FOSTERING 

Fostering is a wonderful way to get your family involved and it is a great teaching moment for the whole family.

To see a dog go from broken and scared, to happy and confident, is a beautiful transformation. 

Old Dominion provides medical care, food, collar, leash, toys, and a crate. You provide the love, attention, and basic training and there you have the recipe for success!

After you fill out the foster application, we will help match you to the best dog for you or your family. We have the right dog for your situation, whether it be small, medium, or large dogs.  We also have puppies of all ages and even pregnant moms that need homes to birth their puppies in. 

Yes there are a few rules we have for our fosters to ensure the safety of the dog and the family, but we have a handbook to go over with you and you will have a copy to refer back to.

Most of our communication is done on a members only  Facebook page that you will be added to once you are an approved foster. This is the best way for us to all work together as a team to get the dogs taken care of. If you do not already have a Facebook account - please make one prior to foster training.

FAQS

What if I fall in love with my foster?
Fosters have the option of adopting their foster dog. If you are the thinking about adopting your foster, let us know right away. 

What if my foster doesn't work out in my home?
We have a very flexible system that allows you to "swap" out a new foster dog. Just think of it as a little slumber party for that 1st foster dog. 


Will my foster dog come fully vetted?
If you prefer your foster dog is fully vetted we certainly do have dogs that are vetted. But most of our foster dogs are in need of a foster home while we complete the vet work on them.


How will I trust a dog I don't know the background to?
90% of our dogs have very extensive temp tests done before they even come to us. We prefer to not focus on the past with these dogs, yet we focus on the future.
