New Leash on Life USA is seeking foster homes in the Delaware Valley area. New Leash provides all medical care, supplies, food, and vet transportation while a dog is in foster care. We have four different types of foster opportunities:

Temporary/Emergency Foster Home Volunteers

Temporary/emergency foster homes are needed to place dogs who need short term housing, typically 1 - 7 days.

Long Term Foster Home Volunteers

Foster homes are needed to place dogs in a stress free and safe environment to keep the dog healthy and adoptable, typically 1 week - 2 months.

YARD Foster

Fostering for the YARD (Young Adult Reentry and Diversion) program requires a minimum of an eight-week foster commitment. You and your foster dog will attend Dog Training classes with our Certified Dog Trainer once a week for 8 weeks at our Philadelphia office.

Foster-to-Adopt
If you are considering adopting but not sure, fostering is a great way to test-drive dog ownership without the commitment. With that being said, here at New Leash we love foster fails! If you and your foster dog are a great match, then we will be happy to finalize an adoption for you and your dog.

Is Fostering Right For You?
You may be a great fit for fostering if you:
  • Have a reliable mode of transportation (preferred but not required)
  • Have a safe home that allows pets
  • Have a lot of love to give!

Mission Statement

New Leash on Life USA’s mission is to reduce recidivism and save the lives of at-risk dogs. We accomplish this with an innovative reform model that leverages the powerful bond between dogs and humans. New Leash’s model begins during incarceration with a dog training program that teaches practical life and social-emotional skills, and extends to high-quality case management upon release. Through this comprehensive approach, we prepare men and women for a successful transition as they re-enter society.
