These 2 have been waiting to find their forever homes for a staggering 6 months. The shelter is a stressful place for them, so they could use your help! We are looking for short-term fosters who are willing to welcome Ozzy or Hope into their homes for 5 days or more. Why 5 days? Long-stay shelter animals like Hope and Ozzy will need time to decompress when they leave the shelter. It typically takes a dog 5 or more days to decompress and show their true personality in the home. A 5-day foster retreat can give us insight into how Ozzy and Hope will settle and act in a home. This gleaned information will help us better support them and their future adopters when they finally find their forever homes! Do you think you could be a "5 to thrive" foster!? Fill out an application to foster today!

They came in together as strays, so their background is unknown, but it’s evident that Blue and Nessa love one another. The pair has provided comfort to each other through their stay at the shelter, and we’re hoping to keep them together in foster until they can find a forever home as a bonded pair. Blue is receiving treatment for Lyme disease, and since starting his daily antibiotics he’s been feeling much better! These two are as sweet as they come; while a bit shy at first, they are lovable and playful after a brief introduction. Are you able to provide a temporary home to these pals? Please reach out for more information!
