be with you?! Verona is a loving houseguest bound to smother you in kisses any time you'll allow her to!

Millie
Looks like: Terrier mix
Female, 8 years old (estimated), 6 pounds
Little mini Millie is the most adorable little lady you're bound to meet! Her exuberant tail wags say it all, she sure loves hanging with her people! Poor Millie landed at a local shelter in awful shape with a serious skin condition. She currently needs to stay isolated away from other pups but we're looking forward to seeing her progress. Millie is in desperate need of a foster home this holiday season. Can she stay with you? Millie joins us from San Jose Animal Services after she was picked up as a stray.

Millie will be landing at our Monterey vet clinic shortly. She will need treatment for her skin condition and needs to stay isolated from other pups until she is no longer contagious. A no-dog foster home would be ideal or a home that can keep her in a seperate room away from others until her skin condition improves. Ready to be part of Millie's rescue team? We'd love to talk with you today!

Rudolf
Looks like: Miniature Pinscher mix
Male, 10 years old (estimated), 12 pounds
Rudolf, or Rudy for short, is just as brave and sweet as his namesake. Those sweet, soulful eyes say it all. This incredible little guy has so much love to share. We can't wait to see him snuggle right into his forever spot. He gets along well with other pups but is mostly looking for a warm lap to cuddle in.

This sweet boy came to us from Hitchcock Road Animal Services after he was picked up as a stray.

Little Rudy is currently snuggled up at our clinic awaiting a loving foster home. We would love for this sweetheart to find a soft place to land soon!

Carrot
Looks like: Pomeranian mix
Male, 8 years old (estimated), 15 pounds
How cute is little Carrot?! This handsome pup has a playful and independent spirit and his goofiness is wildly infectious! This fluff ball of joy is always ready to explore new environments or learn new tricks. Carrot is smart and energetic, eager to please and love his human!

He gets along great with dogs of all shapes and sizes and even seems uninterested in kitty companions!

Carrot joined POMDR after his loving guardian found that she could no longer take care of him.

Curious Carrot is currently boarding at our Monterey vet clinic searching for a foster home. He'd love to land in a warm bed for the holidays, maybe he join you?

Harold
Looks like: Schnauzer mix
Male, 8 years old (estimated), 22 pounds
Harold is one handsome pup with a heart full of love! He bonds quickly to his special person, but can exhibit resource guarding behavior when there is more than one person in the home. Harold prefers to live with is one special someone.

He is crate-trained and does really well with a routine. Harold is an intelligent dog and learns quickly. He absolutely loves car rides and walks, but he is leach reactive out in public which means he'll bark and pull when he sees other dogs. Our behavior team is working with Harold to help him feel more comfortable on leash out in the world and will continue to work with his adopter for three months after adoption to make sure he retains these good habits!

Harold needs to be the only pet in the home, as he does not do well around other dogs and cats. Harold is looking for his one special person to cuddle with, help him feel safe and loved, and to continue his ongoing training to becoming a good doggie citizen. Yes, Harold is a little bit of a challenge, but your patience and consistency with training will pay off and you will have the most devoted and wonderful companion.

This dapper pup came to us from Hitchcock Road Animal Services where he was surrendered by his former guardian.

Harold is currently cozy at our clinic, but we would love to get him into a loving foster home with some behavior experience that can continue his training.

Milo
Looks like: Chihuahua mix
Male, 6 years old (estimated), 8 pounds
If you're looking for a snuggle buddy, you've found a perfect pal in Milo. This little ball of affection bonds strongly with his caretaker, so you know that with Milo by your side, you'll always be surrounded by love. This sweet little guy wants nothing more than to spend the day with you, whether that means being at home, on a walk, or on a road trip. Milo will always be ready to cover you in kisses.

Milo can sometimes be anxious and vocal around new people or animals and can take a while to warm up to strange situations, so his ideal adopter will need to have some patience to help him overcome his fears. Milo may be happiest as the only apple of your eye, but he might also do well with another calm, small dog in the home.

Milo came to us after his senior guardian could no longer care for him.

Milo is currently residing with a loving foster but will be looking for a new foster starting in the new year. Could that be you?!

Pancho
Looks like: German Shepherd mix
Male, 12 years old (estimated), 79 pounds
Sweet senior Pancho came to us from Contra Costa Animal Services when they reached out for help with some seniors because their shelter was over capacity. Pancho is a loving, mellow boy who just wants to be wherever you are.

Sadly in the past few weeks, Pancho has declined significantly. He was diagnosed with cancer in his lungs. This unfortunate diagnosis paired with mobility issues from arthritis related joint pain and other health factors mean we have moved him to our hospice program. He will be cared for under the watchful eye of our vet team and soak in all of the love he can get.

Pancho is currently boarding at our Monterey vet clinic and would love to land in a foster home where he can relax. Pancho will also need to be seen at our Monterey vet clinic regularly for treatment . He's searching for a foster who is home most of the day as he requires a fair bit of support.
