Submit an Application to Foster

We always have a need for short and long term foster families. Dogs usually come in with little to no advance warning, and we are often hard-pressed to find a foster home to help. Many of the dogs will be hosted at our facility in Oroville but we only have three indoor/outdoor runs. We have had up to 12 dogs at the same time! With foster applications on file, it is much easier for us to reach out and ask for assistance! We appreciate your offers of help, even if it’s just for one day or a few. The foster home is given first “dibs” on the dog they foster but that “dibs” needs to be given with five days of the dog being adoptable.

Some of these dogs have literally nowhere to go.
