Become a Foster Parent for Rescued Dogs in Bangalore
We operate without a physical shelter, so our foster network is the only lifeline our rescues have to get out of hospital cages and into a home.

This is what we mean when we say fostering saves lives. Luna, a husky rescued from a breeder, is seen thriving in her foster home, learning to be a dog again.
A foster appeal for Mishri, a 4-6 year old lab who needed a quiet home to recover after her chemo and before her surgery. We cover all expenses for our foster families.

About The Power of Fostering: Be a Temporary Home
Fostering is the bridge between a dog's recovery and their forever home. We handle all medical expenses, diagnostic tests, and dietary requirements, including providing grain-free, meat-based food. Your role is simply to provide a safe, calm environment where a dog can decompress from the trauma of abandonment or hospitalization while they wait for adoption.
When we rescue a dog from abandonment, illegal breeding, or a critical medical situation, the transition from a clinical environment to a home is the most important part of their recovery. Because we do not have a physical shelter, our foster parents act as the vital bridge.
Why we need foster parents in Bangalore
Dogs like Mishri, who spent weeks in a hospital undergoing chemotherapy, need a quiet, comfortable place to regain their strength before surgery. Others, like Luna, need a stable environment to manage conditions like epilepsy. Being in a home rather than a hospital cage significantly reduces their stress, helps them trust humans again, and allows us to understand their true personality, which makes adoption much easier later.
What is expected of you
- A Safe Space: We have a strict 'no-cage, no-kennel' policy. Your home should be a place where they can move freely and feel secure.
- Specific Care: Many of our rescues, especially those recovering from surgeries or illnesses, require a species-appropriate, meat-based diet. We will guide you on this, and we cover all expenses including medical visits, supplements, and food.
- Patience: These dogs are often coming out of trauma. They might have accidents, anxiety, or specific medical routines, but the reward of seeing a scared, abandoned dog learn to play or sleep peacefully on a bed is unmatched.
If you can open your heart and home for a few weeks or months, you are the reason a dog gets a second chance at life. We provide the medical support; you provide the love they desperately need.
