Foster & Adoption
Help us save lives by opening your heart and home to a dog in need.
Become a Foster
Fostering saves lives. Harry’s Island Paw Rescue relies on compassionate foster homes to care for rescued dogs while they receive medical care, rehabilitation, and prepare for adoption.
By fostering, you provide a safe and loving environment and help us rescue more dogs from the streets of Puerto Rico.
Adopt a Dog
Adoption gives our dogs a second chance at a forever home. Each dog is carefully matched with adopters based on lifestyle, space, and commitment to ensure a successful and loving placement.
Dogs may be adopted locally in Puerto Rico or transported to the mainland U.S. once vetted and ready.
We are in urgent need of foster homes. Without fosters, some dogs may not be able to enter rescue and may require TNR (Trap Neuter Return). Your support truly makes a difference.
Getting Ready to Welcome a Rescue Dog
Adopting a rescue dog is a life-changing decision — not just for you, but for the dog whose life you’re saving. At Harry’s Island Paw Rescue, we work closely with adopters and fosters to ensure every dog is placed in a safe, loving, and prepared home where they can truly thrive.

Every dog has unique needs. We help you understand basic care, training, and adjustment tips so your new companion can settle in comfortably..mattis.
- Financial Responsibility
Providing food, veterinary care, and a safe environment is essential. We encourage adopters to be ready for the long-term commitment of caring for a rescue dog.
- Essential Pet Supplies
