All the wonderful volunteers of Training Rescue Dogs help to save beautiful dogs from dying alone and frightened in animal shelters and to place these dogs into loving homes. By joining the Training Rescue Dogs volunteer team, you can make a difference in a Dog's life. We cherish our wonderful volunteers because they enable us to save the lives of our dogs. You can help us by:

Open Your Home to a Dog by Becoming a Foster

How rewarding is this? Seeing that face of “Thanks” from a dog that was pulled from the shelter not knowing why they were there or if their number is up, then seeing how much they blossom into that wonderful loving companion. A foster home is a safe, positive, warm, loving home that will show the basic commands, help work out any issues, letting them know that there will always be food and water for them. The rescue will provide all veterinary care, donated food when available. You are the voice helping them find their next forever home by participating in meet and greets. Fostering is one of the most rewarding parts of volunteering, if you are interested in fostering, please fill out the application or contact us at info@trainingrescues.org.

  2. Emergency Foster home temporary for up to 2 weeks until foster home can be found
