Fostering

Urgent Appeal: Can you help Annie?
We are looking for a foster carer urgently for Annie, a dark brindle and white 2-3 year old staffie female. Annie was abandoned at a pound, and her time was up. We placed her into emergency boarding kennels to get her out of danger, but she has been in kennels for too long Annie would be best in foster care with no other dogs/cats, but she is a really loving and sweet girl, who would love to be out of kennels and in the comfort of a caring foster home. If you can help, please contact: cathy@oncelovedrescue.org.uk. Thank you!

Help save a life by fostering an abandoned dog.

We are in urgent need of foster homes either long term, short term, or emergency fostering. We are looking for people who have lots of love to give and time available to care for a rescue dog whilst they are looking for a forever home. We ask that fostered dogs are not left alone for any more than 3 hours at a time. We do not place any dogs into foster homes where there are children under the age of 8 years old. You will also need a secure, enclosed garden. Dogs looking for foster homes will be fully assessed, and fully vaccinated before placement. Foster homes in the South West UK areas are particularly needed.

Once Loved Dog Rescue will cover costs for all veterinary treatment, worming and flea treatment whilst any dog is in your care, but as we are a voluntary organisation, if foster carers wanted to contribute towards the cost of food, for instance, while a dog is in their care this would be most welcome!

Fostering is not always easy but it is incredibly rewarding. Rescue dogs can be fantastic house guests, but they can also be hard work at times. They may have some issues, as would anyone if they had been abandoned! But with love and care, regular walks and a routine, it won’t be long before they blossom and become happy, well balanced dogs.

Foster carers are extremely important to us, and we will be there throughout the entire fostering process to provide you with advice and support, should any problems arise.

If you would like to be part of an abandoned dog’s happy tale, please consider becoming a foster carer.
