How are foster dogs promoted?
Photos and stories of all adoptable dogs in foster homes are posted on Petfinder.com and at the shelter where the public can view them. Foster dogs are also promoted at special events throughout the year. Foster parents may participate in various shelter programs and events to increase the visibility of their foster dog to potential adopters. Foster parents can also help promote their foster dog to their family, friends, colleagues and the general public through a variety of means including flyers, emails and even just by walking your foster dog in local neighborhoods with an “I’m available” bandana around its neck.
