Handbook

Welcome to Dog Bless, and thank you for fostering! Whether you have been in rescue for years, or this is your first time fostering, you are performing a vital role in the rescuing process. Because of you, Dog Bless can assist rescue groups by ensuring the dogs they pull are healthy, well adjusted, and ready to be adopted the moment of transport. By committing to foster a dog, you have guaranteed that dog a bright future. Because the foster family’s role is vital to the achievement of Dog Bless’ mission, the intent of this handout is to provide you with the resources necessary to make the transition into fostering as simple as possible.
