Snoopy's Story

Type of Foster Home: 

Snoopy is a 4-month-old, 15-pound dog looking for a loving foster home! He is a high-energy pup that needs a break from the shelter. He would thrive in a foster home that can provide structure, basic training, and lots of activity. He currently has Ringworm and is undergoing multiple treatments. He takes an antibiotic twice daily, an anti-fungal once daily, and a lime sulfur dip every 4 days. He would do best in a home children aged 8 and up. He should be the only pet in the home, as Ringworm is contagious to other animals and humans. He can be left home alone for 2 to 3 hours at a time.

How to Foster Snoopy:

New fosters can take the first step by learning about fostering and completing the Foster Care Application. Veteran foster parents can email acfoster@pawschicago.org to schedule a pickup appointment.

Snoopy is available for foster pick-up through the Medical Center at 3516 W. 26th St.

Why Foster?

There are many animals that need us today. Each foster family allow us to save more homeless pets by opening their home to a pet or litter in need of love and care for a few weeks. When we are able to send a pet or litter to foster, it frees up space in our Medical Center to bring in more pets in need.

Last year, our foster families took in 1,921 pets. Some needed a peaceful place to recover from illness or injury. Puppies and kittens just needed a bit of time in a home environment with good socialization so they could grow big enough to have their spay/neuter surgery before adoption. Other pets needed a calm and relaxing break from the stress of shelter life.

Consider joining them in lifesaving. Sign up to become a foster today.
