‼️DONATE NOW AND DOUBLE YOUR DONATION‼️

We still need $1731 of our $2500 to unlock our generous match!

Donate for the over 10 large dog lives saved because of our Paws on the Block program! Our number of large dog fosters is pretty low and this program allows us to save more lives! These dogs live and work with participants at the Folsom State Prison to learn obedience, socialization and manners. This is a 6-8 week program and then the dogs are made available for adoption!

Donate for the future Chulas, the Orions, the Dodgers and to the dogs currently in our program. They are fully vetted before starting training and FDR takes care of all their vetting needs while in the care of the participants as well as supplying all food, equipment, crates, leashes, collars, beds and treats for each dog.

Stay tuned to meet the newest additions to Paws on the Block!

🐾🟨Paws on the Block 🟨🐾

You might have noticed that Georgia was on the adoption board this week and we wanted to share a bit more about her journey. In her first amazing home, the older resident pup wasn’t thrilled about sharing space with a bouncy puppy. Her next stop brought out the wild side of the younger resident dog and even though they loved to play it wasn’t a good match with the training the younger pup still needed. We learned so much about her during this journey and were amazed at how resilient and flexible she is. Both families thought she was absolutely perfect. The good news is this journey led her to her forever home—she found her people who had patiently waited for her ♥️♥️♥️

Now, Georgia’s living the good life with a family that adores her. She spends her days going on bike rides, running free on family land, playing with dog cousins, snuggling on the couch, and loyally trailing her mom and dad from room to room.

We’re so grateful to her new family not only for giving her a loving home but for their generous donation of $200 and several handmade puppy blankets at her adoption. Georgia’s journey reminds us: sometimes it takes a few steps to get to where you’re meant to be.

🎉❤️Donate for the pups like Cosmo and Kramer, who would not have made it out of the shelter alive had we not been able to say yes to pulling them❤️🎉

Many dogs from the shelters that we pull have not been fully vaccinated, spayed or neutered, dewormed, microchipped or received flea treatment or heartworm prevention.

Most of the time, our adoption fee barely covers the cost of vetting a new dog, and they certainly don’t cover them if there’s any unexpected medical, even something as small as needing antibiotics adds up with the cost of a vet appointment and the medication.

Donate so we can continue to say yes to the dogs that need little more than the basics and the dogs that need miracles.

❤️ HELP US HELP MORE OF THEM ❤️

Meet the newest members of the FDR family, Franklin Gothic, Cambria, Arial and Verdana. Franklin was facing euthanasia as he was a long termer at a WAY overcrowded shelter and by pulling three smalls, we’re hoping that opened an additional kennel for them, saving another life. Donate to their and the future care of more FDR pups.

🎉OUR DONATION LINK IS OPEN FOR BIG DAY OF GIVING🎉

Our biggest fundraiser of the year has BEGUN!

Donate for dogs like Edith Ann who was a senior waiting in the back of an overcrowded shelter as “rescue only” for nearly a month as she was in need of mammary tumor removal and spay. Because of donations from our supporters, we could say yes to bringing her into FDR and get her the surgery she needed! Now shes “Baby” in her forever home and so loved. Donate to save more Edith Ann’s out there!

There are many ways to donate to save more lives in 2025.

‼️✨HELP US HIT OR EXCEED OUR GOAL FOR THIS YEAR’S BDOG✨‼️

Our biggest fundraiser of the year is coming up and this year we’d like to find some businesses or individuals to give 1:1 donation matches.

We will put their business name or name into our fundraising page for the amount of the match donation and for the duration time until we hit our match goal donations by individuals will be doubled due to that 1:1 match. Once we reach that donation goal, it will move to the next one.

Please spread the word by asking friends, family and coworkers. The more we raise, the more dogs we can save!

Message us and let us know if you are interested. We can provide donation receipts. All donations are tax deductible as we are a 501c3!

💘THE V PUPS ARE READY FOR FOREVER💘

We’re honestly so surprised that these incredible puppies have not found their forever homes yet! Vito, Viper Rose and Violet were born into the rescue program and are far past ready to get their lives started with their families. They’ve been raised with great fosters and are becoming such wonderful pups.

Where are their forever homes?

They’re 4 months old, will be medium sized dogs and think they’re some type of terrier mix.

Please read their full bios and submit an app to meet them: foothilldogrescue.org
