(Fredericksburg, Va., December 16, 2024)—Bring a rescue dog from Old Dominion Humane Society “Home for the Holidays” to foster temporarily as one of the best gifts they’ll receive. Pick up a rescue on Saturday, December 21 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m., and return them off on Saturday, December 28 at 11 a.m. The “Home for the Holidays” program is extended for the New Year’s celebrations, where rescues can be picked up on Saturday, December 28 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. and returned on Saturday, January 4 at 11 a.m.
The pups would be grateful for a little time away from the rescue facility to get the attention of a family and have a warm place to snuggle. A tradition at ODHS, the “Home for the Holidays” program allows families or individuals to share their time with a rescue dog.
ODHS will supply the food, crate, leash and toys—everything needed to care for a homeless pup for the holidays. To foster a rescue, visit the ODHS website at www.olddominionhumanesociety.org and fill out a foster application to make the process quicker, or visit ODHS and choose a pup on Saturday, December 21 and/or Saturday December 28 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Rescues are returned the next Saturday by 11 a.m.
ODHS is located at 3602 Lafayette Boulevard in Fredericksburg. Adoption events are Wednesdays from 5-7 p.m., Fridays from 6-8 p.m. and Saturdays from 11-3 p.m. Applications in advance are preferred and take priority over walk-ins. For more information about the dogs available for adoption, applications, upcoming events, volunteering, fostering and donating items, visit https://www.olddominionhumanesociety.org.
