Fosters truly are the FRONT LINE for these dogs & a critical step in saving more lives! A foster home is a temporary living situation for dogs while they are awaiting placement in a permanent home. Foster families provide shelter, care, love, and guidance. The number of dogs we can save depends entirely on the number of people who will open their homes and hearts to foster them. For some of these dogs, this will be their first experience being treated as a family pet. You are their salvation and you should never underestimate the important role you are playing in their lives!
Being a foster family has rewards beyond the essential value of helping a pet in need while they find their forever home. For some, it is a chance to have a dog companion without making a lifetime commitment, or to try new companions for an existing pet. Foster Care is critical to our rescue efforts, the more homes we have, the more animals we can save. Becoming a foster family is a very rewarding experience.
None! Road To Freedom Rescue supplies everything needed to care for your foster dog. Food, treats, bowls, bed, blanket, crate, toys, potty pads, leash, harness, ID tag, etc.
Fosters will keep dogs an average of 1-3 weeks. We do our best to get our dogs into their forever homes quickly. There are also times when we need a last minute foster for a few days due to different circumstances. Your time commitment will be discussed up-front before you agree to foster the pet, but most foster families keep the dog until the dog gets adopted.
