By asking them questions regarding how you can appropriately take care of your dog, you are showing the volunteers your concern and passion for the pet you’re about to take into your home. They operate as a foster-based organization where rescued animals are cared for by loving families as they wait for people to give them a home for the rest of their life. Remember that the dog you’re about to take under your wing may be feeling extremely vulnerable and wary of others due to their history. So it may take several visits, pets, and treat-giving before they warm up to you. By investing your time in visiting them in their foster homes and befriending them even before they’re permanently yours, you have a higher chance of being approved by the rescue volunteers. If you want to ace your application, I suggest that you read our ultimate adoption guide which features key tips and techniques starting from choosing the breed to home introduction.
