Give the gift of family time to a rescue dog this Thanksgiving with Old Dominion Humane Society’s (ODHS) “Home for the Holiday” foster program, November 23-30. These four-legged friends would be grateful for a little time away from the rescue to get the attention of a family and have a warm place to snuggle. A tradition at ODHS, the “Home for the Holiday” program allows families or individuals who are spending the holidays alone to spend time with a rescue dog.
ODHS will supply the food, crate, leash and toys—everything needed to care for a homeless pup for the holiday. 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, November 23 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Bring the new, favorite houseguest home for a few days, and return them on Saturday, November 30.
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.
