It's called Save A Dog. In this free app, you virtually foster a dog until they are adopted. You can foster up to two dogs. It gives you an idea of the time frame it takes to adopt out a dog. I like to choose the least adoptable I can find, so I can foster the dog as long as possible. In truth, many dogs are never adopted out and it's just a tiny way to remember that.
There are tasks where you also can walk a dog or arrange a playdate. When you've accumulated 2,500 points, the monetary amount of a cup of food will be donated to the program. In turn, it benefits all of the shelters participating.
Best of all, it's a way for you to help dogs by just taking a couple of minutes out of your day while you're on Facebook. It's one of the least time-consuming applications out there.

Save-a-Dog and Save-a-Cat are great! You really do get attached to your little fosters and there is great satisfaction when they get adopted. Aside from that, I've met some charming Facebook human friends too.
ReplyDeleteYou know Simon, I was thinking to myself that there probably was a Save A Cat application too. It's great that there is this option for cat and dog lovers. Thanks so much for your comments. :)

ReplyDeleteTodd, you are so right about getting attached to your foster pet. There's just something about those pictures that make the dogs come alive. It's so great to hear that there are other fans of this app out there. Thanks for writing and enjoy the evening. :)
