There are so many dogs in need of homes in San Diego that several shelters and rescues are teaming up to encourage people to foster these pets. It's called Project Dog Foster. Six local organizations are joining forces to find foster homes for dogs. They're looking for people to help out, even if it's just for a short period of time. "Dogs are social, they want to be with their families, they want to be a part of something," said Nina Thompson of the San Diego Humane Society. "For a dog to sit in a kennel for 23 hours a day, for more than a year that's devastating." "We're asking the community now in April, before the summer months, where we know it's going to get busier, to make sure these dogs get a break," she said.
