Why do we do this?
Little Angels Rescue is committed to decreasing the number of pet
deaths each year. We are an all volunteer organization which is
composed of dedicated individuals making a difference by saving
pet lives.
How can we save more lives?
We can save more pet lives by increasing the number of people willing
to get involved. We need dedicate individuals who can open their
hearts and their homes to rescued Little Angels, either on a temporary
or permanent basis. Foster homes are especially needed in DeSoto,
Charlotte, Lee and Sarasota counties.
If you are interested in fostering a Little Angel rescue, please

Isn't it hard to let them go?

the right home for our dogs. Knowing the person or family that
adopts your foster dog is RIGHT, makes it easier to let them go
Do I get to decide who can adopt my foster dog?
- Your input is very important to the decision making process.
However, the board of directors at Little Angels Rescue is responsible
for reviewing all applications, completed home visit reports and
then making the final decision on which applicant is approved
to adopt.
- Communicating with the board and the volunteer assigned to screen
applicants for your foster is very important. We depend on our
fosters to let us know the needs of the dog. This information
will help us to find the right home for your foster.
