Apply to be a PawPrints Animal Rescue Foster TODAY!
Fostering is an integral part of the rescue process.  We need foster homes in order to save lives, treat medical issues and work on behavioral issues prior to adoption.

Foster families are responsible for providing a safe, loving environment for the foster animal, socializing, observing behaviors and reporting them back to PawPrints, as well as notifying PawPrints of any health or behavioral concerns.  All veterinary care must be discussed with and approved by PawPrints prior to assuming expenses.  The foster family will have input in the decision to approve an applicant for their foster animal.

The application will be reviewed by the Foster Coordinator and the Board of Directors and can be declined for any reason.
