We are looking people to provide foster care for our dogs in a variety of different programs. We can use help from people who want to care for a dog during the day, provide care for a dog on evenings and weekends only, provide care in a household that includes children, and combinations of those things are great too! Must live fairly close to campus for easy transportation and complete a home visit and training programs. Dogs range in age from puppies all the way up to senior dogs. All food, vet care and equipment is provided by GDB.
