Please email foster@anticruelty.org for more information about the candidates below.
Name: Dexter A51517690
Age: 3 Years (56lbs)
Reason for Foster: Adoption Ambassador
Length of Stay: 2 - 4 weeks
I’ve been at ACS since: 11/12/2022
I am NOT on meds.
I am very friendly and love attention! I am also energetic and playful and will require lots of mental and physical enrichment and stimulation throughout the day! I get along with other dogs, but my energy might be too high for some.
Name: Po'Boy
Age: 7 Years (70lbs)
Reason for Foster: Adoption Ambassador
Length of Stay: 2-4 weeks
I’ve been at ACS since: 01/12/2023
I am NOT on meds.
I am an older dog who loves attention! I am friendly and social but would love a quiet foster home. My foster home must be adults only as I have a history of resource guarding. I can get overwhelmed by groups of people so I will need time and space to adjust. I am potty trained so I will need to go outside 3x a day. I was never crate trained, so I have a hard time being re-kennel.
Name: Cutie Elliott A51899124
Age: 2 Years (44lbs)
Reason for Foster: Adoption Ambassador
Length of Stay: 2-4 Weeks
I’ve been at ACS since: 1/18/2023
I am ON meds.
I am friendly, warm up quick, and is treat motivated. I am strong on leash and sometimes give my handler a hard time when putting on a leash. I should be walked on a harness and will need to work on checking in with my walker during walks. I do not appear to know any commands but can easily learn since I am food motivated. I don't guard but I am underweight and eat very fast. To prevent any guarding behaviors from developing I should be fed in a private space or in my crate and left alone during meals. You can feed me with a slow feeder! I enjoy mostly stuffy toys and love when people chase me when playing.
Name: Reeces A51740353
Age: 6 Years (52lbs)
Reason for Foster: Adoption Ambassador
Length of Stay: 2-4 Weeks
I’ve been at ACS since: 12/20/2022
I am NOT on meds.
I am a bouncy, elderly dog who tends to pull on the leash, so I will need someone to help leash train me. I am friendly with people of all ages. I get along with other dogs but would prefer a laid-back pup. I am not interested in play, and I am less tolerant of bouncy dogs. I knows how to sit, and I am food motivated. My recent doggy date said I am loving, friendly, and a good listener.
Name: Stray A52313538
Age: 3 Years (large size)
Reason for Foster: Medical
Length of Stay: 4 Weeks
I’ve been at ACS since: 03/26/2023
I am ON meds.
I was hit by a car. I will need exercise restriction for 4-6 weeks and a recheck in 4 weeks. I cannot be walked in the shelter since takes a long time and stairs to get out of the building. I should be crated when my foster is gone, and should not be allowed to run, jump, or climb stairs. I am ok to have a short easy walk out to yard to bathroom while on leash then immediately back inside. I am on 2 pain meds at least until recheck.

Name: Dot A52245551
Age: 7 Months
Reason for Foster: Medical
Length of Stay: 3-5 Weeks
I’ve been at ACS since: 03/15/2023
I am ON an eye ointment.
I need help recovering from an Upper Respiratory Infection. I am currently on eye meds that are given twice a day. I can be a picky eater but that can be a result of my URI since I can’t smell the food and therefore loose appetite. You can try and warm up smelly, fish flavored food in the microwave to help me eat. I am also shy, so I need someone to help socialize me.
Name: Elton A52223876
Age: 3 Years
Reason for Foster: Behavior
Length of Stay: 3-4 Weeks
I’ve been at ACS since: 03/12/2023
I am ON anxiety/pain meds.
I am looking for a calm, quiet home where I can decompress and come out in my own terms. My foster should respect when I don't want to be handle. I have high fear/anxiety at the shelter, so I am hiding and avoiding human interaction. I was noted to have a sensitive back and possible handling sensitivity noted by my previous owner. I can be a picky eater so I would need someone to monitor my eating habits.

Poof came from a house full of unsocialized cats. He is very shy and under-socialized, but is food motivated and especially loves pink (salmon and tuna) Churu. Poof has a few swollen paw pads, which may be due to an immune-mediated disease. He needs pain medicine and long-term doxycycline.
