As Two by Two Rescue does not have a facility, we rely solely on foster homes
to save the lives of homeless canine companions. Most are kept in private foster homes in Helena,
Pelham, Hoover, Alabaster, and surrounding Birmingham areas.
A foster home gives refuge and the same care that a responsible and
loving owner would provide. We try to make a good match based on the dog's personality,
and the foster family's lifestyle. A dog may stay in foster care for several days
to several months, depending on the unique situation of each.
Foster parents play a large role in helping to determine what type of permanent home
would be best for the dog. Two by Two Rescue pays for all pre-approved vet expenses.
Hope Animal Clinic in Bessemer is our primary veterinarian.
We can usually provide food, treats, and accessories, but welcomes the foster home
to donate needed supplies if possible.
Foster homes are not expected to handle the administrative details of the adoption process.
Fosters are welcome to come to
PetSmart in Hoover,
for families to ''meet and greet''.
(Saturdays, Noon-4:00PM except for major holidays).

*Provide a loving safe environment, adequate fresh water & food, excerise & clean dry

Here is what some of our foster homes have to say:
I become attached to all my foster puppies and it is hard to let them go, but I know that I have helped them go from living on the streets to living a great life in a loving home. They have all touched my heart in their own special way. -Kellie
So much fun and good times have been brought into my life because of my foster ''babies''. I would say my life has gone to the dogs! -Jana
My fosters are a special gift to me. The excitement of finding each one a loving home,that surge of joy in my heart, is one of the best feelings I have ever known. -Brenda
The joy of nurturing a homeless pet, knowing you played a vital role in saving their life, and seeing them adopted to a forever home is truly rewarding. If you would like to foster please click here
