Fostering makes a huge difference in the lives of our animals, especially those who have spent a long time at the shelter. To give some of our dogs an extra boost, we've started the Unicorn Foster Program, finding our unique pups the perfect place to learn more skills and prepare for an adoptive home.

What is the Unicorn Foster Program?

The Unicorn Foster Program aims to find foster placements for our long-term dogs, dogs who are currently in our Shelter Success Program, and dogs who have specific needs in a future home. 

How does it work?

Fosters in the program will work directly with our Trainer & Behavior Consultant, MarLee Thompson, and will have regular private lessons with her. After you apply, you'll meet with MarLee at PAWS Atlanta, and she will match you with the dog that best fits your home and family.

How do I get involved?

Fill out our foster application, and check "yes" on the final question when asked about an exciting new program with our dog trainer. When our Foster Coordinator reaches out to schedule your home inspection, she will discuss the program in more detail with you.
