[quote=Anonymous]Wolf Trap has a little different program, and it works well for us. The foster period is always three weeks. It’s almost always young puppies (under 12 weeks). You know in advance the day you will get the puppy and the day you will transfer it to the new owner. Occasionally the puppies aren’t adopted and you can agree to foster for the next period, or you can say no. There is good support and a vet on their staff (the founder). Other rescues we’ve used are less organized and more uncertain - you may have the dog two days or two months. I also at this stage in life prefer young puppies because I have a toddler and I don’t want older dogs with unknown histories up at face level. Puppies though also mean more accidents. We keep them in a crate at night or have a large playpen area with hard floor. Good luck! It can be very rewarding. [/quote]
