Although Riverview Rescues does everything in our power to assess the animal before placing it in foster care we do not guarantee ages, breeds, and temperament. If an animal becomes aggressive towards a person, another animal, or household items it is the full responsibility of the foster, not Riverview Rescues. We will do everything within our power to prevent any such issues from occurring and help you, the foster, prevent any such issues from occurring.
