Can't Adopt?
Become a Foster Instead
Love animals, but can't commit to caring for one long-term through adoption? Why not foster?

The Humane Society of Greater Dayton is always looking for fosters who would be willing to open their hearts and homes to homeless animals in need.

As a foster, you help us house animals who are too young, healing from sickness or too large to fit at our current facility. From litters of kittens, puppies and bunnies to livestock, our need for fosters is constant.

The time commitment is short, but the impact you can have on making homeless animals feel the love and warmth while they wait for their forever home is priceless.

If you are interested in becoming a foster or want to get more information, please contact our Foster Coordinator Mandy Johnson at mjohnson@hsdayton.org or call (937) 262-5937.
Adoption Success!
This week we are thrilled to announce that we found forever homes for  19    animals! Since we have also kicked off a new year, our tally of animals who have found forever homes has restarted. So far in 2017,
1,078

animals have found forever homes thanks to each of you!
