Types of Foster Dogs
We rescue a wide range of dogs and puppies, and it is important to match the dog to the foster carer
and their household.
We rescue dogs of all ages, shapes and sizes including:
​
-
Neonatal - Under 4 months old (these babies need round the clock care!)
-
Puppy - Between 4 and 12 months old
-
Adult - 12 months old +
-
Senior Dog - 8 years old +
​​
Our foster carers have direct contact with our foster coordinators and are invited to join a foster carer support group chat where we have qualified and experienced team members who can help to answer any questions. This is a supportive and non-judgmental group of animal lovers who appreciate the challenges of fostering and are there to help.
We can usually give you an estimated timeline of how long a dog will be in your care (with the exception of behavioural or palliative as that is often case-by-case). Even with puppies, circumstances can change quite quickly with illness, infections and so on.
