FOSTERING FOR LILO'S PROMISE

Why Foster for lilo's promise?

Lilo's Promise prefers to have as many of its dogs in foster care as possible. Foster homes give our dogs a much better life, and a much better chance of success once they're adopted. They have time to socialize, interact with people, and in many cases, live with cats and other dogs. A kennel can be a stressful environment for even the best dog, so getting out pit bulls into a home is always our first choice. That's where you come in!

What it means to foster.

FOSTERING A DOG SAVES TWO LIVES, the dog you foster and the dog you have made room for in the shelter. Lilo’s Promise Animal Rescue needs special volunteers to provide a safe, loving, temporary home and care for an LPAR dog until it is adopted. Being a foster parent is fun and rewarding! As an added bonus, you get the return of love and companionship from the foster dog you have welcomed into your home. You can be proud that as a foster parent you have saved a life.

Lilo's Promise Foster program is one of a kind.

Lilo's Promise provides all food, basic supplies, veterinary care and guidance. All dogs are screened for health and temperament before entering our program. In addition to covering all costs, all LPAR dogs are enrolled in obedience classes. As a foster parent you may participate in class or we will make arrangements to have LPAR’s dog taken to classes for you. Be assured that you will never be alone. LPAR is always available to our foster parents. Should the need arise, we have a trainer who is available to address any behavioral or training issues. We do everything possible to make sure out dogs find their forever homes as quickly as possible, so we can help the next dog!
