FOSTER EXPECTATIONS & THINGS TO KNOW
THE LENGTH OF TIME YOU MAY HAVE A FOSTER ANIMAL MAY VARY. BE PREPARED TO HAVE ANY NEW ANIMALS IN A SAFE SPACE AWAY FROM ALL OTHER ANIMALS FOR THE FIRST 24 HOURS. AFTER THE FIRST 24 HOURS YOU WILL BE EXPECTED TO KEEP YOUR FOSTER ANIMAL FOR 5-7 DAYS TO LEARN ABOUT THEIR PERSONALITY, ENSURE THEY HAVE ALL OF THEIR NECESSARY MEDICAL CARE, AND ARE PREPARED TO FIND THEIR FOREVER FAMILY! AFTER AN ANIMAL IS READY FOR ADOPTION, THE LENGTH OF TIME BEFORE A FOSTER ANIMAL WILL BE ADOPTED WILL DEPEND ON HOW LONG IT TAKES TO FIND THIER PUR-FECT FAMILY! ON AVERAGE, ANIMALS ARE IN FOSTER CARE FOR 2-3 WEEKS!
YOU WILL NEED TO BECOME AN APPROVED FOSTER BEFORE YOU CAN OFFICIALLY FOSTER WITH KARL’S CANINE KREW. AFTER YOUR FOSTER APPLICATION HAS BEEN APPROVED BY A KARL’S CANINE KREW FOSTER COORDINATOR, YOU WILL BE CONTACTED TO SET UP A HOME INSPECTION. HOME INSPECTIONS HELP US ENSURE OUR ANIMALS WILL BE IN A SAFE AND LOVING FOSTER HOME.
KARL’S CANINE KREW WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH FOOD AND SUPPLIES, AND WE PROVIDE THE VETERINARY CARE FOR ALL ANIMALS. HOWEVER, YOU WILL BE REQUIRED TO TRANSPORT YOUR ANIMAL TO AND FROM VET APPOINTMENTS. YOU MAY ALSO BE REQUIRED TO TRANSPORT YOUR FOSTER ANIMAL TO AND FROM ADOPTION EVENTS.
YOU MUST ADHERE TO PACFA RULES AND REGULATIONS AT ALL TIMES WHILE FOSTERING WITH KARL’S CANINE KREW. THESE RULES AND REGULATIONS WILL BE GONE OVER DURING A NEW FOSTER ORIENTATION. ALL FOSTER’S WILL BE REQUIRED TO ATTEND A NEW FOSTER ORIENTATION UPON APPROVAL TO FOSTER, AND COMPLETION OF A HOME INSPECTION CONDUCTED BY A KARL’S CANINE KREW REPRESENTATIVE.
KARL’S CANINE KREW ASKS OUR FOSTER FAMILIES TO BE SOMEWHAT “TECH-SAVVY” AS WE DO RELY ON FACEBOOK GROUPS, SIGNUP GENIUS, GOOGLE DOCS, AND VARIOUS OTHER WEBSITES AND EMAIL TO COMMUNICATE WITH OUR FOSTER FAMILIES.
