Foster Family Team
We provide the homeless dog, pay all vet bills, provide crates, toys etc, you provide the TLC and attend adoption events. Meet the greatest volunteers, give back to dogs, save a life.
All of our rescued dogs and puppies are placed in foster homes until they are adopted. It allows us to learn about the dog's personality,
strengths, and shortcomings. This enables us to better match and place the dog in a happy permanent home.
We are always in need of foster homes. Our dogs are usually in a foster home a few months at a time. The foster home is responsible for all
aspects of caring for the foster dog. Columbus Dog Connection pays for all veterinary fees, food, a crate if necessary and toys when we have them.
Fostering a dog can be a rewarding experience for you and your family. If you have been considering adopting a dog, but are not ready to make that 10 to 15 year commitment, then fostering may be an attractive option for you. You will help a dog, meet some of the best people on the planet and
get a feeling of need and fulfillment. Imagine... the effort you make will be the difference between life and death.
Fostering isn't a commitment for life, it's a commitment to save a life.
