Tina is a small black adult Chihuahua/Dachshund mix who is currently nursing her puppies and will be available for adoption after raising her family. She urgently needs a quiet, comfortable maternity foster home where she can focus on her puppies away from the stress of the shelter.

Ideal Home

• A spare bedroom, office, bathroom, closet, or other quiet space separate from resident pets.
• A calm environment away from household activity.

Ongoing Health

• Tina is vaccinated.

Training & Support

• The provider supplies everything needed and explains what to expect.
• Foster care is generally needed until the puppies are weaned and eating gruel, usually around 3–4 weeks of age.
• The puppies can then move to new foster homes, or the foster may continue supporting the family through adoption.

Application Details

• Start by contacting the provider through Wags to sign up as a maternity foster.
• Maternity fosters receive first priority to adopt Tina or a puppy of their choice.
