🐾🐾🐾🐾 Let’s talk fostering! 🐾🐾🐾🐾

It is THE most important piece of foster-based rescue. Without fosters, there is no rescue. It’s as simple as that.

Fostering provides a temporary place for dogs to decompress and learn about socialization, learn to trust, learn that all people aren’t bad, learn that their next meal will be coming, learn manners through gentle guidance, and learn that they are loved and safe. Is it always convenient for the foster? No, it isn’t. However, while it may be temporarily inconvenient, it pales in comparison to the difficulties a dog faces trying to survive as a stray; freezing or starving to death, being attacked by other animals, getting hit by a car, intentionally being harmed by cruel people, or being in abusive situations and living in constant fear.

I implore you to consider fostering. It is the first step in saving the lives of these innocents. Everything you need to foster is supplied by Friends of Macon County Missouri Animals.

Now the bad news. We are unable to intake any dogs at this time due to a lack of fosters. I have transferred numerous highly adoptable dogs to other rescues over the past several months, adding to the burdens of those rescues. The reason? Yep, you guessed it. No local fosters.

If you have ideas/suggestions/workable solutions, please plan to attend our January meeting and share those ideas with us. Keep in mind that the ideas will need to work for a very rural area and big city ideas may not be doable, but I am open to any and all suggestions.🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
