Foster Families for Temporary Care of BAARK's Dogs

Get Connected Icon Get Connected Icon ongoing

Description

Fosters/Foster Families are the lifeline of BAARK's Animal Rescue Program. Because our Organization does not have a shelter, all dogs reside in temporary foster homes....until they move along to their forever homes via adoption.

It is important that Fosters have dog experience and are able to work with the foster dog to ensure he/she is ready for adoption. Sometimes, this involved teaching basic manners, other times it is helping a frightened dog become more confident and trusting of people, and still other times, ensuring the dog receives the medical care needed by taking him/her to vet appointments and nursing back to health.

Once a family is approved to foster a BAARK dog, the family is contacted when a dog meeting their skills and preferences enters BAARK's Rescue Program.  The length of the commit varies with each dog and his/her need as well as the time to which the family can commit.

Fostering Saves Lives!!
