Additional comments
Magnificent Mutts Rescue will provide initial vaccination and medication for minor ailments. We will also provide spay/neuter surgery as well as other procedures we feel are necessary and appropriate. However, such assistance is not guaranteed. Each case is determined by the Magnificent Mutts Rescue staff.
Term 1
As a foster parent, I understand that I will be required to keep foster dog(s) on a leash while walking them. I understand that foster dogs must be kept indoors when they are not being walked, and a collar with a Mag Mutts tag kept on at all times.
Initials
*
Term 2
As a foster parent, I understand that I may have an animal in my care for a short period of time (1 week) or an extended period of time (as many as 3 months or more), and that the amount of time is subject to change depending on circumstances of the Magnificent Mutts Rescue. I understand that if I will be on vacation during the period of time I am being asked to foster, I am obliged to inform the Rescue to allow the shelter to find the most suitable temporary accommodations for the foster animal(s).
Initials
*
Term 3
I understand that, although a foster animal from the Magnificent Mutts Rescue is in my care, the foster animal is the sole property of the Magnificent Mutts Rescue, and that the animal(s) shall be returned to the Magnificent Mutts Rescue upon request, or if I am no longer able to adequately care for the animal(s).
Initials
*
Term 4
I understand that as a foster parent, I do not have any right or authority to keep the foster animal(s), to place foster animal(s) in other homes, or to place animals with other individuals/applicants unless permission is given in writing from the Magnificent Mutts Rescue Foster Program Administrator.
Initials
*
Term 5
I understand that I must get permission from the Magnificent Mutts Rescue for any expenses as a result of fostering an animal(s) including, but not limited to, food, veterinary care, grooming, training, and medication.
Initials
*
Term 6
I understand and accept that while I am caring for foster animals, the Magnificent Mutts Rescue may call me from time to time to check on the animals' progress and to address any concerns I may have.
Initials
*
Term 7
I understand that it is occasionally necessary to euthanize animals that have been in foster care, and that this is at the discretion of the Magnificent Mutts Rescue, although it is an option of last resort.
Initials
*
Term 8
As a foster parent, I agree to abide by all animal control laws with regard to the foster animals in my care.
Initials
*
Term 9
I am not taking a foster animal for any purpose other than to provide temporary care for the animal.
