Their second chance begins in your hands


Dogs for Foster or Foster-to-Adopt

Thinking about adopting a dog, but not sure if you’re ready to commit? 

Our foster-to-adopt program lets you care for a rescue dog first and see how you bond before making adoption official. At Mornington Peninsula Dog Rescue Incorporated (MDPRI), we believe this is the best way to ensure the right forever match. 

Join our community and give a dog in need their second chance. If you have any queries or would like further information on Fostering and Foster-to-Adopt, please reach out via our Contact page. We’d love to connect with you.

If we have foster or foster-to-adopt dogs available, you can find them listed below. 

Be sure to stay in touch via our socials for up-to-date announcements, fostering and adoption availability.

    GENDER: FEMALE
    AGE: 14 MONTHS
    BREED: STAFFY X KELPIE X GREYHOUND

    *URGENT FOSTER-TO-ADOPT NEEDED

    Sweet, playful and full of heart. Our beautiful girl, Twister, is sadly coming back into care through no fault of her own. Her family adore her, but her high energy and puppy-like needs are more than they can meet right now. We’re urgently searching for a loving foster home to help her transition safely while she waits for her forever family. Twister is a sunshine-souled sweetheart — affectionate, goofy, people-obsessed and still very much a big puppy. She loves cuddles, learns quickly, and lights up every room she walks into. She seeks an active foster home with older or adult children. She is dog-friendly, smart and eager to please. She just needs a safe place to land and a gentle hand to guide her while her little world shifts again.
