Edinburg, Texas – Palm Valley Animal Society has an immediate need for short-term foster homes to prepare for multiple rescue transport operations that will be transferring dogs north to partner rescues in February 2020. Rescues require a 2-week quarantine period for transported animals, and providing time for the dogs in foster homes helps reduce stress prior to the trip.
Also, due to high intake numbers at the Trenton Center, finding temporary placement outside the shelter prior to transport opens up much-needed space for incoming animals – fostering one dog saves two lives, the one in your foster home and the one taking its place at the shelter.
- Who: Anyone can foster!
- How Long: 2-3 weeks
