Foster to Adopt

Be a part of the HAWS community for pets and their people. Join our pack!

Bringing a new pet into your home is a big step – there can be questions and unknowns that only time will answer. HAWS’ Foster to Adopt program gives you and your new pet time to adjust to life together, while we provide support and guidance throughout the transition.

Welcome one of the eligible HAWS adoptables pictured below into your home…with a “safety net”! Take the pet you’d like to adopt into your home for two weeks before you make it permanent. We know you’ll be inseparable right away, but, just like with any adoption, during that time period you’ll have access to all of HAWS behavior resources in case you have questions about helping your new pet adjust.

Questions? Our Foster Care Coordinators are happy to give you more information about the Foster to Adopt program – simply contact them at [email protected].
