Terrier - Medium - Young - Female - Dog - Be A Foster Home!

The Animal Care & Control Team [ACCT] Foster Program is one of the many life saving arms of the PSPCA. The primary reason for foster care is to provide a temporary home for a potentially adoptable animal whose current condition is not manageable in a shelter setting. Please email nsmith@pspca.org for more information about our Foster Care Program. Do not use the "Email Pennsylvania SPCA" link at the bottom. PSPCA ACCT receives more dogs than there is space, and so moving dogs into foster homes not only saves them, but also the dog who gets their old cage space. Fostering a shelter animal is a wonderful and rewarding experience but can also be time consuming and hard work. Please seriously consider all of the aspects of the foster care program before deciding to apply to foster. Although previous fostering experience is not required, ideal foster care provider will have basic knowledge of animal care and training and be committed to finding their foster animal a safe and loving forever home. As a foster care provider, you will provide the animals with care including, food, water, shelter, training, grooming and medical treatment when necessary. The PSPCA will provide clinic and vet care, behavior and training resources, and adoption counseling. You will also get free wellness care for up to four of your own animals at our vet clinic. Please come down to PSPCA ACCT any day (the sooner the better!) 9am-6pm to fill out a foster application and meet the many wonderful dogs in need of foster care. If you have dogs of your own, you need to bring at least one in to meet any potential foster dogs and make sure there is no major personality clash. Please also bring proof that you are allowed dogs at your home if you rent. PSPCA ACCT is located at: 111 W. Hunting Park Ave, Phila., PA 19140 Foster Care hours are 9am to 6pm Mon-Sun. Please email nsmith@pspca.orgfor more information. (Posted on 05/04/09 by kb)
