🐾 Got a dog? You could still foster!
One of the questions we hear from people thinking about fostering is:
“Can I foster if I have a dog?” 🐶
The answer is yes, in many cases.
Your dog will be considered as part of your fostering assessment, and your fostering service will make sure any placement is safe and suitable for both your dog and the child.
And for some children, having a friendly four-legged companion around can bring comfort, companionship and a little bit of joy during a difficult time.
We're celebrating the dogs who are a big part of fostering families. ❤️🐕
Don't let having a dog stop you from exploring fostering.
