The San Diego Humane Society Monday unveiled an incentive program for people to foster large dogs, due to the organization's record number of sheltered adult dogs.
The new incentive is intended to get 50 dogs into foster homes and comes after the organization set a record on March 24, with 620 dogs in care, breaking its previous record of 606 dogs on Dec. 20, 2022."We are piloting this new approach because we want dogs in our care to have an easier transition in foster care while they wait for their future family," said Dr. Gary Weitzman, president and CEO of San Diego Humane Society.
Large dogs are more difficult to place in foster homes, which is why the incentive focuses on this specific population, according to SDHS. Any length of stay at a shelter can be stressful for pets — especially dogs.
