We Need Fosters for Large Dogs

WE NEED FOSTERS.

There’s no other way to put it—we’ve been at critical capacity for over a year and it’s showing no signs of slowing down. Some days, it feels like we just can’t catch our breath.

Today, we have more than 500 dogs on campus, but more animals are arriving every day, and it’s difficult to keep up. We get dogs adopted, but twice as many take their place. This isn’t even our busy season yet. We need your help to save lives.

We desperately need fosters to give these dogs a break from the shelter. Even just a few days or a week can change a dog’s life.

Fostering saves lives. It reduces stress, helps us learn about each dog’s personality, and makes them more adoptable. We provide food and supplies—you just provide a temporary home.

HOW TO HELP:

  • Foster a medium or large dog (6+ months, 35+ lbs) VIEW ALL AVAILABLE DOGS
  • 655 North Mojave Road, Las Vegas, NV, 89101
  • Come to the foster window in our adoption building (Now through Saturday, March 15th)
  • Save time before you arrive—fill out a foster application

If you’ve read this far, thank you.

We’re worried about going into summer, but with your help, we will always find a way to help the animals.
