Kelly shared a wonderful resource in this thread! You can also find evidence on this topic in this resource by Human Animal Support Services in the "Foster Programming" and "Impact of Kennel Housing/Kennel Stress" sections. This article from the collection is highly relevant: Evaluation of a Novel Dog Adoption Program in Two US Communities (Mohan-Gibbons et al., 2014).

Subject: foster impact on adoption rate
I am looking for studies or stats that compare the adoption rate between fostered and non-fostered dogs. Have you seen the Dodo Foster Diaries? Any thoughts? Tx
