Foster Homes

Guildford & District Staffordshire Bull Terrier Rescue relies on foster homes provided by our friends and volunteers. What is meant by a Foster home is someone who can look after a G&DSBT dog until a permanent home becomes available.

We would look for the same requirements as in a permanent home and a home check would be needed before the dog was taken in.

For logistical reasons foster homes would normally need to be within a 5 mile radius of Godalming where our vet is based. We prefer to use foster homes rather than kennels as SBT’s in particular do not kennel well preferring to be in a home environment.

We are always looking for new friends and volunteers that can provide a temporary home and encourage you get in touch with us if you think you can help.

Foster homes should be able to provide:

• Warm, comfortable living conditions
• Adequate daily exercise
• Offer a stable, loving environment
• Conditions to keep separate from fosterers own pets
• Dog not to be left alone for more than 4 hours
• Have access to transport the dog when needed

Guildford & District Staffordshire Bull Terrier Rescue pay for all food, vet bills or other reasonably incurred necessary costs during fostering.

If you think you can help please contact us.
