🐶 Prospective fosters: Fosters through the shelter and rescues are needed for these dogs. Please apply with rescue partners, or with the shelter if living in Maryland, to become a foster and save a life. Fostering is usually free with a rescue. See the Friends' posts seeking fosters and rescues for dogs.

📢 "We are sharing the Length of Stay - Urgent list today.
We want to be transparent that our shelter is currently at full capacity, and we are reaching out for help from the community to find placement for these dogs by the close of business on Tuesday, June 9th. We are looking for adopters, fosters, or assistance from our rescue partners.
Unfortunately, if these dogs do not leave by June 9th, they are at risk of euthanasia. Your support can make a difference."
