Foster A Dog

Fostering allows rescue dogs to live outside of the campus and experience being part of a family as they await adoption.

Change A Life

At Big Dog Ranch Rescue, we’re proud to comfortably house over 600 animals as they wait to find their Forever Home. Nevertheless, in order to give more animals a place to stay on our campus, we need the help of foster parents.

As a foster parent, your goal is to find the rescue a Forever Home. This involves taking our rescue to adoption events, providing regular check-ins to the ranch, and giving your foster dog a safe home.

A dog’s time in a foster home can range from a few days to several months. Every rescue is different, so every foster experience will be different. We are able to give a better estimate for your specific foster dog before you take them home.

Doggy Day Out

Foster a dog for an hour or the entire day! Doggy Day Out is a short-term foster program where the public can take dogs from BDRR on special day outings.

A Doggy Day Out can include a hike, a trip to Starbucks for a Puppachino, or a drive to a petstore for some goodies. These field trips help rescue dogs socialize, burn off energy and get more exposure to potential adopters.

Doggy Day Out requires minimal training commitments for participants.
