Puppy-Paw-looza was a tail-wagging success! We were thrilled to welcome around 40-50 enthusiastic potential adopters who came to meet our adorable pups. Among the highlights of the day, we gained a fantastic new foster, Howard, and Lauren, the owner of Uptown Pup who hosted the event, officially joined our NTASR Pack! Lauren and her family fell head over heels for Hazelānow lovingly renamed Mochiāa darling little red merle toy Aussie. Weāre endlessly grateful for this incredible community that shares our passion for these silly, lovable wiggle butts. Together, weāre making a real difference!
A big thank you to everyone who shared feedback in our Foster Survey! Thanks to your input, the Admin team has worked hard to create new tools to make your fostering journey with NTASR even smoother. Ā
š Introducing the NTASR Foster Manual!Ā
This comprehensive guide will be uploaded to the NTASR Fosters and Volunteers Facebook page for easy access. We hope it will streamline your experience and provide answers to any questions that come up along the way. Ā
š” Say hello to the Dog Insights & Care Profile! Ā
Weāve designed this handy tool to simplify the information-sharing process with adoptive families. We know the adoption experience can feel like a whirlwind of excitement, and sometimes details about your foster dog might slip through the cracks. This form will serve as a clear and reliable reference for new families, highlighting routines, preferences, and insights into your foster pup. Itās the perfect way to set everyone up for success!Ā
Thank you for helping us make NTASR fostering even betterāyour feedback makes all the difference! š¾

Please Remember:
- Puppies <12 Weeks: No interaction with outside dogs or house guests.Ā
- Going out of town? Please leverage the Foster Facebook Group to see if another Foster is able to keep your foster while you are gone.Ā
- Meet and Greets: Arrange only through us. All interested parties must have an approved application on file.
- Vet Appointments: If you can't make it, please inform us 24 hours before. Follow all pre & post-op instructions (no food after 8 PM the night before or the morning of surgery; medication can be given until 10 PM but not on the morning of surgery).
- Public Outings: Fully vaccinated dogs can visit pet stores & adoption events, but not public dog parks. Ensure they always wear a collar with a rescue tag, harness, and leashes. Children under 12 should not pet foster dogs in public for safety & liability reasons.
