We’re Starting — Imperfectly and Intentionally
The world feels heavy right now.
Foster families are doing hard, generous work every day.
We’ve been building Furry Foster Foundation quietly, waiting for everything to be perfectly finished. We realized that waiting didn’t make sense anymore.
So we’re starting with what we already have.
Right now, Furry Foster Foundation is offering Free Self-Serve Baths for dogs currently in foster homes, through approved partner foster organizations. If you are fostering a dog, make sure your foster group gets signed up with us so you can enjoy the benefits!
This is the first step in a longer journey. As the foundation grows, community support will allow us to cover more care for foster dogs, always thoughtfully and always in partnership with foster organizations.
If you’re part of a foster or rescue group, we’d love to build this with you.

If you can’t adopt, fostering is the next best thing!
Fostering is the heart of Austin’s No-Kill mission. Every time someone opens their home, they give a dog the chance to heal, learn, and show who they really are outside of the shelter. Foster families make room for more dogs to be saved, and there’s a fit for everyone—whether it’s a quick overnight or emergency stay, a week or two of recovery care, or longer-term fostering until adoption. However you’re able to help, every foster home matters, and together they make Austin’s No-Kill promise possible.
