However, we support individuals&nbsp;(rescatistas)&nbsp;who rescue and foster dogs until we find a permanent home. If you rescue a dog, you are responsible for its care, but we\u2019re here to help you with resources and guidance.<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Key Steps for Rescuers:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Safety First:<\/strong>&nbsp;Ensure you, your family, and other pets are safe when rescuing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Be Prepared:<\/strong>&nbsp;Have food, water, and a leash ready. Ask around if the dog has an owner.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Veterinary Care:<\/strong>&nbsp;Take the dog to a vet immediately. We can assist with food, vaccines, deworming, and sterilization once the dog is in our system.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Commitment Required:<\/strong>&nbsp;Do not rescue a dog unless you have a plan for its care and a safe place to take it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:31px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Before You Rescue<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Read our<a href=\"https:\/\/hope4lapawz.org\/wp1\/10-best-practices-for-rescuing\/\">&nbsp;Ten Best Practices for Rescuing&nbsp;<\/a>to understand the responsibilities involved.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make sure you can comply with our guidelines before filling out an intake form.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:14px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Important Reminder:<\/strong>&nbsp;If you\u2019re not ready to take full responsibility for the dog, it\u2019s best to help it in its current environment until a better solution is found. Removing a dog without a clear plan can sometimes do more harm than good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ready to Rescue?<\/strong>\u00a0If you\u2019re committed to fostering a dog and helping it become adoptable, the rewards are immense.
