If for any reason the Fostering does not workout, it may take us some time to find another foster before we can arrange a pick up and another foster home. At no point will you relocate the dog to another home, shelter or pound. Please indicate that you understand this dog will stay in your care until we can safely rehome it.

Foster Volunteers
Each volunteer must be over the age of 18 with the consent of the primary home owner to foster a dog or proof from a landlord that pets are allowed in the residence. Anyone that is looking to Foster to Adopt must have fostered at least 3 times with the rescue before we allow adoption to take place.
Thank you again for you interest in becoming a Foster Guardian with Northern Connection. Once your application has been submitted we will screen each applicant and contact those that are the best fit. We will then set up a phone interview to discuss and then place you on the waiting list of Foster Homes.
