Our foster families are the heart of our rescue and re-homing endeavours.

Without our foster homes we would not be able to help as many dogs as we do.   

We are always seeking new foster families in the Fleet/Guildford and surrounding areas to help our dogs start their journey to their new lives. 

Every dog which we offer for adoption receives extensive publicity through social media and website.
Our Facebook page alone has over 27,000 followers. As a result the majority of our rescued dogs find their forever homes very quickly. At times we help shyer dogs so these may take a little longer in foster to adapt to their new UK lives. 

The role of our foster homes is to help each dog adapt to home life.  Many of our dogs come directly from shelters, they may need assistance with toilet training, walking on the lead, and becoming braver with routine noises and surroundings. 

With the help of a little time in a foster home our dogs adapt wonderfully with foster families  give them the helping start they need in order to become loved family pets. 

We will provide all the supplies you'll need for your guest and, of course, we will be on hand to provide any support or advice you might need.
