We are always looking for qualified Foster families who would be willing to take on the responsibility of a rescue dog on a temporary basis. Typically, the dog would need to be taken to a vet for a complete medical exam and groomed during this period. Most importantly, the dog would need a great deal of human interaction so as to ease the adjustment of the home change, and to provide us with feedback on the dog’s temperament and personality. If you are interested in qualifying as a Foster Home, see the Foster Home Application Form, print it and return it by mail. The Form is also available for download as a PDF Acrobat file. We applaud any family for their willingness to take on the responsibility and the challenges that go along with the fulfillment of rescuing a Bernese Mountain Dog.
