Foster a Dog!

Fostering a dog is a rewarding way to save a life, give love, and help a dog find its forever home!

Having fostered three dogs, I can say that it’s one of the most rewarding experiences. If you’re looking for a way to make a real impact and enjoy companionship of a dog, fostering is the perfect opportunity to give love and save lives without a long-term commitment.

FAQs

What is fostering?

Fostering is when you temporarily welcome a dog into your home while they wait to find their forever family. It gives dogs a loving place to stay instead of being in a shelter.

How long do you have to foster?

The minimum foster commitment can vary depending on the organization, but where I volunteer (Social Tees Animal Rescue), it’s a two-week minimum.

What kind of challenges do you expect?

Fostering a dog is incredibly rewarding, but it can also be challenging. Each experience is different, shaped by your background, lifestyle, and the animal’s personality. Some dogs adjust quickly, while others may need extra patience, especially with accidents, barking, or housebreaking.
