Dear potential Respite Fosters/ New Applicants
Having trouble filling out the form at www.flyingdogscanada.com ???
Then Email us at [email protected] and we can help if you are having trouble putting in the application.
Please bear in mind that no reputable rescue is going to send a dog to someone who doesn't apply and just wants to message through Facebook with no follow through.
We have to check references unless you have already adopted/ fostered with us.
We get people messaging telling us about their families and pets and it seems they think fostering happens over facebook. It doesn't.
We need an IP address attached to sn application, ID, a veterinarian to vouch for you being a client. The ID needs to match your face at the homevisit. Your spouse needs to be on board/ in the loop and agreeable.
Adoption is easier because you have to only be great with dogs.
As a Foster team member you need to be great with dogs AND communicative witb fb messenger, have a steady, pragmatic character and have the capacity to follow Flying Dogs foster protocols. We need to actually like you and you need to like us....enough to be able to work as a team. We will support you as best we can throughout.
We have fantastic fosters who are full and can no longer foster actively because they adopted several dogs from us. However they very kindly stick around to welcome, help and advise incoming new foster team members.
Give it a try? You don't have to commit if you go through the process. You can take your time.
📣Caregiver Respite Needed ‼️📣
We need hands🖐 on help, starting this weekend:
Could you offer up 3 to 6 weeks [ flexible] of foster care to a foster dog in need, owing to caregiver injury?
We have three dogs🦮🐕🦺🐶 needing a placement separately or two could be together💘💝.
☆Locations for Fosters can be BC, Alberta and NWT ☆
[ For adoption there is no geographical restriction within Canada ]
Please email [email protected]
Or message your Adoption or Foster support chat or Flying Dogs Canada directly if you can help.
Dog Food and support can be provided.
We are also keen to hear from new fosters or those who would like to join our team👱♀️👴🧑🦱👩🦱🧑🦰👩🧑🦲🧔🧔♀️👨🦱👨🦳🧔♀️🧔♂️🧕🧑🍼👷♂️.
We just don't have the funds for temporary boarding of 3 dogs for a minimum of 3 weeks.
However if we did have funds then that would resolve this.
Gas will be needed to move the dogs into placements.
