Foster Homes

Foster homes are our most valuable resource.  The foster parents are the people who really have a chance to get to know each dog within the context of a normal home environment, which provides valuable insight in helping us to determine what type of home will best be able to meet the individual needs of each dog.  Fostering rescue dogs can be extremely challenging and it can literally turn your entire household upside-down, but on the other hand, it can also be the most rewarding thing you’ll ever do!

Because most of our dogs come from shelters and there has often been a history of abuse or neglect, we are committed to ensuring that our foster parents are prepared to provide the level of daily care that each dog requires.  Foster parents play an integral role in the assessment, socialization and training of our rescue dogs.  Therefore, we ask everyone who is interested in fostering to go through a similar screening process as potential adopters.  This process helps us to determine which type of dog will be best-suited for your particular situation so that we can make the best possible match for both you and the dog.

While our dogs are in foster care, Furever After Small Dog Rescue covers all medical and grooming expenses, as well as the costs of any other special care that a particular dog may require.  In the event that a dog has behavioral issues that need to be addressed, we will work with you to provide the necessary training that is required.  The role of the foster family is to provide lots of love and a safe environment while helping the dog overcome any medical and/or behavioral challenges so that the perfect forever home can be found.  If you are interested in learning more about fostering, please contact us via e-mail.
