PUG RESCUE OF NORTHERN CALIFORNIA RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REFUSE ANY APPLICATION.
Furthermore, by submitting this application you are attesting to have read and are able and willing to follow our Foster Guidelines as listed below:
1. Foster parents agree to give loving care to the rescued pug(s) and provide a safe, indoor environment. Pugs shall be kept in the house at all times with the exception of being taken outside to go to the bathroom. At no time shall the dog(s) be tied to any object outside, nor shall they be kept in any outdoor kennel.
2 Foster parents agree to only take foster pugs to authorized veterinarians, except in cases of extreme emergency. Pug Rescue of Northern California will pay for all medical care by such veterinarians.
3 The foster parent understands that it may be necessary to drive the dog to the veterinarian, to meet with prospective adoptive families and other places, and is willing to do so.
4 Foster parent agrees to feed the pug(s) premium dog food, and agrees to feed, water and exercise the dog appropriately. This includes no unsupervised, off-lead time.
5 Foster parent understands that often a pug comes into rescue needing medication. Pug Rescue of Northern California will pay for all medications necessary for the dog(s). The foster parent agrees to administer the medication(s) to the dog in accordance with the veterinarian instructions.
6 A rescue pug often comes in on short notice with no indication of health or temperament. Foster homes have to be willing to help assess this and be willing to update the Pug Rescue of Northern California Coordinator on a weekly basis. Pug Rescue of Northern California cannot guarantee foster pugs will be potty trained on arrival.
