Foster

The process is similar to the adoption process: vet check, reference check, home visit, and a meet and greet with the dog! We provide any necessary medical treatments, monthly heartworm, food, and any medication that is needed. Foster parents have to bring their foster dog to adoption events 2 to 4 times a month (typically on a Sunday).

About us

Our rescue was formed in 2010 for the purpose of preventing abuse to animals. MADR was primarily a foster based rescue until 2015, when we opened a shelter in Detroit to accept more intakes and expand our reach. We provide the behavioral training, medical assistance, and support to rehabilitate these dogs, no matter the cost, until they’re ready for a new forever home.
