Fur Fun is a foster based rescue. We can only take in a dog if we have the right foster home available. Our dogs come to us a variety of different ways, but most of them come directly from a shelter because they are in danger of being euthanized. Dogs end up at shelters for a variety of reasons; some were picked up as strays, some were dumped in a drop box at the shelter during the night, some were surrendered by owners no longer able to care for them.
Fur Fun matches a foster dog with a foster home. That's why our foster home application asks about your yard, other pets, children, and schedule. Putting the right dog in the right home makes it an enjoyable, rewarding experience for the foster home and the foster dog. We are with you every step of the way from being there to introduce a new foster into your home, to adopting your dog out to a furever home.
Fur Fun pays all the medical bills for a foster dog using our partner veterinarians. All dogs have a Rabies vaccination and a DHLPP vaccination, plus a heartworm test if they are over a year old. Flea, tick, and heartworm prevention medications are provided. Our volunteers help you with basic obedience training and socialization. We post the dogs on Petfinder, Rescue Me, and Adopt-a-Pet. We screen applications, schedule meet and greets with potential adopters, process applications, and do home visits and contracts.
