Welcome to CanineFostering.com

CanineFostering.com is a site dedicated to those kind hearted people who rescue dogs from various adverse situations, most commonly being housed in pro-kill shelters. We aim to share our stories of dog fostering and provide resources to those who may be considering rescuing a dog and those who might be new to fostering. See our about page for more information on us, and by all means, we invite you to participate in this blog by posting comments to individual blog entries.

If you are not in position to provide for a dog in trouble directly, we strongly urge you to donate to a rescue organization, a no-kill shelter, or post a link back to us to spread the word! The organization we volunteer for in Northern Illinois is H.E.L.P., and they will welcome your donation. We will soon have a downloadable Widget available for blog updates as well as other means of staying connected to CanineFostering.com. Simply by keeping the conversation going we are doing a service!
