Freedom Dog Foster Carer

Dogs Trust Freedom

Could you foster a dog and in turn help a family? By providing a temporary home for a dog you will be helping a whole family get to safety. Fostering with Dogs Trust Freedom is free, all essential equipment is provided and you'll receive ongoing support from our experienced team.

Detailed Description

Dogs Trust Freedom is a specialist dog fostering service helping people find freedom from domestic abuse. As many refuges aren’t able to accept pets, we place dogs with a loving foster carer for an average of 6-9 months, enabling people to access a refuge or emergency housing, knowing their dog will be cared for until they're ready to have them back. By volunteering to foster a dog you will enable the owner to access a refuge, safe in the knowledge that their dog is being loved and cared for until they're ready to be reunited. Freedom foster carers are not only helping a dog in their time of need, they're supporting a whole family on their journey towards freedom. Fostering has all the benefits of owning a dog, without the expense or long-term commitment. Placements can last around 6 to 9 months and Dogs Trust covers all food, expenses and veterinary bills. We'll provide all the equipment your foster dog will need during their time with you.
