32. Some things to consider before fostering:
    • We ask that you do NOT take our foster dogs to a dog park. Compared to a personal pet, we know very little about how our foster dogs might behave in a highly stimulating environment like a dog park.
34. • Please give us as much advance notice as possible if you need to return your foster dog earlier than expected. The shelter is a busy place and we want to ensure we are able to accommodate the return.
36. • Even though the dog is going from a high stress environment (shelter) to a lower stress one (your home), keep in mind this is still a big change for the foster dog. He/she may need extra time to decompress and adjust to the new surroundings. You should be able to provide a quiet place the foster dog can retreat to by themselves if they feel the need (a covered/comfy crate off to the side or in a separate room often does the trick).
