Benson is a 3-month-old terrier mix❤️
Found skin and bones at an abandoned rental house, Benson fought through a dangerous coccidia infection and beat the odds.
At only 10 pounds, we believe Benson will stay on the smaller side. He’s a rambunctious little guy who loves to play hard with his bigger brother, but he’s also a total snuggle bug who enjoys couch cuddles.
Benson has been raised with cat
Barker is a 3-month-old terrier mix and an absolute cutie patootie with a story you won’t forget. 💛🐾
He was found with his brother at an abandoned rental house, so hungry he was trying to eat a lemon out of an old to-go cup. Thankfully, those days are behind him—Barker is now a happy, healthy little boy!
He’s been raised with cats and dogs of all sizes and does great with everyone. Barker love

Fostering with From Alone to Home Rescue
Ever wanted to foster a dog? FATHR doesn’t have a physical shelter and is entirely reliant on our foster families – we would cease to exist without them. We are only able to pull as many dogs as we have foster homes for and we are constantly looking to welcome new foster families into our rescue. As a Massachusetts-based organization, we are approved to have foster homes in MA, RI, CT.
Why Foster?
Fosters are the backbone of any foster-based rescue. We do not have a shelter; therefore, we rely on amazing people to foster a dog in need. Fostering is completely free and comes with plenty of dog kisses and wagging tails! Every dog comes to your home fully vetted and spayed or neutered. The rescue pays for ALL expenses. The only thing
Fosters are the backbone of any foster-based rescue. We do not have a shelter; therefore, we rely on amazing people to foster a dog in need. Fostering is completely free and comes with plenty of dog kisses and wagging tails! Every dog comes to your home fully vetted and spayed or neutered. The rescue pays for ALL expenses. The only thing we ask that you provide is love. Most dogs have never had someone to love them and make them feel safe. Foster families are usually the first to find out about the pup's personality. You may even be the first to teach your foster pup basic house manners, making them more appealing to potential adopters. We are the bridge between their forever home. Become a foster and save a life. It is more rewarding than you could ever possibly imagine.

What are the Responsibilities of a Dog Foster Home?
Foster homes are asked to provide foster dogs with plenty of love, adequate food and water, shelter from the elements, and exercise.

Foster homes are asked to provide foster dogs with plenty of love, adequate food and water, shelter from the elements, and exercise. Administering medications or other medical care may also be necessary. In addition to providing the basics, foster parents may also be asked to follow a behavioral or training plan with their foster dog or puppy.
Foster homes play a crucial role in saving and rehabilitating rescued animals. They are in a unique position to help abused or neglected animals learn how to love and trust again.
Foster homes can help these animals become more “adoptable” by providing socialization and basic training. By teaching or re-teaching an animal how to live in a home setting, foster homes help increase the odds for a smooth and successful transition into a permanent adoptive home.
The basic responsibilities are:
• Provide a safe, clean, caring environment.
• Provide food, water, toys/enrichment, and shelter.
• Provide exercise and socialization as appropriate.
• Monitor any medical and/or behavioral problems. We understand you are not a vet but if you see concerning issues please contact us immediately.
• Taking pictures of your foster dog so we can use them to network your pup and help them get adopted.
• Responding to email inquiries on your foster dog from your foster coordinator.

How long can a foster stay?
What are the Responsibilities of a Dog Foster Home?
We prefer our dogs stay in their foster homes until they are adopted. The timing can range anywhere from 1 day to 3 months. We do understand that dogs are just like people and have different personalities. If for any reason you think your foster isn't a good fit for your specific home, please let us know as soon as possible..
