Forever Foster Program
What is Road to Home's Forever Foster Program?
​
Road to Home's Forever Foster Program was created in 2013 when a wonderful senior dog ended up in a kill shelter and desperately needed our help. We found the PERFECT family for this dog, but they simply did not have the financial resources to give Tyson the medical care he needed; that is when the Forever Foster Program was born. Sometimes, the perfect family needs a little help--that's what we are doing in our program. These families can give these wonderful dogs all of the love, care, and attention in the world, and that is what matters most. Our Forever Foster Program helps senior and hospice dogs live out their golden years in a home with amazing people who love them immensely.
Why Sponsor A Dog in Our Forever Foster Program?
​
More often than anything else in rescue, perhaps, we hear the phrase "I wish..." I wish I could have another dog, I wish my son wasn't allergic to cats, I wish my apartment allowed pets, I wish I could help. Well, for all of our wishers out there, this is how you can help. By donating to our Forever Foster Program, you are helping an animal who would be otherwise in a cage, on the streets, or worse. You are providing them with the means to live out the rest of their lives in a warm, loving home with a family who loves them. It doesn't have to be a lot-- donating $5 per month would mean the world to any of our Forever Foster dogs. Our Forever Foster Program is an amazing program, but also a costly one. This program allows dogs to live out their lives in a home with amazing people who love them, when they otherwise would not have had that opportunity, due to their age and/or medical condition(s). By contributing to our Forever Foster Program, you are supporting these beautiful dogs and allowing them to live out their golden years with love, dignity, and a family to call their own.
How Can I Sponsor a Forever Foster Dog?
​
The easiest way to support our Forever Foster Program is to make a donation through PayPal. You can make a one time donation by clicking here, or you can make a monthly donation towards one of our dogs (or towards the program in general). To do this, simply click this link and select "recurring donation" at checkout. This monthly donation will go towards vet bills, monthly medications, food, and more. Please consider making a contribution towards our Forever Fosters. No amount is too small--truly. When it comes to rescue, a little bit goes a long way. If every person gave just a little, the animals in our care would have a whole lot. You can also purchase items for our dogs from their Amazon Wishlists. To do so, please email us at inforoadtohome@gmail.com and we will provide you with a list of items that we need for our dogs, along with links to their individual wishlists.

Rufus
We rescued Rufus from the Town of Oyster Bay Animal Shelter when his owner passed, and he lost the only home that he ever knew. This beautiful boy has had many ups and downs with medical issues which incudes 2 surgeries. Through all this, Rufus has had such a beautiful spirit. He is doing Amazing with his foster family, which incudes his doggie brother and very best friend.
Meredith
Nothing will hold this beautiful senior girl down and she is loving life!! This incredible 11 year old girl has been through so much in her life. RTHRS rescued her in the nick of time from ACC with kennel cough only to have emergency surgery a few days later. A few months later, she had a partial mastectomy removing 3 tumors. She came through like the champion that she is. Meredith is part of a wonderful family who absolutely adore her.
Ruckus
Ruckus lived his life with a family of 7, spending most of it outside or in a crate at night in the kitchen. He was then going to be brought to the shelter where he would have been euthanized. RTHRS stepped up and put him with a wonderful foster, where he stayed for quite a while. Sadly they were not able to adopt and Ruckus had to move on. This beautiful boy couldn't catch a break and his anxiety started to build. For the past year he has been living with an amazing man. Someone who lives a quiet life, takes Ruckus to the park and lets Ruckus share the couch and watch a good movie. He has been able to offer Ruckus everything that he needed and deserved. The only thing that he needed help with was medical and some necessities for Ruckus. We would never deny Ruckus the home he had always been looking for, so he became a part of our Forever Foster program.
