Fostering

In this post we will be appealing to all you dog lovers out there to consider fostering and also letting you know more about it.

At the moment we have several lovely dogs in kennels who are looking for foster homes, where they can be assessed and put up for rehoming. Obviously, all of our supporters here at Four Paws Animal Rescue are animal lovers and most of them already have their own dogs, which is what makes this trickier!

Bliss

UPDATE: Bliss has left kennels and is a step closer to her forever home. In kennels at the moment we have Bliss – an American Bulldog girl who is very friendly towards people and children, even other dogs while on neutral ground but she will not tolerate another dominate female in her household. Perhaps you have a calm, laid back male dog who wouldn’t mind having Bliss come to stay until she finds her forever home? Long term she is looking for a home with experienced owners, children over 10 years old and no other dogs.

Seth

Seth has come on leaps and bounds since we picked him up from the pound all those months ago. He has been in kennels for far too long now and is ready for his move into foster care so he can begin his assessment.  Despite adoring people, Seth doesn't get on with other dogs so will need to be the only dog in the household. Could you give him a chance? For more information please click here http://forum.fourpawsanimalrescue .org.uk/index.php?topic=7284.0

Rolo has recently returned to us after 16 months in a lovely home, where he was loved and adored. He came back to us due to a personality clash with the other male dog in the house. We are hopeful that he doesn’t hold a grudge against all dogs, as he lived with the female dog too with no problem at all. Unfortunately we cannot find this out until a suitable foster home comes forward where he can be assessed.

Jasper

 Jasper, the five year old Staffordshire bull terrier, was handed in by his owners as they were working very long hours and didn't want to keep leaving him at home on his own. Now, this boy is dog friendly and people friendly but sadly is being overlooked in our kennels. Could you offer him a foster home?

Fostering is incredibly hard work, but it is incredibly rewarding. It takes a very special person to put all that time and effort into rehabilitating a dog and then parting with him when his special home comes along. It is all part of his journey though and fosterers realise that there are many more souls who need their help.

Foster carers are invaluable to us and there is always support for them at the other end of the phone or on our active forum. As well as support the charity pays for the foster dog’s vets bills, as well as food and necessary supplies.
