🐶 Prospective fosters: Fosters through the shelter and rescues are needed for dogs. Please apply with rescue partners, or contact the shelter by Friday if already approved, to be a foster and save a life. The Friends of PG County Animal Shelter posts about dogs which need fosters through the shelter or otherwise through rescues. Fostering is usually free with a rescue.
Please review the shelter foster information, apply online and complete Pet Parenting Certification. Contact the shelter with the dog's name and ID. "Interested in Fostering: Email fosterpgcpets@co.pg.md.us " They allow pit bull-type dogs to be fostered in Maryland. Foster Information | Prince George's County
