We're calling all dog-lovers to help with the amount of overcrowding in the shelters. With more fosters on hand, we can save more dogs and give them a second chance!
We are especially looking for a foster who can help with a sweet American bulldog named Bart. Bart is great with other dogs and people. He was rescued from the shelter after being returned by his previous family. Unfortunately, they were keeping him in the garage and when a visitor tried getting into the house from the outside of the garage, Bart thought they were an intruder and bit them on the hand. He was trying to defend and protect his home and had no idea who was coming through the garage, but unfortunately his family was not willing to work with him. He is very well-behaved and thriving in a short-term foster home, but we need a more long-term solution for him by this weekend. If you would like to help Bart, or any other dogs, please read on!
Ace of Hearts is a Non-Profit Dog Rescue based in Los Angeles that saves dogs from the shelters, giving them a new chance at life!
We need loving Fosters to provide temporary homes for rescued dogs while we seek "Furever" homes. Since we rescue from shelters, some dogs may be traumatized so we need people who will make them feel secure, comfortable and confident. It's incredibly gratifying when these shy & fearful dogs gain your trust. And it's just as gratifying to receive unconditional love from confident dogs. You will provide loving care & updates on their personalities and we will provide everything else (a bed, food, treats, toys, supplies & vet care).
WE NEED FOSTERS WHO HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH DOGS AND ARE COMFORTABLE WITH LARGE DOGS
Joining our foster program is an extremely rewarding experience - you get to help rehabilitate dogs that were left to die at the shelter, giving them a second chance to be adopted, our fosters are true heroes!
What we need from you:
-To be 21+ (if under 21, then to have parent approval)
-To foster until the dog is adopted - or at least 2-4 weeks if you can't make that commitment. (NOTE: If you cannot commit to a few weeks, BUT can commit to fostering for a few days in cases of emergency, please still reach out and let us know! It's always great to have fosters who can help in short-term cases)
-To have reliable transportation and be able to bring them to our adoption event in West Hollywood every other Saturday and to a vet of our choice for wellness appointments, spay/neuter appointments, and other appointments as necessary.
-To be comfortable with large breeds! We're a bully breed rescue and most of our pups weigh 50-90 pounds. PLEASE DO NOT REPLY IF YOU CAN ONLY FOSTER SMALL DOGS.
-To have NO CHILDREN UNDER 10, CATS, OR SMALL DOGS in your home (PLEASE do not inquire if you have children or cats, other LARGE dogs are okay! PLEASE do not inquire if you have small dogs)
-To be able to start immediately
