Fostering a dog helps him learn to behave well outside the shelter environment. You can help your foster dog get ready for his forever home by having him in your home for a short period of time. Ask your local animal shelter or a rescue group to help you select the dog you can best care for. Determine what your responsibilities are especially financial commitments. Envision how this dog will fit into your home environment even though it is temporarily. Consider the size, temperament and breed of the foster dog you select. Keep your existing pets in mind. Ask the shelter or rescue about behavior issues, fears or special needs that you need to keep in mind. Establish a daily routine for your foster dog including obedience training, exercising and playtime. The most important thing is to treat your foster dog with patience and kindness.
