Our ability to rescue dogs depends entirely on whether we can find committed, qualified foster homes. These dogs are in desperate need of placement. If we don’t have foster homes for them, we have to pause intake. YOU can make the difference… not only for your foster pup but for the next one whose life you made space for us to save. If you can help, please read our foster FAQs, submit a foster application, and email foster@socialteesnyc.org. We are so grateful you’re willing to welcome in a soul whose journey will be shaped by your compassion, generosity, and creativity. :)
NOTE: All dogs on this page are up for adoption and eligible for our foster-to-adopt program.

Dogs We’re Trying to Save!
They’re not yet in our care, and they’re at risk. In order to take them in, we need dedicated humans to give them a place to stay (and patient care, exercise, guidance, the works).
