The Humane Society of Harford County is urgently asking the community to open their hearts and homes to foster vulnerable kittens in need.
Many of the kittens arriving at the shelter are newborns without their mother and require frequent feedings, constant monitoring and a quiet place to grow. Shelter staff say every day these kittens spend in the shelter increases their risk of illness, making foster homes more critical than ever.
The shelter provides all supplies, medical care, training and support, you provide the love.
While kitten fosters are the greatest need, the Humane Society of Harford County is also looking for dog fosters, medical fosters and both short-term and long-term foster families.
Adults 18 and older with reliable transportation who can bring foster pets to scheduled checkups and vaccine appointments are encouraged to apply.
For more information or to apply to become a foster, visit: https://www.harfordshelter.org/foster-a-pet.

Meet Pluto! 🐾

Pluto is a 2-year-old mixed breed who is looking for a family that will appreciate his silly personality, help him continue building confidence, and give him all the love he deserves.

Pluto is a total goofball with a heart of gold. This playful pup absolutely loves his toys and enjoys taking his time searching through the toy bins until he finds the perfect one for playtime. His favorites are stuffed toys!

Pluto previously lived with two adults and was able to enjoy free roam of the home. His previous family shared that he had zero accidents in the house and was a great house companion. He also settled quickly in a crate, making him a great candidate for a family willing to continue positive crate training.

This handsome guy is a sweet and sensitive pup who can be nervous around loud sounds. He may need a little extra reassurance when things feel overwhelming, but with patience, a consistent routine, and a supportive family, Pluto can continue to gain confidence.

Pluto prefers having all of the attention (and butt-scratches) to himself, so a home without other pets would suit him best.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will keep you entertained with his silly antics, shower you with love, and be your one-and-only best friend, Pluto may be the perfect match. Come meet this lovable goofball and see why he’s so special!

🎉 Meet our Foster of the Month for August: Greg!

This is Greg's third year of fostering for the Humane Society of Harford County. So far, he has fostered four dogs, focusing on pit bull terriers, a breed that is often misunderstood. Greg enjoys fostering because it's a "win-win" situation: the foster dog gets a moment to relax in a home environment, letting out its true personality over time, while he gets canine companionship, fresh air on long walks, and a special bond with an even more special animal!

Greg's first time fostering was his most memorable. He fostered a female pittie named Aspen for several months, who was eventually adopted by a family that he still stays in contact with to this day, often introducing his fosters to Aspen when he can.

Greg also volunteers at local shelters in his home-away-from-home in Florida, walking dogs and volunteering at local adoption events.

Thank you Greg for all that you do, and congratulations! 🐶🐾
