The LAWS “Foster to Forever Program” (FTF) applies to puppies in our program who are not old enough or do not weigh enough to be spayed/neutered (not able to be adopted out yet through our traditional adoption process). The program is available to Albany County residents only since the shelter needs to maintain jurisdiction over these animals until they are ready to be spayed/neutered (at 15 weeks of age –or if there is a medical concern until our vets recommendation).

The Fee to join this program is $275 - paid at the time your receive your foster - this covers the adoption fee of the puppy.
