Foster Application Form
Please complete the form below and hit submit.  The details that you provide will help us to match you with the foster dog best suited to your home and circumstances.  

Before you complete the form ....

You must be over 23 years of age to foster for Miniature Schnauzer Rescue Ireland.

It is necessary for the head of your household to agree to allow a dog be fostered in your home.  If you are not this person please discuss your interest with the head of the household and be sure that they are in agreement.

Fostering can sometimes be hard work but is always hugely rewarding.  Without a network of fosterers Miniature Schnauzer Rescue Ireland could not rescue and rehome any dogs.

A foster dog may come from a situation where they have spent their life isolated in a back garden or they may have spent time in a pound or puppy farm.  Generally speaking all of these  foster dogs will have been let down badly by human beings.  We passionately believe that these dogs deserve a second chance. Our fosterers provide the love, care and training that these dogs need. We will provide you with training and full back up and support.

As part of the foster application process a Miniature Schnauzer Rescue Ireland representative may phone you to discuss the details that you provide on this form.  Please give us as much information as possible so that we can match you with a foster dog that is best suited to you home. All new potential foster homes will be home checked before placement of a dog. Foster dogs MUST be kept in your home and treated as a member of the family. If you are going away on holidays you must inform us so we can agree on care for your foster dog while you are absent.

The foster dog must attend one of our approved veterinary hospitals (Ark Vets in Dun Laoghaire or Botanic Vets in Glasnevin, Dublin). We will arrange any grooming and training needs for your foster dog.
