Always looking for foster care. Would you be willing to foster a dog until we can find a permanent foster home or a forever home? This could be a day, a week or longer. We try to match the personality of the dog with the foster household. FOAC will provide food and pay all vet costs. You provide a little space, some love and socialization. Boarding is sometimes the only option and the cost of boarding would be better used for medical purposes. Give us a call if you are interested in providing a foster home. Donations are always needed and welcome at any time! A donation of any amount can help save a life. Donations can be sent to FOAC, PO Box 4627, Sonora, CA 95370. We have a special medical fund called "Charley's Fund" which covers medical costs above & beyond spay/neuter & shots. Opportunities for you to help include: foster homes, transportation, help at adoption days and administrative help.
Who We Are
Friends of Animal Control is a group of volunteers dedicated to improving the welfare of our shelter animals. Our mission is to find suitable loving homes for the many wonderful animals in our shelters. We are also friends of the animal community helping people find suitable homes for pets they can no longer keep. This could be due to illness, a move or other circumstances. Through our "Courtesy Listing" on our Petfinder Page, we can list a picture and information about your pet online, helping you to find a new home for your pet, puppies or kittens. FOAC is a non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation, all volunteer with no paid staff. The only funding received is from private donations and fund raising events.
