What’s the name(s) of their rescue(s)?

Your foster dog or puppy should spend as much time with your family as possible. In the first days of your fosters arrival we ask that you allow the dog to get familiar with crate training in an area that is calm for the him/her while settling into your family life. This is critical for their transition to a new home. Crate training is instrumental and will be vital for a dog that will need to transition into a forever home. Introducing your current dog can also be challenging and might require teamwork for the first hours or days.

Please describe your plans for keeping your dog happy and your household safe in the first hours of introduction and when you are not present at home:

RESCUED RASCALS FOSTER CARE APPLICATION

The exact breed of the majority of dogs is shared by us through the knowledge of our professional vets to the best of one’s knowledge.

The size of the dog when full grown that we rescue is indeterminate.

The nature of rescue leaves us being uncertain if a dog has had past behavioral issues; we share all information that was provided to us.

Therefore, we never make promises or guarantees as to the health, temperament, age, size, or behavior of a dog or puppy in our adoption program.

I have read the list above and considered everything

I confirm that all the information supplied on this profile is true and correct.

I also understand that foster information will be provided to me before I am able to begin fostering dogs for Rescued Rascals.

I understand that Rescued Rascals is not responsible for any property or personal damage, wounds inflicted, or illnesses caused by the foster animal(s). I am entering into this with full knowledge as outlined above about the risks and rewards of becoming a foster parent.

Completion of this application does not necessarily guarantee acceptance into the program.

The Illinois Department of Agriculture requires us to license all foster families. The license fee is $25.00. This will be paid for by Rescued Rascals. Please do not enter into this agreement unless you have a deep desire to help the homeless dogs and puppies in our program. Not everyone has the time to foster. Fortunately, we have many other undertakings you can become involved with and help in other ways.We believe the rewards of becoming a foster parent far outweigh the challenges you may encounter. At the end of the day, foster parents throughout the United States help save millions of lives each year.

Thank you for considering becoming a Foster Parent to a Homeless Dog or Puppy!
