Foster Volunteers
Due to the special needs of some of our rescues, we require that all of our foster homes have a yard that has a physical enclosure (not an electronic fence) to ensure their safety and comfort. Please fill in the following information. When you submit this form, it will be forwarded to our Rescue Chair via email. When we receive the completed form back from you, it will be kept on file until we have a need for foster in your area. Thank you so much for your interest and desire to help a Cavalier! Please submit your foster application in a separate transaction from completing the transportation information. Otherwise, we will not receive the foster information. We're sorry for the inconvenience.

Foster Agreement

I (We) agree to accept responsibility for any and all events that occur in connection with the fostering of a rescue.  I (We) agree to release, indemnify, and hold harmless, Lucky Star Cavalier Rescue, its agents, members, officers, volunteers or employees, from any and all claims, known and unknown, now or hereafter, arising in connection with the rescue dog.

I (We) also understand that many of these dogs have lived in a neglectful and/or abusive environment, and have probably lost their self-esteem and confidence.  I (We) understand that this dog will need rehabilitating to become the warm, loving companion every dog should be.  I (We) agree to provide the loving environment, the socialization, and the training that this dog will need to become a beloved member of a family.

I (We) agree to comply with all state and local laws and ordinances relating to the temporary fostering of this dog.

I (We) understand that the rescue has been fully evaluated by a veterinarian.   Excepting a bona fide emergency, I (We) agree to obtain prior approval from Lucky Star Cavalier Rescue for any additional medical attention believed necessary.
 
I (We) agree to transition the rescue into his adoptive home as quickly and as successfully as possible.  I (We) will complete an evaluation of the dog’s personality, behavior and temperament, and provide the adoptive family with a copy of this assessment.

I (We) agree to work with Lucky Star Cavalier Rescue as much as possible in determining a suitable adoptive home for this rescue.
