Are You Interested in Fostering?

Become a DAWG Foster Carer 🐾

Every day, animals in our community rely on caring people to give them a second chance. Foster carers provide temporary homes where animals can be safe, loved, and cared for while waiting for adoption or transport.

Fostering isn’t just about providing a bed — it’s about giving animals the time and space they need to heal, grow, and thrive. Some animals need short-term support for a few days or weeks, while others may require longer-term care to fully recover or adjust. Every home, no matter the length of stay, makes a real difference.

Why Foster?

• Give an animal a safe, loving environment away from stress or harm.

• Support their medical treatment, recovery, or socialisation.

• Help DAWG save more animals — without foster homes, we simply can’t take them in.

Who Can Foster?

Anyone with a little space, patience, and compassion. Homes can be temporary or longer-term, and we provide guidance and support every step of the way. No prior experience is needed — just a willingness to help.

Your Home Could Save a Life

Fostering allows us to help more animals and provide personalised care that simply isn’t possible in a shelter environment. Even a short-term commitment can have a huge impact.
