Thank you for your interest in helping DMA Puppy Rescue. Our foster homes, many
of which have been with us from the beginning, experience great joy and deep
satisfaction when they see that through their efforts a neglected dog gets a second
chance at life and a new opportunity to share his or her unconditional love with
people who care.

Being a foster home means sharing your home with a rescued dog: providing,
shelter, toys, walks and lots of attention, until a permanent home for the dog is
approved. We will provide the foster home with food for the foster dog and pay any
vet care expenses.  We count on our foster homes to evaluate temperament and
observe behaviors in a variety of situations, and we welcome those updates so we
can assess the dog and enhance the description on the web site. Positive
reinforcement training is encouraged. Most foster care situations require 2 weeks
to a month of residential foster care, and in some cases where the dog is ill or
older, several months.

The most important requirements are time and attention. You must be willing to
include the dog in family activities, allow the dog to live as a house dog with much
human companionship, and provide daily one-on-one time with your rescue,
including cuddles, play, and walks on leash.  The dog may not be completely
house trained, in which case use the crate and take the dog out on leash, giving
praise and treat reward when the dog is successful.  If you do not have a crate one
will be provided by us.  If interested in fostering please fill out the application below.
Thank You for considering fostering a rescued dog!

Volunteers/Foster families also accept liability for personal injury or damages
caused by a rescue dog.  Volunteers agree by signing below that working with
animals is unpredictable, and the utmost caution must be taken in caring for foster
animals.  While the animal is living with a foster family, it will remain the property
Dad's My Angel Puppy Rescue and, therefore, all final decisions regarding the
welfare of the animal will be the responsibility of Dad's My Angel Puppy Rescue.

By submitting this application for consideration, you agree to abide by the
policies and procedures of Dad's My Angel Puppy Rescue.
