Puppies in need of a little love

I got an e-mail this morning from the RVSPCA. They have a plethora of puppies that need fostering. They are looking for folks who can take these babies in and care for them until they are old enough to be adopted.

Foster care is so important to puppies. It helps them learn basic social skills that make it much more likely they will be adopted and adjust quickly to their new homes.

And every puppy in foster care opens up kennel space at the shelter for an adoptable adult dog at Animal Control who is in desperate need of a home.

If you or anyone you know can take in an orphan for a few weeks, please contact Ann Marie Sweeney at 344-4840, ext. 208.
