Loving Fosters Needed! Love a Dog This Holiday Season!
Looking to spread some extra love and joy this holiday season? Ace of Hearts Dog Rescue is seeking passionate fosters to provide temporary or long-term homes for our rescue dogs. By fostering, you’ll not only save a dog from a high-kill shelter but also be part of their journey toward finding a forever family.
Fostering is an incredibly rewarding experience, and we’ll provide all the supplies, food, and medical care your foster dog needs. Plus, we offer a stipend to cover gas for medical appointments and adoption events. Whether you’re in it for the long haul or just have a couple of weeks to spare this holiday season, we’d love to have you join our team!
What You Need to Know Before Signing Up:
Please read thoroughly to ensure fostering is the right fit for you:
- Must be 21 years or older.
- No children under the age of 8 in the home.
- No small dogs or cats in the home (larger dogs are okay).
- Comfortable with larger dogs (50-90 lbs on average).
- Must be okay fostering shelter dogs with unknown backgrounds.
- Adoption events are mandatory: Attend every other Saturday at the Petco in West Hollywood (this is also when supplies and stipends are provided).
- Approval from all roommates, family members, landlords, etc., is required before fostering.
Why Fostering Matters:
Every day, countless dogs face euthanasia simply because shelters are overcrowded. By fostering, you give these dogs a safe and loving environment to decompress and heal. While some may come with quirks—like needing potty training or extra patience—you’ll see firsthand how love and care can transform a scared shelter dog into a happy, confident companion.
We are always looking for long-term fosters who can commit to at least a four-week minimum (ideally until the dog is adopted), just so they don't have to move around so much. However, we are also always happy to have fosters who can help out short-term for emergencies or the holidays. A one- to two-week commitment can still save a life!
This holiday season, you can be their miracle!
We are actively looking for a long-term foster for our sweet boy, Axel.
Axel
- Meet Axel, a 4-year-old Labrador/Aussie Shepherd mix with endless energy and a big heart.
- At 100 lbs, he’s a strong and active boy who loves hiking, running, and playing with other dogs.
- Axel thrives in quiet, adult-only homes where his people can give him plenty of attention and guidance.
- While he’s great with dogs of all sizes, busy streets and loud environments can make him uneasy. He’s working on his confidence, and a foster who understands his needs will help him shine.
- Axel is house-trained and healthy, and he’s ready for a foster who can keep up with his zest for life!
Why Foster During the Holidays?
There’s no better way to spread holiday cheer than by giving a rescue dog a warm and loving place to call home. Whether you’re curled up watching holiday movies or taking a winter walk, fostering is a wonderful way to share the joy of the season.
