SNAFU Rescue Volunteer Application

NOTE: New foster homes will not be allowed to adopt their very first foster dog. Additionally, all foster homes who have not yet fostered a puppy (a foster dog under the age of 2 years old), will not be permitted to apply for/adopt their first foster puppy (even if it’s their 2nd, 3rd or 10th foster dog).

Please keep this in mind if you are interested in fostering, especially if you are mainly interested in fostering because you are looking to adopt. We know that it is not always easy to part with foster dogs but please know that we will continue to enforce this policy within SNAFU Rescue.
