Sandy Paws Rescue's motto is "Dogs have a way of finding the people who need them," and it's true. Perhaps even for you too? This foster-based animal rescue organization based in Massachusetts is searching for dog lovers with space in their homes and hearts to temporarily care for a furry friend. Sandy Paws Rescue explained to their community that they're in need of foster homes for twelve dogs who will be coming to Massachusetts on Monday, August 26th, stating:
"Can you help one? Puppies, small adults and large adults. All dog friendly. Some are cat friendly too. Puppies are great with kids of any age. We will match the right dog for your household based on information provided in your foster application!"
Sandy Paws Rescue shared some information on Facebook about their foster program for those interested:
We are a state-approved and licensed rescue in MA. License #0272
Food and supplies are provided by Sandy Paws
Any medical expenses must be approved first, but are covered by Sandy Paws
Pickup is from the state-mandated isolation facility in Westport, MA
Foster homes can be located anywhere in MA or RI!
You do NOT need to be home 24/7. Most foster parents in our network work out of the home.
A fenced yard is not required! Apartment dwellers can foster too.
You will need to keep your foster dog until he/she is adopted. Average time in foster care is typically 2-6 weeks. You can help speed this up by providing photos and personality info for our team to share on social media!
We cannot accept breed-specific requests for fostering, as we don’t typically know the breed of our dogs. We can, however, typically accommodate if you are only able to foster puppies vs adults, or large dogs vs small.
Goodbye is the goal! Yes, it can be very difficult to say goodbye to your foster pup. But wouldn’t you rather experience a little heartbreak saying goodbye, as they go off to a loving family, versus a lot of heartbreak knowing you didn’t step up to save their life? A lot of our adoptive families stay in touch with their foster families and share updates!
