Fosters are what make our organization go, go, go! The more fosters we have, the more pups we can welcome into safe, loving environments before they are ready to be adopted into permanent, forever homes.
The LSAR Foster Program is simple: We supply the pet, just add food, shelter and love! We will take care of all approved veterinary costs (including medications) for your LSAR foster pet. We just ask you treat them like one of your own; give them food/water, a soft, safe place to lay their head, and lots of love.
You do not have to be a dog whisperer to apply! No degree or special training is required. But make no mistake, fosters are indeed very special people! Fosters must be loving, patient, giving and dedicated. If this sounds like you, we'd be delighted to have you on our team!
Please note: A complete (and approved) application, as well as a home visit are required to join the LSAR Foster Program. We are currently "recruiting" fosters within our service area only. Please apply to foster if you currently reside within Texas or Oklahoma.
FOSTER PROGRAM
TUCKER
Stats: 2 years old, male
Location: TX
Intake: 9/8/24
Adoption Fee: TBD
We have a welcome back for one of our pups - Tucker. He was adopted a little over 6 months ago. Unfortunately, his adopter was not able to meet his needs, so fortunately, he came back to us. He is a classic mini Aussie who needs *DAILY* exercise *AND* training/mental stimulation or he will run you ragged. He's also a classic example of a young Aussie (or mini Aussie) who has not had their socialization skills with other dogs kept up and quickly went sour. It's evident that he developed some reactive behaviors he didn't have originally and, in general, just needs to learn cues for proper play behavior and boundaries. Thankfully, we have a foster home who is willing to meet him where he is and immediately got to work helping him be better. We've already seen significant improvement in just a week's time, but the importance of *proper* socialization cannot be understated. We look forward to helping him get back on the right track and find his for real forever home. He still has the same happy go lucky friendly attitude with all people, so we're glad that didn't change!
Adoption applications for this pet will not be accepted at this time. All incoming Aussies are evaluated for a minimum 3 weeks to allow to them time to decompress and receive any necessary medical care. Applications will be accepted only when the pet's full and complete bio is posted here/facebook. If interested in this pet, please look for updates on our facebook page or bookmark this page in your browser. Thank you!
