Become a Foster Guardian and transform the life of a shelter or rescue dog!

This volunteer role involves 6 weeks of housing and caring for a shelter or rescue service dog candidate during TLCAD's rescue assessment process. Volunteers will work with our training department to observe, socialize and prepare a service dog candidate to enter our prison service dog training program. After the 6-week assessment period, TLCAD either adopts the dog to become a service dog-in-training, or works with rescues and shelters to find a loving forever home for the dog.

  • The shelter dogs we are assessing need to be fostered in a cat-free home with dog-friendly dogs only.
