Are yo
u interested in fostering a dog for DFD? You can give dogs in training the boost they need to go from under dog to WONDER DOG!
| UPDATE: 12.5.2012 Dogs for the Deaf is in IMMEDIATE NEED of volunteer foster parents for both long term and short term doggie sitting assignments. READ MORE >>> |
Why fostering is a good choice:
- You can make an important contribution to DFD by helping prepare dogs for their future work.
- You can get your "dog fix" without the cost of owning a dog.
- DFD provides food and is responsible for all veterinary and financial needs of the dog.
- You have the freedom to travel unhindered because the length of fostering varies, and DFD will keep the dog if you are gone.
Criteria:
- Patience to work with a young, active dog and teach house manners
- Fully fenced yard
- Must live in the southern Oregon area
- Willingness and flexibility to transport dogs either to/from DFD or to/from meeting place
- Willingness to communicate with trainers
