"Urgent Call for Foster Homes as Las Vegas Shelter Faces Critical Space Crisis"

The Animal Foundation in Las Vegas is facing a critical space crisis after taking in 917 animals over the last two weeks, leaving them with over 744 animals in their care and no space for more dogs on their campus. They urgently need 50 dogs over 6 months old to go to temporary foster homes to alleviate the situation, and are making it easier for people to foster by allowing direct pick-up from the shelter's adoption building with no appointment needed. The shelter provides all necessary supplies and will waive adoption fees if fosters decide to make the arrangement permanent.
