Hi. We are starting to recruit families in our area to foster dogs for the shelter which involves some of the dogs at the local city pound. We have stray dogs that owners do not come for as well as owner released dogs.
How does the foster care system that you are involved with operate? We already have contracts and guidelines that they have to follow. We dont have any evaluations on the city dogs except what is observed by the AC officer. Also does the organization you foster with have a holding period for their dogs before they are fostered out? Technically we can foster or adopt out a city stray in 5 days. Owner released dogs immmediatly. All dogs are speutered,vaccinated and dewormed.
Do you foster outside only or do you allow them to be in the house with you and your dogs? If they do come in what is the best approach for this?
Any input would be appreciated
