Foster families are at the heart of TLC and, the more foster families we have, the more dogs we can save. To Love a Canine Rescue (TLC) is looking for more foster families, especially those willing to foster medium-large sized adolescent, adult & senior dogs that aren't always adopted as quickly as young puppies.
We pay for all the food, supplies and the veterinary care your foster dog will need, as well as provide you with the training assistance & support to help you. The more foster families we have, the more lives we can save.
If you've ever thought about fostering, now is a great time to get involved. Learn more about fostering for TLC at: http://TLCrescuePA.com/foster/

Mission Statement
Our mission is to rescue, offer sanctuary, and find permanent homes for abandoned, stray and surrendered dogs in order to minimize the needless euthanizing of animals. Our vision is to make the right connections between our rescued dogs and families in order to give our dogs their final, happy, loving homes. TLC strives to be a valuable resource to our community by working with struggling dog owners and by providing education on responsible dog ownership including the importance of spaying/neutering, behavior training, and microchip implanting.
