Contract Terms:
I understand and agree.
Foster dogs are considered property of The Love Pit. My Foster dog may not be given away to another person, shelter or rescue organization or passed on to friends/family members. If unable to continue the program as a Foster, The Love Pit must be given at least a two week notice to make appropriate arrangements if at all possible. I understand that if I do not give at least a two week notice, I may be responsible for boarding fees incurred. Medical decisions and expenses must be approved by The Love Pit and provided by designated veterinarians. After hour emergencies may be taken to the emergency vet without approval, if unable to locate a member of The Love Pit. If taken to a clinic without prior approval, except in an emergency, medical expenses may not be compensated for my foster animal. Reimbursement of vet expenses will require copies of bills. I understand as Foster volunteer, I will not normally be reimbursed for expenses such as food, toys, treats, etc. If I go out of town, I will give us as much notice as possible so The Love Pit can find a temporary Foster volunteer and avoid incurring boarding costs. The Love Pit will not typically be responsible for medical or other expenses incurred by the volunteer's own pet while fostering for The Love Pit. Dogs may be indoor/outdoor during the day but kept inside at night. The Love Pit has permission to make home inspections, with a 24-hour notice. If the situation warrants, the animal may be removed immediately. I, as a Foster Volunteer, agree to bring the animal to adoption events as much as possible. I agree to pick him/her up after the event unless other arrangements have been made in advance. I understand that bringing the foster pet to events increases the chances for adoption. All adoptions require a pre-adoption application, interview, home check (by Bully Buddy Volunteer or The Love Pit representative), adoption contract, and adoption donation in advance of the animal exchange. All adoptions must be approved by appropriate The Love Pit representatives. If I find a potential adopter, be it a friend, family member or colleague from work, the same adoption process holds true.
