Adoption Story: Maple

“This was our first experience fostering, not only with NBMDRN but fostering in general. We were anxious since we'd never had a dog as young as a Maple in our care before, but Tammy was there for us every step of the way. We never felt alone in our foster journey, and we never felt like our questions or concerns were too silly to be asked or answered. We also took advantage of the support of other fosters and adopters in the NBMDRN family, reaching out in the Facebook groups to crowdsource suggestions and ideas when we needed them.

It was pretty easy to fall in love with Maple, and no one at NBMDRN was distressed one bit when we announced we wanted to foster-fail. They continued to support us through vaccinations and spay, helping us get Maple to a healthy place where we could then sign adoption papers for her. Even then and now, they continue to support us and consider us part of the NBMDRN family...which we are proud to be.

NBMDRN rescues and takes care of these beautiful dogs, no matter their physical or mental states when they arrive. They find fosters to heal their bodies and their spirits...and their souls. And then they find adoptive homes to give them the lives they deserve, filled with love and joy and health. They find them families where they can finally be home. Like Maple is here with us.”
