Foster Homes Needed Urgently by Grateful Dogs Rescue

Grateful Dogs Rescue in the San Francisco bay area currently is in need of many new foster homes as the number of dogs we can save is dependent on having a place for them to stay until we can find them a loving home.

Fostering is the first step in giving a dog or puppy a second chance. For many dogs, the process of being kept in an unfamiliar shelter and then going to an unfamiliar home is very traumatic. While in a foster home, they have a chance to feel safe and secure, which will help prepare them for their new forever family.

What is involved in being a foster family?

• Providing temporary shelter and care for a dog or puppy, which typically ranges from a few weeks to a few months.
• Transporting the dog/puppy to vet appointments (when you or GDR believes it is necessary).
• Preparing a short profile of your foster dog. This will help in matching the dog, and also giving the potential adopters an honest description of the pet.
• Some foster parents bring their dog/puppy to adoption events and talk to potential adopters about their foster dog.
