**Update** Agave has some exciting news! If you are one of her Foster From Afar donors, please be on the look out for an email very soon.

Agave

your support as a ‘foster from afar’ will help change this sato’s life forever.

If Agave wasn’t such a good mom, we may never have been able to rescue her. She was so scared of people, she would have been nearly impossible to catch. But we knew she really loved her newborn pups, so we put them in a crate and waited for her to come to them. That is exactly what happened. Her love for her pups, saved her own life too. After we brought the entire family into our care, Agave continued to be a doting and wonderful mother. Her puppies all grew up happy and healthy. They all took their Freedom Flights and found their forever families on the mainland in early 2020. Agave would have gone with them, but she had to stay behind for some extra TLC. Like many satos who have suffered at the hands of cruel humans, she needed to learn to trust us. After another year with our trainer as part of her ‘pack’ of dogs still working on socialization, we decided that Agave deserved her next big step.

Agave took her Freedom Flight on April 10th, 2021 along with several other dogs in need of specialized care. She then went to a very special foster home in Pennsylvania. One of our longtime dedicated volunteers agreed to take her in and give her a chance at living in a home with a family.

Thanks to her amazing foster parents and their other satos, she is making progress every day; however, she still has awhile to go before she will eligible for adoption. We are determined to give Agave all the time she needs for her to realize that she deserves to be loved too, just as much as she loved her babies.

But until then, Agave would love some virtual foster family support along her journey toward rehabilitation. In exchange for any gift of $24 or more, you’ll receive a special digital postcard (see the last photo in the gallery above). You can print it for yourself to show off your foster dog or give it to a loved one as a gift to let them know that a grateful sato was fostered in their honor.  We’ll also keep you in the loop of Agave’s progress.  Just like her in-person foster, you’ll be one of the first to know when she finally meets her forever family.
