If you love Seltene Meerschweinchenrassen and want to help them you should consider being an animal foster parent. You can volunteer to take animals into your home and take care of them until the rescue can find a “permanent home” for the animal. Most rescues prefer to put dogs in homes where you have a fenced yard, a safe home with ample room for the dogs. If you have children they will consider your children’s ages as well. Many small breed dogs aren’t always good with small children in the home under 12 years of age.
You will need lots of love, patience, understanding and time for the cats or dogs placed into your home. The animal will probably have some bad traits that you may need to work on as they have may have accidents in the house that you will need to correct or house train them. Also the dogs may have other issues that they will need some training with to make them better pets to potential owners. Whatever basic skills and training you can give the animal will help them become more appealing for their prospective families.
The animal rescue will want to have reports on how the animal is with you, your children and cats, dogs that they get along with. If you don’t have any other pets you can take your dog or cat to visit family or friends to see how well they get along with others, their children or pets. You need to see how well the animal interacts with others. If you drive the dog to the park you can record how well the dog travels in the car and how well they interact with other dogs at the park. This helps the animal rescue give new prospective owners information about their future pet so it makes it easier to place the animal in a new home.
Foster parents will also be responsible to take their animal to the vet for vaccinations, spading/neutering, dental care or any other needs of the animal. Most rescue groups pay for these costs so make sure they do before you proceed to do any work on the animals.
Fostering animals is hard work and you can become attached to the animals that you care for but you are helping many animals find good homes instead of being euthanized. It will also bring you great satisfaction that you helped one more animal to find a good quality home and then you can go on to help another.
