Foster - “encourage or promote the development of something" My name is Rhiannon and I am currently a high school student planning to become a vet.
Needless to say…I love animals!! Because of that passion, I am em-“bark”-ing on a community service project called FosterPaw Support. I am raising money to assist local rescue agencies in providing support to those invaluable foster families. Have you ever thought about fostering a dog, or cat, or even a sweet little bunny? Becoming a foster means you are able to provide a nurturing environment fo
r our four-legged friends waiting to be adopted. Local rescue agencies are always looking for people and families with a genuine love of animals who can temporarily open their homes (and hearts) to shelter animals. Some of those animals may have special needs, or may need to be saved from a kill shelter, or may need some help getting prepared for a fur-ever home. Foster volunteers can assist a shelter animal in becoming, in some cases, healthier and, in all cases, better acclimated to life in a new home. Shelter animals have a much better chance of being adopted after being fostered since now that animal has a “voice”….someone who can talk about their personality, how they behave, how they interact with other humans and pets! However, being a foster does mean there is a financial commitment, and that’s where FosterPaw Support will jump in. Some of our local rescues can supply foster families with the basics…food, leashes, collars, bedding, crates, etc., but most of the time the rescues can only cover vet care and medication. That’s why I am starting FosterPaw Support. My goal is to build a reserve, through this campaign and additional fundraising efforts in the future, that will provide the rescue agencies with items for the animals that will support the foster families. Fostering can be a rewarding experience, and FosterPaw Support wants to assist those volunteers who are providing animals transition from shelter to a new adoptive family. My hope, and goal, is to send the shelter pets to the foster homes with all the basics! With your donations, I will prepare FosterPaw Support packages with food, beds, toys, collars, whatever is needed, to send with each animal. Having foster volunteers is so important to our local rescue groups and without those loving individuals, some dogs and cats (and bunnies) might have to be euthanized. Foster homes give those animals a chance to be treated medically, if needed, and be socialized. Any time with a family, away from a kennel, improves the physical, and most important, the emotional life of a shelter animal. FosterPaw Support is grateful for all donations, no matter the amount. Let’s encourage fostering by supporting the wonderful individuals and families who open their homes to some very sweet furry friends!

Shadow is a mature lady looking for love. Maybe Shadow could be a contender for the Golden Bachelorette? As a mature lady, she knows what is important in life and she is loyal and true. She loves to cuddle up with her human and watch TV, read a book or just take a nap. She knows what really matters is quality time with the ones you love. So skip the puppy nonsense and adopt Shadow.
Shadow is a beautiful mature Redbone Coonhound with knowing expressive eyes. She is 8 years old, 70 pounds, and could stand to lose a few, but she enjoys being a couch potato so may need some encouragement to get out for walks. However, she enjoys spending time with her humans, so if you go for a walk, she'll want to tag along. She has a very laid-back personality and would be a wonderful companion to someone who would enjoy a four-legged friend to spend their days and nights with. She is OK with other dogs but needs a proper introduction and would probably not enjoy an energetic K9 playmate. We do not know how she is with cats or young children. SHADOW is currently in a foster home with a senior woman and they get along just fine. Let's give this sweet senior girl a warm, comfortable, loving home to rest her head and enjoy this stage of her life. No doubt you'll become best buds. Contact Patti at [email protected]

Jamie wants to be your Valentine. After all, Love is a four-legged word! And Love is just a tail wag away with this girl! ❤❤❤ She is an adorable boxer pup, just over a year old with beautiful markings and all the enthusiasm of a puppy. She is very sweet and loves all people; very affectionate. She would enjoy a home with a fenced yard so she can burn off some energy. Definitely would love a four-legged buddy to play with too.
Adopt Jamie and you'll say "You had me at woof, my love!"
She is spayed and up to date on shots. Good with other dogs and kids. No cats as she can't resist the temptation to chase them. JAMIE is currently in the Baltimore area just waiting for her forever home. She is expressive, energetic, playful, and gorgeous. Contact: [email protected]

Hey there dog lovers - we need your help. Right now, the biggest challenge we have is finding foster homes for dogs. We need a foster home for every dog we rescue. When you foster a dog, you are saving a dog's life. It's the most rewarding and life changing thing you can do for a shelter dog. Please consider fostering even if it's just for a two-week period. There are some great dogs that need fosters, and we would love to talk to you about how you could be a foster.
When you foster The Rescue Express covers the costs of veterinary visits and the dog will be up to date on all of its vaccinations. You provide some love and care.
Please consider making a difference in the life of a dog. You can review our foster volunteer form here: https://form.jotform.com/220435885063154

The rescue lady said I should write a Valentine's letter to help me find a kind adopter and a forever family.
Dear Valentine,
My name is Baxter. I dream of being able to cuddle up with you on the sofa, resting my head on your lap, and having you run your fingers through my fur. I am not fussy so you can pick the TV show or Movie you want to watch. I just want to cuddle next to you while you watch it. Snacks would be nice, I mean snacks are always good while watching TV … right? Did I mention you don’t need to worry about cracker crumbs on your sofa if you adopt me? I have that covered. Maybe we could get some of that fancy canned food for dinner? I hear it’s really yummy and perfect for a special night with my Valentine.
If you adopt me, I promise to be at your side for every adventure. I promise to be the first thing you see when you open your door after a long day at work. No matter how bad your day is, I promise to remind you that you are the most amazing and wonderful person in the entire world. I am there for you on the good days too, let’s celebrate and play and be silly because life is good when we are together. I will be there for you on the good days and the bad, “for better or worse” as they say. I just want to be there with you through it all.
So if you want a cuddle on the couch I am all in. I am also the guy to take on a hike in the woods or a walk in the park. My foster mom says I am great at leash walking. Want a partner to get those steps in? I am ready to walk proudly by your side.
Will you be my Valentine?
Sincerely,
Baxter
P.S.: I even took a bath for you so now I smell nice too.
Meet BAXTER!
This stunningly handsome guy is an approximately 2 year old male American bully breed.
Baxter is around 50 lbs and has a beautiful chestnut color.
Baxter loves running and playing and would do best in a home with a fenced yard. He does love going for walks also!
Baxter would definitely make a great hiking buddy and he’s up for adventures.
Baxter does great on the leash and is not dog-reactive when he sees other dogs. Baxter does need to be the solo dog in a home at this time, king of his castle. He is monogamous and loves to give and receive undivided attention to his person, he is extremely people-oriented. He has had a tough past, he was found emaciated and in not good shape as a stray. He will give you unconditional love and is a people pleaser and major snuggler!
He is very loving and affectionate, the definition of a cuddle bug.
Baxter has done well with older children so far. He truly wants nothing more than to please his human. He will reward you with undying love and loyalty.
This very sweet boy is so ready for his loving forever home. Could it be you? Contact Christine for more information: [email protected]
