FOSTERING

Want to help Ace of Hearts save lives? Foster a dog, save a life!

One of the best ways you can help Ace of Hearts is volunteering to foster a dog. For each new foster home that opens up, we are able to save the life of another shelter dog on death row. Opening your heart and home to a dog in need can bring you joy and the satisfaction that comes from knowing you've made a difference in an animal's life. Simply put, fostering saves lives!

You provide the love and attention; we provide everything else! We provide you with food, treats, a bed, and any veterinary care the dog may need. (You call us to arrange.)

Interested? Some things to consider:

*Most of the dogs we rescue are between 50 and 90 pounds, so you must be comfortable with large dogs.

* We ask that you are away from home no more than 7 hours a day.

*You will need to transport the dog to/from adoption events at the West Hollywood Petco two-three Saturdays per month. If you have to miss one OCCASIONALLY, we can arrange alternate transportation.

*We do ask that you have at least some experience with dogs, but you don’t need to have dogs of your own.

*You must be able to commit to fostering for a minimum of two weeks at a time.

*You must be communicative, letting us know what the dog needs as well as general information about the dog’s personality and temperament.

We are also in NEED of dog-savvy people who are able to help maintain and continue TRAINING of some of our foster dogs! Dog training experience is a PLUS, but not necessary!
