Rat Terrier Rescue Canada - Application To Become A Foster Home
Fostering is an enriching and extremely rewarding experience. It also can be a trying, tiring, and messy experience. Our Rat Terriers and Rattie crosses often come from puppy mill busts and euthanasia lists from shelters. Sometimes they come from families who cannot longer care for them.  As long as you are experienced with the  rat terrier family of dogs and have a big heart and desire to give a homeless dog a second chance at life,  we can find a foster to fit your household.  

RTRC pays for all approved medical expenses for your foster dog, and provides Heartworm preventative. Your foster dog is also provided with a microchip and RTRC tag.

You are required to provide food, toys, and of course love and cuddling!
Please feel  free to tell us as much about yourself as you can as it will help us both decide if fostering a Rat Terrier is right for you and your family, and help all of us save more dogs!

Please note all sections must be completed.  Incomplete applications may not be processed.  As we are all volunteers it may take up to two weeks to hear back from us.
