Foster Homes Needed

More foster homes are always desperately needed!  If you could open your home and heart to at least one golden (or more) a year, it would be greatly appreciated.  Our foster homes have been so wonderful taking foster dog after foster dog with little or no break in between.  Thank you for your continued support!

Our fostering team wishes to thank everyone who has taken in a foster or two when we asked for help recently.  Without your nurturing, caring and evaluating of our newest intakes, these dogs would have had to be kenneled and their adoption process delayed because of it.

If you have recently adopted/fostered, you do not need to go thru the process again.  If you have not adopted/fostered in the past few years, we would need you to apply online and go thru the process.  You can make a huge difference in a rescued golden’s life by fostering!

For more information, or if you can help, please email Foster (foster@grinrescue.org)  Thank you!
