  • 1.  Looking for a standardized behavioral evaluation form for foster parents

    Posted 08-25-2026 08:03 AM

    Does anyone out there have a form they use for their foster homes to evaluate new dogs placed in their homes? I've seen some that are geared more toward the pet welfare professional and I'm looking for more of a "layman's" version of the form. I feel this might  be an area where I don't need to re-create the wheel.

    Thank you!

    Hey,

    I have a few questionnaires that we send out to foster parents for various reasons like a fearful/shy dog q, separation/isolation distress q and our regular personality profile form. You can email me at aruutsaar@mdspca.org if you would like !

    Hi Anna!

    We have a questionnaire that we use for when foster dogs return from their foster home. We use it most often for our short-term PAWjama Party sleepover program. The form is saved in the dog's profile and shared with any potential adopters or future fosters.

    I hope this is helpful!
