Foster
Application
Thank you for your interest in fostering for Milo’s Dog Rescue of South Florida. This is a questionnaire to help you communicate with us what you are interested in doing, and also the Foster Agreement so you know what our expectations are, and what you can expect from us.
Please remember that Milo’s Dog Rescue rescues animals from many different situations. Some are coming out of a shelter environment, some have been mistreated and abused, and others may have never lived in a home before.
All animals will need some time of adjustment into a new foster home, but your honesty on this form will help us match you up with a pet that will suit your home and potential limitations and/or strengths.
