My Nonprofit Reviews

I have been fostering for Brother Wolf Animal Rescue for about three years now. During that time 68 animals have passed through my home. Some were adopted, some transported up north to new families, some were fospice animals and died in my care, but there last months were in a loving home instead of in a shelter. I have fostered short term, during an emergency such as flooding, and long term, upwards to a year and over. I have had seniors and newborns, bonded cats and mama dogs. Throughout BWAR has supported me, helped me, reassured me when I panic, and completely held me up so I could give these animals the best care possible. They provide medical care, and when a situation is beyond them, like little Sandy, a Chihuahua with two broken hips and two dislocated knees, they sent me to the very best for his surgeries. I absolutely cannot say enough good things about them and the work they do.

I foster with BWAR, as well as volunteering for assorted events. Few things in my life have been as rewarding as the fostering experience. BWAR is completely supportive. They have, on different occasions, given me food, litter, puppy pads, crates, gates, puppy pens and tons of emotional support as well as educational information. I can call at any time and always receive help. When they changed their policy on fospice dogs, to allow them to be adopted if someone was willing to take on the work, they grandfathered my old fospice dog in so he wouldn't have any more shake-ups in what was left of his life. They get excited with me over my little triumphs, mourn with me over the inevitable loss (with no hint of recrimination) and support me when I feel overwhelmed. The number of dogs and cats and rats and who knows what all that pass through their doors, to be retrained, loved, socialized, treated and ultimately adopted into loving homes is beyond belief. They can bend the rules when rigidity would be inhumane, and they hold to them otherwise so we all know what the procedures, policies and boundaries are. I love BWAR!
