Foster for Jester&nbsp;
Jester is a sweet, 2-year-old dog who as been sitting in the shelter since July 30, 2025. He desperately needs surgery for a knee displacement, but the shelter cannot perform the procedure until an approved foster is secured. A loud, stressful shelter kennel is simply not a viable place for a dog to properly heal from orthopedic surgery.
The shelter is ready to proceed with his surgery immediately, and ALL medical expenses, food, and supplies for Jester will be completely covered by the shelter. We just need an approved foster located within driving distance of Wantagh, NY, to give him a quiet place to heal.
About Jester:
• Age: 2 years old
• Temperament: A gentle, sweet boy who just needs a little time to warm up to new people.
• Dog Friendly: Absolutely LOVES
other dogs!
• Shelter Location: Town of
Hempstead Animal Shelter (Wantagh,
Long Island, NY)
If you or someone in your network can open your home to Jester for his post-surgery recovery, please reach out to the shelter immediately.

With locations in Garden City and Syosset we train over 2,000 children each week at every swim level from Beginner to Olympian. Long Island Swim School offers swim lessons for children ages 2 - 14years old. The main emphasis of our programs is to teach children to swim correctly and develop essential water skills in a relaxed environment. Our goal driven and technique oriented approach is the key to your child's success. Through skill based quality teaching our students develop a joy for learning and a passion for swimming. At Long Island Swim School, we teach children to swim the same way the best in the world do. By using age-appropriate, proven techniques children build real skills in kick, pull, body position, and breath control. Our logical, consistent progression turns every fundamental—whether blowing bubbles or learning butterfly timing—into a building block for efficient, confident swimming. Our professional staff are swimmers and coaches with the knowledge to give your child the skills to achieve more than just water safety. We provide the best foundation possible for success. Not every child will dream of Olympic glory, but every child should have the foundation to take them there.
