Can You Make The Commitment?
Foster Homes are such an important part of Rescue. We rely on our Foster homes to be that "special place" for a Golden coming from one environment and preparing for that "forever" home. Our foster families play a critical role in insuring that their foster Golden finds the perfect new home. Their input during the placement process determines which family will provide the best home and brightest future. We are recruiting for new Foster Homes, we’d be pleased to receive your FOSTER APPLICATION and to learn of your interests and experience. Often when a dog is in need and is brought to our attention we need to act quickly in identifying a Foster Home. Your application will be retained and considered as needed. |
What does it take to be a foster home?
|
Our foster home applicants are contacted by the Foster Home Coordinator and a time set up to come to the applicants home and do an evaluation as to what the home is like, and to answer any questions the applicant may have. This also helps to establish a relationship between the coordinator and the foster home. This relationship is key to the open lines of communication needed during the fostering process.
You may decide how often you want to foster. Many times our foster homes "need a break," or only want to foster once or twice a year. That is why it is important to have enough foster homes so that the rescue program doesn't have to turn down a surrender situation "because there is no room." |
