Kourtney O’Hair is a beacon of hope for homeless dogs in Albuquerque, New Mexico. When the city’s animal shelter overflows, they know exactly who to call – this dedicated foster mom has taken in a staggering 48 dogs in just nine months!
As per to the source koat Her fostering journey began with a tiny, four-day-old puppy that needed bottle-feeding. The adorable ball of fur stole her heart, and there was no turning back.
Since then, O’Hair has fostered numerous litters and individual dogs, providing them with a loving temporary home until they’re ready for adoption.
It’s not always easy. Bottle-feeding puppies requires round-the-clock care, and some dogs arrive with physical or emotional scars from neglectful pasts.
One particular dog, Archie, had his ears and tail cruelly docked by a previous owner. Despite the challenges, O’Hair’s passion for animal welfare is unwavering.

Her message is clear: shelters are overflowing, and fostering or adopting a dog in need is a life-changing act for both the pet and the human.
