Foster Tips from HASS: Human Animal Support ...

Have you noticed? Fostering has become increasingly popular over the last few years! Over the course of the Covid pandemic, unprecedented numbers of New Yorkers and Tennesseans joined our Foster Roster, offering to temporarily house homeless shelter pets during stay-at-home orders. With this growth in fostering comes the recognition that it is time to move away from the old shelter model, the traditional “pound” many people might have in mind. Moving towards the foster-centric model is the way of the future.

No, "Pandemic Pups" Aren't Being Returned to ...

What happens to these “pandemic pets” when people return to work and no longer have the time or resources to care for them? If we are to believe recent headlines in the media, people are heartlessly dumping their “pandemic puppies” in shelters. USA Today published an article earlier this month, “Everyone wanted a puppy when the pandemic began, but now those dogs are being returned.” But are these headlines accurate?

A Far-Away Foster Match for a NJ Family

One door closes, and another door opens. Fostering made this incredible rescue story possible! At the same time that this New York family found out their dog was diagnosed with terminal cancer, Jones was entering foster care in Alabama after a long stay in the shelter. “Little did anyone know this was beginning of his long journey to us! […]. When I look back at the synchronicity of our stories and how many people were involved to get our boy home I am still amazed and I can’t help but say it was ‘meant to be!’ Thanks to Foster Dogs’ willingness to look beyond the immediate obstacle of distance, Jones the formerly unwanted dog is finally home and Beatrice is grieving no longer.”

“Friday Night Foster Club” Live Event Celebrates 22 Episodes

“Friday Night Foster Club” Live Event Celebrates 22 Episodes

Launched in March 2020, Foster Dogs started an Instagram Live event called the Friday Night Foster Club to tackle the unique challenge of helping dogs in need without the benefit of in-person adoption events and meet and greets. Although the world is changing, the fact that these dogs still need a home isn’t. In fact, we think we all need a friend now more than ever! The Friday Night Foster Club was born out of a desire to continue serving our rescue partners by providing virtual adoption events that would allow homeless dogs national exposure while also raising money and awareness for non-profits that are near and dear to our hearts! Even in these uncertain times, many amazing dogs have been able to find their forever home!
