Fostering Dogs

The Friends of the Manchester Animal Shelter is in need of foster homes for dogs and puppies.

Every year the Friends of the Manchester Animal Shelter saves thousands of animal's lives. As the number of animals that our shelter sees increases annually, so does the number of animal who need foster homes. By being a foster parent you allow us to make a difference in the lives of even more animals. These animals that you help will go on to be adopted by loving homes. You will touch three lives in the process - your own, the foster animal and the adoptive family. What a rewarding experience!

Please read this first before doing an application: Dog Foster Information (PDF)

The shelter will provide all the veterinary care and food. The only thing we ask you to provide is tender loving care. If you are interested in fostering, please fill out an online foster application.
