Foster


Interested in Fostering?

Animals in our adoption program are fostered while they await adoption, either by the owner who is giving the animal up or, if necessary, by a GHS Foster Home. The Gwinnett Humane Society is a group of individuals and families like yourself that have made room in their lives for homeless and unwanted animals. Foster homes are few and far between and the more GHS has, the more animals the organization can help.

Many people ask us how we can take animals into our homes, care for them, love them, and then give them up. The answer is simple…they need our help! Yes…we do find ourselves becoming emotionally attached…but we know that we are simply there to help. And there is nothing more rewarding than placing a beloved foster pet into a new and loving home.

By taking these animals into our homes, we are providing them an opportunity to find a permanent, loving home. Fostering can be one of the most rewarding parts of being a GHS volunteer. By becoming a Foster Home with the Gwinnett Humane Society, you can alter the course of an animal’s life.

As always, we are still being bombarded with litters of puppies and kittens, as well as adult dogs and cats looking for homes.  If you’ve ever considered fostering, now is the time we need you most.

Please consider fostering as a way to show your support and concern for the animals of Gwinnett county. You may be their only hope.
