We ask that you bathe and brush your foster dog before the visitors arrive. Please tell them all the positive and negative things you have observed about the foster dog. Do not omit any behavior or medical problems the foster dog may have. Also ask questions to ascertain that they are the best match for your foster dog. When an adoption has been approved, you will be given at least 24 hours notice to prepare the dog for adoption.
Preparation includes bathing and making sure the dog a sufficient supply of any medications.
Your call will be returned within 72 hours. After your application is received, it will be assigned to one of our Home Visitor volunteers. This volunteer will call you and arrange an appointment to visit your home to discuss the foster program. Please be aware that it may take up to 3 weeks from the time you mail your application to the time you receive a call. If fostering isn't for you, we're always looking for volunteers.
