Foster A Shelter Dog For The Holidays

Give them a vacation ... the SPCA of Westchester will provide you everything you need.

BRIARCLIFF MANOR, NY — The SPCA of Westchester;s holiday wish is to find their long-term animals a loving home so they can ring in the New Year with their forever families. Through the “Home for the Holidays” campaign, you can become a foster parent and invite a shelter dog or cat into your home for an extended sleepover to see if he or she is a good match.

The SPCA will provide you with everything you need!

“The holidays are a great time to give back so if you’ve been considering adopting a new pet this is the perfect time,” says Shannon Laukhuf, Executive Director. “We have so many wonderful dogs and cats who have been overlooked through no fault of their own. Some have been with us for years and would love the chance to be in a home and part of a family.”

If you aren’t able to adopt at this time, by fostering you’ll play a vital role in helping the SPCA learn more about each animal so that they can find the best possible match for that dog or cat in the future. Plus, it gives the animals a nice break from shelter life for a few days to enjoy the holidays.

To learn more about this special promotion, please email shelter@spca914.org or visit the SPCA of Westchester anytime between 10-4 Monday through Saturday or 1-4 on Sundays. The SPCA is located at 590 North State Road, Briarcliff Manor, NY 10510.
