Caldwell Rescue Finds Foster Home For Dog In Nick Of Time: UPDATE

CALDWELLS, NJ — A Caldwell-based animal rescue that put out an urgent call to save a dog scheduled to be euthanized had an encouraging holiday update: a foster home has been found.

Rescue Haven Foundation said that a video for Princess, a 7-year-old diabetic dog, has been viewed more than 6,000 times, but nobody has been able to help find her a permanent home – or even a foster situation.

If a home isn’t found for the pooch by Dec. 30, she is scheduled to be euthanized, the nonprofit stated.

Potential fosters must meet some qualifications:

• Willing to separate temporarily
• Near northern NJ
• Committed to give her insulin shots (we will show you how)
• No cats for now
• No small children for now

Interested fosters can fill out an application or learn more about the process here. Questions can be emailed to Donna at donnarescuehaven@gmail.com.

Rescue Haven Foundation later reported that a foster home has been found for Princess.
