At PAWS we are not donated any medical products so when we rescue a dog from the Pound our rescuers have to pay all costs. We ask that if a fostered dog gets sick or injured they must be taken to one of our Rescue Vets as they are very good to us and will not charge huge fees. This means PAWS rescuer needs to be notified before treatment is commenced. If it is an extreme emergency and the dog has to be taken to the nearest vet, we would expect that the Foster Carer contact us as soon as possible as we need to authorise any treatment other than what is initially necessary to stabilise the fostered dog.

If the dog is in your care for longer than one month then we ask that you Frontline them and keep the Heartworm preventative medication going, but the main thing is to feed your foster dog and love him or her as if they were your own!

You may want to check the following before you complete the form:

	If you are renting or in a villa or townhouse does the      landlord or body corporate allow dogs?
	Do you need to consult with family members      or housemates?
	Will your fences need to be repaired to make your yard       secure for a dog?
	Are your your own dog's vaccinations up to date? If not,  we recommend that your pet have a C5 vaccination  (which includes kennel cough) before you foster a dog.
