FOTA is a 501(c)3 non-profit foster-based rescue that began in January 2010. We were established for the purpose of rescuing dogs from shelters. www.fotabr.org

We are not an open intake shelter. Since starting in 2010, FOTA has found forever homes for more than 7,000 animals from local shelters and our FASS re-home program. FOTA Alternative to Shelter Surrender (FASS) is a program where an owner or finder can foster a dog with the intent to have the dog re-homed. Located on our website (www.fotabr.org) FOSTER tab are instructions for applying to the FASS program. Visit our website and learn how you can become a member, donate, or volunteer!

A big thank you to Jonas. Jonas made this wonderful picnic table for FOTA. This is why he made this for us.

My name is Jonas Gruening and I am a student at University Laboratory School. I’ve loved fostering dogs over the past few years and now as part of a service project, I am raising funds to improve our local animal rescue by upgrading the seating in its outdoor areas, making it a more comfortable area for visitors, volunteers, and families looking to adopt.
Thank you so much Jonas for helping FOTA!!
