Animal Welfare Professionals

We began an adjunct program to our existing Foster Care program in 2017 - we call it our Medical Recovery Foster (MRF) program. We send out pets with orthopedic surgeries, heartworm treatment, etc, with the understanding that the interested party becomes a foster parent for that pet until they are medically cleared for adoption. This way, will the pet is being treated, they also have the support of our Foster Care and veterinary teams. The foster parent abides by all Foster Care policies and has on-call support until the pet is officially adopted.
We have these MRF pets available for the public to browse and then make them a foster parent. We often place these pets in foster homes before treatment - it helps us with the bottle neck we see with pets whose treatment takes weeks/months.
