Fostering saves lives

Foster with TCDR

Top 5 reasons to foster

Top 5 reasons to foster

 The more foster homes we have, the more dogs we are able to save. By fostering, you give a temporary home to a dog that would have otherwise been euthanized or abandoned and help prepare them for their new life.

  1. By fostering one, you are actually saving two lives--the life of a heeler in need and another dog by opening a spot at the shelter
  2. See if you’re ready for another pet
  3. Receive great support from TCDR and all of its volunteers
  4. Make a bunch of great friends who love Australian Cattle Dogs as much as you do

Transformations, thanks to our fosters

Sad, neglected, older dog hopelessly stuck in a shelter.

    We can't do it without you

    Texas Cattle Dog Rescue is a foster-based organization. We do not operate a shelter and do not have a central location for our dogs. Dogs are fostered in volunteers' homes all across Texas.


    The more foster homes we have, the more dogs we are able to save. By fostering, you give a temporary home to a dog that would have otherwise been euthanized or abandoned and help prepare them for their new life.


    When fostering a TCDR dog, you provide the love, attention, and safe temporary home for a heeler in need. You also have a say in your foster's ultimate home. Foster assignments tend to be short term while a dog recovers from surgery, undergoes heartworm treatment, or waits for a forever home. TCDR pays for veterinary care and heartworm and flea preventative for foster dogs. 


    If you are interested in fostering a heeler, please complete our foster agreement.

    Help us help heelers

    Donations of any amount are gladly accepted and help defray the cost of veterinary care and supplies.
