All foster dogs need to learn things such as house, crate, leash walking and may bark, cry, or have accidents in the house at first.
*
Fostering is about helping a dog get out of the shelter and into a home, it requires work, patience, consistency, and compassion! I can make it to 3 or more leash walking classes and regularly attend weekly zoom check-ins.
*
I am on board with following the Dog Coalition program structure. I agree to follow the support team’s guidance and understand that my support team are volunteers.
*
It is very common for dogs to have viruses or parasites in the shelter, so we highly recommend that dogs get a fecal test soon after they leave the shelter (especially if there are multiple dogs in the home). Negative fecal tests are also required for the dog to attend any playgroups. At our reduced rate, the tests are usually approximately $60.
