As a foster home you are considered a temporary caregiver. Through Your Pets Eyes is the legal owner of all foster animals and although you are caring for an animal, they do not become yours. If you would like to be considered as an adopter for an animal you are fostering you must communicate your interest in the animal before other applicants apply. It is the rescues preference to adopt dogs to their foster homes, however foster homes may not change their mind once another applicant has been approved for the animal. The foster home will meet with an adoptive home within a timely manner. Initial Below:

Respect for the Rescue Team: As a foster home for Through Your Pets Eyes Rescue, I understand that fostering is a team effort and agree to treat all board members, volunteers, and fellow fosters with respect and professionalism. I acknowledge that final decisions regarding animal care, placements, and rescue operations are made by the board in the best interest of the animals. I agree to respect and follow these decisions, even if I may not personally agree with them, and to communicate any concerns in a constructive and respectful manner with a board member. Initial Below:

Positive Reinforcement Disclaimer (foster/adoptive homes)

If Through Your Pets Eyes Rescue learns that aversive or dominance based methods are used in a foster or adoptive home, the rescue will immediately investigate and gently counsel and remind the foster/adoptive home that the rescue only supports force free humane approaches with dogs, recommend the assistance of a force free trainer or behaviour consultant and remind them that insistance on using aversives may result in the dog being pulled from the home.

You will not use aversive devices such as air correctors, vibration, prong or shock collars, shock mats or any devices which emit citronella or ultra sonic or high pitched sounds or shock to deter or teach behaviours.

We do not recommend the use of trainers and behaviour specialists that use aversive or dominance based training methods.

As a rescue that follows positive reinforcement our animals are cared for as such and dogs in our care will get basic training but any additional training is up to the new adopter, we are willing to answer questions/concerns if need be with your new pet to the best of our ability. All dogs/cats bring adopted go through an adjustment period ( times can very from three hours to three months) which can include but not limited to : little appetite/having accidents/chewing/howling/pacing /lonely /shy etc every dog/cat is different . We just request patience, willingness and a big heart and we will help with guidance along the way if needed, routine can be very beneficial for a animal when newly adjusting.
