Getting The Best of Both Worlds If you are interested in fostering for us please one of the following: Sue or Steve & Karen
Do you or someone you know want a
dog to share your life with BUT:
1. You cannot commit to a dog for
it's lifetime due to your age, your job situation, your future housing needs.
2. You would like to have a dog,
but the medical costs prevent you from having one.
3.Your dog has passed away, and
you are not ready to commit to another just yet.
4.You enjoy walking and running
-but don't like to do so alone.
5. You enjoy the challenge of
training a dog, but don't want to go thru the "puppy" thing again.
If any of these apply to you,
then maybe fostering a dog for rescue would be just what you are looking for.
Unless a dog has a medical problem, such as Heartworm-fostering is usually for
a period of 3 to 4 weeks. During this time the dog will need to be crate
trained if it is not already , some require housebreaking, and some need to
learn the basics of obedience and leash walking. They need to be socialized
to different situations, such as taking to a petstore, having them greet
strangers in your home-see how they are with other dogs and with cats if
possible.
All medical costs are paid for by
rescue-and it does require dog experience to be a foster home.
If you think this is something
you would want to try-please click on the CONTACT US button-we would love to
discuss the option with you. Many dogs are passed over due to lack of foster
homes-so if you love this breed-consider being a foster home
