Foster homes Desperately Needed!

Foster homes are the backbone of MABBR. Without dedicated foster homes we simply couldn't rescue dogs. MABBR has a strong foster home network of volunteers, however with all of the recent media hysteria, there are more bully dogs dying in the shelters than we have ever seen before. We are faced daily with dozens of pleas for perfectly wonderful dogs that will not make it to the next morning and there is nothing we can do for them. We NEED more foster homes.

It is getting colder and we know from experience that with winter coming, we will get more desperate pleas for abandoned dogs that have absolutely nowhere to go.

Fostering a dog is one of the most important gifts you can give to a rescue dog. Most of the dogs in our program have waited their whole lives to be in a loving home. Not only does fostering give them the gift of life, but it is more than likely the first time they've been treated with such kindness and compassion. Many rescue dogs have never even been in a home before. The first time you have a foster dog in your home and see the transformation when they finally realize they are safe and loved - it is the MOST precious and special emotion. It's a gift that keeps our foster homes going.

Even though fostering is a very rewarding, fun, and special experience, it is important to know that it is not all easy! Fostering is hard work. Most of the dogs need work. Help learning manners, crate training, walking on a leash, etc. These dogs have been failed their whole lives and it's up to us to help them become fun-loving pets. Experienced MABBR volunteers will work with our foster homes every step of the way to help ensure their experience and that of the dogs is a success.
