| I went to my local humane society and filled out a lengthy application, gave them references etc. They called me 2 months later, and I was able to take care of two kittens that were motherless. When they were old enough to be adopted they were placed in loving homes, by the humane society. It was a lot of work, but well worth it!! Kathy Sorry, I just reread your thread, I missed the yorkie part. I'm sure somone else can help you. Last edited by katcarasella; 01-07-2008 at 08:02 PM. |

Maddy my big old (10 years 85 pounds) bear dog (1/2 chow chow 1/2 golden retriver) that is outside i found her on petfinder about 2 years ago and i seen she was 2 days from being put down and i emailed thema and told them if i lived closer i would come and snatch that baby up in a heartbeat well the lady emails me back and ask if i could meet her half way well i couldn't at the time because of everything i had going on well the next thing i know i get a call asking if i still want her and i said well of course if i had a way to get her i would and she said well be at your local wal-mart at such and such time and i will have her there this lady drove over 3 hours to bring her to me and then ask for nothing in return just that i give this baby a good home but i of course gave her some money for gas and her driving anyway. But I know they are people in those shelters that love those animals and would go out of their way to help them if they could just find the people willing to take them in long enough to find those homes that is what i want to be i want to be one of those willing to care for them until they find their forever home by the way we still have maddy and she is happy and healthy and very much loved and to think just 2 years ago she was on doggie death row and some wonderful angel brought her to us because she cared so much | |

| Hello I'm a foster mom. If you want to foster you should first start your search on petfinder and find a rescue or shelter that you want to join. Just keep this in mind their are many so read through each rescue call them up if you have to just to get a feel of the rescue. THe last thing you want to do is join a group that you don't like. Each group has their rules and regulations regarding becoming a foster parent. So good luck if you have any questions please ask. |
