Adopting a MAS Dog
Choosing to adopt a rescue is more than just finding a new companion; it is a profound act of compassion that has a direct, life-saving impact.
When you adopt a dog from MAS, you aren't just saving one life—you are saving two. MAS always operates at maximum capacity. By choosing to adopt, you immediately provide a loving home for a dog in need, while simultaneously freeing up crucial space and resources for another vulnerable animal to take their place. Your single act of kindness creates a ripple effect throughout the rescue community.
Are you ready, willing, and able to provide a safe, loving, and forever home for a dog from the pound?

Not ready to adopt?
Try fostering.
Fostering
If you’re not ready for full dog adoption yet, consider becoming a foster parent. When you foster a dog, you give a rescue animal a temporary, loving home, helping them heal physically and emotionally until they find a forever family. Dogs thrive much better in homes than in crowded kennels, and your care truly saves lives.
Responsibilities of a Dog Foster Parent
To ensure our rescue dogs get the best care, fosters must be able to:
-
Daily Care: Feed the dog twice a day and provide daily exercise, playtime, and affection.
-
Medical Needs: Administer oral medications/supplies and bring the dog for a final check-up at our partner vet in Quezon City.
-
Updates: Keep the dog safe, loved, and complete online foster updates.
