Thinking of adopting but not sure you are ready for the commitment? Want to save a life and be rewarded in tail wags and kisses? Try fostering and become a part of Westchester Magazine's “Best Animal Rescue G Pet Rescue does not have a shelter and relies entirely on the generosity of foster homes to care for our dogs. The number of foster homes we have dictates the number of dogs we can save. Last year, Pet Rescue successfully placed over 800 cats and dogs into permanent, loving homes. This is thanks in large part to the work of our foster families who prepare our dogs The average foster lasts just a few weeks and all dogs are screened for health and temperament. We provide basic supplies, veterinary care, and guidance. You provide love, training, and a home. The care and attention of foster families allow Pet Rescue to expertly match our dogs with prospective homes. If you live in Westchester or Southern Fairfield counties and are willing to care for a foster dog, please submit an application and join the Pet Rescue family. Fostering is a fun and immensely rewarding experience you will never forget.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:  How long does fostering last? The average foster dog is adopted to a wonderful, forever family in less than three weeks. Of course, there are exceptions to any rule. Can I pick my foster dog? Some of the dogs listed on the Pet Rescue website are already in foster care. New foster families are carefully matched to a foster dog based on criteria provided by the family during the screening process. What happens if there is a problem with my foster dog?  Pet Rescue has both veterinarians and behavioral trainers to help foster families work through any problems with their foster dogs. If the situation is just not working out, foster dogs can be moved quickly to another foster home or temporary boarding facility. Can I adopt my foster dog? Foster families sometimes find it too difficult to let their foster dog go to a new home. While Pet Rescue would prefer you adopt out the do  g and save another life by fostering again, we understand that this is not always possible. In these cases, it is permissible to adopt your foster dog. However, Pet Rescue asks you decide within the first three days of fostering if you will adopt.Where do all the dogs come from? Pet Rescue works with several high-kill shelters in the South as well as locally. Most dogs are picked up as strays off the street or turned in by owners. Failure to spay/neuter leads to an endless cycle of unwanted dogs and pups.
