FOSTER CARE
Foster care provides a temporary home that helps RAGOM determine a dog’s needs in a forever home. A foster home also provides the adoptive family with helpful information about the dog to ease transition and ensure a successful adoption. Foster families understand some dogs may have behaviors not typical of a Golden Retriever.
Essential To-Dos
- Provide food, exercise, and basic wellness
- Follow RAGOM’s procedures to keep them safe
- Schedule and attend veterinary appointments
- Improve the dog’s basic obedience
- Build the dog’s confidence
- Work with internal teams as needed
Finding Forever Homes
- Inspire adoption through weekly updates for the dogs website
- Evaluate the dog’s needs to determine the best forever home
- Collaborate with other RAGOM volunteers to support the dog’s needs
- Talk with and meet potential applicants, their families, their dogs in your home
- Understand foster care requires basic computer knowledge and skills
