Foster Placement Needed
At Paws of the Pines Rescue, we operate as a foster-based organization, relying entirely on the commitment of devoted foster families to bring new animals into our care. This model allows us to provide safe, loving environments for each animal in need while we work to find them forever homes. Currently, we have a diverse array of animals awaiting foster commitments, from playful puppies to gentle senior pups, each eager for a chance to thrive in a nurturing setting. Your willingness to open your home to these animals plays a crucial role in helping us save and rehabilitate lives.

Cat Tolerant so far
Belle is a 3-year-old, 45lb pointer mix with higher energy who loves to run and play in the yard. A fenced yard is strongly preferred so she can safely burn off energy. She does best with large dogs who understand personal space. She can occasionally resource guard, so structure and supervision around high-value items are important. Belle is incredibly friendly and goofy but can become overwhelmed in chaotic or overcrowded environments. A calm, structured home helps her thrive. She is affectionate, playful, and bonds well, she just needs consistency, clear boundaries, and a foster willing to continue reinforcing her training.

Cat Tolerant
Cooper is a 3.5-year-old, 50lb Carolina Dog mix with high energy and a very affectionate personality. He loves being around his people and bonds closely. A securely fenced yard is required — he needs space to safely burn off energy. He is house trained and crate trained, but he does pull on leash and can be leash reactive, so continued structure and consistent handling are important. Cooper may prefer being the only dog, though he is friendly with female dogs. He thrives with routine, exercise, and clear boundaries. He is sweet, loyal, and eager to please — he just needs an active, structured foster home to help him succeed.
We are still testing him with cats to determine if we are comfortable with him going to a cat friendly home.
