He’s one of hundreds of dogs along with just as many cats at Homeward Bound, looking for a home.The facility is in desperate need of, not only permanent adoptions, but also badly needed foster homes to free up space in their shelter.MORE HEADLINES:"We really need fosters.
We have a lot of fosters, but even the current amount that we have is just, unfortunately, not enough," Program Manager Shawna Donahue stated.
