My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

The Salad Litter of 3 girls were born around September 16th, 2022. Arugula is a smart, playful girl that gets along well with other dogs, but not cats. We know their mother is a Labrador, but no idea on Dad - he was a traveling salesman. If interested, please submit an application on our website: SHELTERFRIENDS.ORG

**WE ARE NOT A SHELTER** Our foster-based rescue is run by volunteers. Processing of applications can take up to 5 days and then we'll email you. Please add SHELTERFRIENDSOK@GMAIL.COM to your contacts so our messages don't go to spam. Thanks!

More about this rescue

We are a nonprofit organization dedicated to finding homes for pets in rural Oklahoma animal shelters through adoption events and fundraisers. We're focused on the Newcastle animal shelter since that's where we're based, but we also pull from other rural shelters when we can. We are a foster-based program, meaning that all of our dogs live in private foster homes NOT a facility. This gives them better socialization skills, which makes them a more well-adjusted pet. Also, the foster parent is able to learn about the pet’s personality, likes, and dislikes so that he can be better matched to the right forever home. We always need great foster families, so if you're interested in learning more on becoming one please visit our website to apply: www.shelterfriends.org
