💜💛🐾 Meet Evertrust! 🐾💛💜

After spending over a year in the shelter, Evertrust finally got the chance to experience life outside his kennel through a foster stay. What started as one night turned into two weeks, and he absolutely blossomed!

During his time in foster, Evertrust learned to walk on a leash, play with toys, enjoy zoomies, and make friends with other dogs. He's crate trained, has been improving his house manners, and is incredibly affectionate once he trusts you.

One of the biggest things we learned? Evertrust LOVES other dogs! He would thrive in a home with a confident, friendly canine companion who can help show him the ropes.

When he returned to the shelter, he kept making progress! He's now walking out of his kennel on his own and even going on outings with his new buddy.

Evertrust is proof that fostering changes lives. Sometimes, all a dog needs is a little time, patience, and the opportunity to discover the world beyond the shelter.

💜 Want to help Evertrust keep making progress? We're looking for a foster home where he can continue building confidence and enjoying life outside the shelter!

📧 Email [email protected] to set up a time to meet Evertrust.

You don't have to adopt to change a life. Sometimes, you just have to open your home. 💛🐾

💜💛 SICK DOG FOSTER NEEDED FOR CARRIE! 💛💜

Meet Carrie, a 10-year-old Chihuahua weighing just 5 pounds who needs a quiet place to rest and recover. 🐾

Carrie is currently battling an upper respiratory infection and needs a foster home where she can get some much-needed TLC while she completes her antibiotics.

She's an easygoing little lady who is currently spending most of her day sleeping. She can use puppy pads AND go potty outside, so she's an easy guest! She especially loves being tucked in with cozy blankets. All she really needs is a warm place to rest, regular meals, and someone to make sure she gets her medication while she heals.

⚠️ Important: Carrie is considered contagious to other dogs, so she would do best being isolated from other dogs while she recovers.

Could you open your home to this tiny senior while she gets back on her feet? Even a temporary foster stay could make all the difference!

🏡 Interested in fostering Carrie? Come visit us at our main shelter location any day between noon and 6 PM to meet her and take her home for foster!

💜 Hospice Foster Needed for Candyman 💛

🐾 Candyman is looking for a loving hospice foster to spend his time outside of the shelter, surrounded by comfort and care.

He experiences intermittent breathing difficulties with exertion, even with minimal activity, but breathes comfortably when resting. He has recently started medication to help improve his comfort and needs a foster who can administer oral medications, monitor his breathing, and keep an eye on his overall quality of life.

We don't know how Candyman does with other animals, but given his current medical needs, he will need a calm environment where he can relax and enjoy a slower pace rather than engage in play with other pets.

We would love to get Candyman into a home where he can enjoy comfort, love, and the best quality of life possible. 💜

If you can open your home to Candyman, please email [email protected].

💜🐾 URGENT: TONY NEEDS A NEW FOSTER ASAP! 🐾💜

Tony’s current foster is moving, and there isn’t much time left to find him a new foster or adopter! His foster is desperate to find him another safe home before the move so he doesn’t have to return to the shelter.

Tony struggled greatly in the shelter, spinning in his kennel and becoming overwhelmed by the noise. When his current foster took him home for a break, he relaxed almost immediately. They couldn’t bear to bring him back after seeing how well he did in a home!

💜 Here’s what makes Tony so special:

🏡 House-trained, quiet, and comfortable being home alone

🧸 Loves stuffies, chew toys, belly rubs, and cuddling

🚗 Enjoys car rides, walks, runs, or simply relaxing by your side

🧠 Smart, knows basic commands, and walks well on leash

🐕 Can thrive as an only dog or with a friendly canine companion

Tony takes anxiety medication provided by the shelter, but his current foster has seen him settle comfortably into home life. Any medication changes would need to be discussed with the WCRAS medical team.

His foster will send him with his favorite toys, chews, and beds to help him settle into his next home!

💔 His current foster is heartbroken to have to move him. They’ve seen how happy and relaxed Tony can be in a home, and they desperately want him to have that opportunity again.

⏰ TIME IS RUNNING OUT! Can you foster or adopt Tony before his foster has to move? Even better, know someone looking for an easygoing, affectionate companion? Please reach out!

📩 Contact [email protected] to ask about fostering Tony.

💜 Please share far and wide. Help Tony find his next soft place to land!

FOSTER FOUND- THANK YOU!
💚🐾 Foster Plea: Emerald Needs a Chance! 🐾💚

Meet Emerald, a 2-month-old kitten who needs a special foster to help him through the next few weeks of recovery.

Emerald has nerve damage in his left front leg and needs a quiet, comfortable place to rest while we see if his leg can improve. His treatment plan includes three weeks of pain medication, rest, and gentle range-of-motion exercises for his affected leg 2–3 times daily. After three weeks, he’ll return to WCRAS for a recheck to assess his progress.

Unfortunately, there is a high chance Emerald may ultimately need an amputation if his leg doesn’t improve. For now, we want to give him the opportunity to heal and see what’s possible with supportive care.

We’re looking for a foster who can provide a safe space for Emerald to rest, keep up with his exercises and medication, and give this little guy the care and comfort he deserves while he recovers. 💚

Can you give Emerald a place to land while he heals? Even a few weeks in a loving home could make a world of difference for this little kitten.

📩 Interested in fostering Emerald? Please reach out via email to [email protected].
Can't foster? Please share this to help get the word out about Emerald!

Every kitten deserves a chance to heal, and Emerald would love to do it somewhere cozy! 💜🐾

💜💛 Short-Term Foster Homes Needed! 💛💜

Three very skinny dogs recently came into WCRAS and need a safe place to recover, gain weight, and get ready for their spay/neuter surgeries. They’ll likely only need about 2 weeks in foster, so this is a great opportunity to help without a long-term commitment!

We do NOT need one person to take all three dogs! Ideally, we’d love to find a separate foster home for each of them so they can recover in individual homes. Even fostering just one of these pups would make a huge difference!

Garnet and Cinnabar are in the greatest need of foster homes, as they are the skinniest of the three and could really benefit from time recovering in a home environment.

🐾 Meet the pups who need you:

💎 Garnet – 2 years old, female, 29 lbs (black and white)
🌈 Opal – 2 years old, female, 40 lbs (tan and white)
❤️ Cinnabar – 1 year old, male, 20 lbs (smaller brown dog)

These dogs need time, good meals, and a comfortable place to rest while they gain weight and become healthy enough for surgery. Just a couple of weeks in a foster home could make all the difference!

🏡 Can you foster Garnet, Cinnabar, OR Opal? You only need to take one! Come visit WCRAS any day between 12 PM and 6 PM to get started.

Every foster home makes room for another animal in need. Help us keep choosing couches over kennels! 💜💛🐾
