FOSTER OR FOSTER TO ADOPT
Why Foster?
For those dogs that are highly stressed at the kennel, it is very
difficult for them to be truly "seen" by potential adopters. They may
exhibit behaviors in the kennel environment that do not manifest
in a home. Therefore, WAG tries very hard to have as many dogs
as possible placed in Foster homes while they await adoption.
Fostering is a truly rewarding way to help dogs in need transition
from shelter life to a permanent home.
What is Foster to Adopt?
If you are considering adopting a dog that may have a treatable medical condition, it is always better that they complete their treatment in a stable home environment. By Fostering to Adopt, the pup is treated through WAG and once treatment is completed, you finalize the adoption.
As a Foster "parent" for a WAG dog, you will be provided with the necessities of caring for a dog. Food, medical care and medications are provided. All you need is an appropriate living situation and lots of love!
