Foster Application

We are always in need of foster homes! If you would be willing to foster a Weim until he/she goes to their forever home, please fill out the Foster form. Our foster homes must go through the same approval process as adoptive families: vet check, phone interview, & home visit. If you have not been contacted by one of our volunteers within 7-10 days, please email contactus@weimrescue.com

Weimaraner Rescue of the South is a strong advocate of responsible pet ownership, which includes and is not limited to:

Consistent history of preventative care, including monthly heartworm prevention and annual wellness exams, vaccinations, heartworm tests.
All current pets are spayed or neutered.
WRS does not place dogs into homes without a structurally fenced yard. No exceptions. We do not consider "invisible fences" to be a suitable substitution.

Any person/persons applying to adopt who does not meet the responsible pet ownership requirements set forth by Weimaraner Rescue of the South will have their application for fostering denied.

All foster homes must reside within our coverage area. You must be 21 or older to apply.
