To Love a Canine Rescue, Inc.
To Love a Canine Rescue (TLC) is a nonprofit, all-breed, foster-based, no-kill dog rescue founded in 2013 and operating in Chester County, PA, with adoption events in Phoenixville, West Chester, King of Prussia, and Downingtown. The 100% foster-based model is powered by a community of more than 150 fosters and active volunteers who have placed over 1,600 dogs in permanent homes.
Ways to help here
Dog Foster
Provide a safe, comfortable temporary home for a rescued dog until adoption. TLC covers all costs: food, crate, leash, toys, bedding, preventatives, and all essential vet care are supplied at no cost to the foster; households with existing pets are welcome.
⏱ Ongoing; duration varies per dog until adoption
Rescue Volunteer (Transport, Events, Photography)
Support rescue operations as a transport-day dog handler greeting new arrivals, a meet-and-greet handler or event lead, an event/profile photographer, an application processor calling vets and references, or an adoption counselor. A Mini Paws junior volunteer program lets kids and teens participate with adult supervision.
⏱ Flexible; transport days, weekend meet-and-greet events, and remote tasks
