Could I become a foster parent for shelter dogs?

I live in a very dog friendly apartment complex. I make good money and i love animals. I ahve always volunteered and kennels and rescues trying to help the homeless dogs and cats. Do you think any rescue organization would let me be a foster home?Could I become a foster parent for shelter dogs?
Possibly - it would all depend on an assessment fron the shwelter or breed rescue in question, and their evaluation of you as a foster carer. The best thing to do is to approach an establishment or two and ask about the process of becoming a foster parent.





Breed rescues especially often require foster carers for all kinds of dogs; unlike shelters and humane associations, most don't have premesis and so rely on members and volunteers to care for any dogs who can't remain in their owners' home until a new home is found.Could I become a foster parent for shelter dogs?
Best to go talk with the people at the rescue center, let them check you out according to your knowledge and ability. If they say ';Great'; go for it
Yes!! I work for a rescue group and we are dire need of fosters. Please look at our website and see if you are interested...we have wonderful dogs who need transition homes. It's called ShihTzu and Furbaby rescue and the website is www.stfbr.com ...good luck and thanks so much for the interest!
Each one has different criteria for fosterers. Check with the ones you've worked with and ask.
Definitely.


You sound like a great foster parent!
Absolutely!! Rescues are always looking for foster familys!


On petfinder.com when you click on a pic of a dog usually at the bottom is the rescue groups info and an application for fosters.


Pam
probably, only prob that you live in an apt
ask some of those shelters you have volunteered for...and look for the no kill shelter they tend to need people to foster the animals..i think you would make a great temp home for a dog..they only want love and attention and it sounds like you have plenty to give
Sounds like you would be a good candidate. Certain animals at our shelter are only fostered to people who are home all the time, but many are fostered by working people. Usually those who have injuries they are recovering from or illness when they are not ready to be adopted, but don;t need constant care.





I know our rescue is always looking for good foster homes.





Check out your local shelters. Most have application forms to fill out. Ours has orientation you have to do first as well as pass home visits etc. Why not put the wheels in motion.





Good luck.
