Freedom Project.....Dog Foster Carers

 The Dogs Trust Freedom Project is a specialist dog fostering service for people fleeing domestic abuse. Many refuges aren’t able to accept pets, so people may feel unable to leave their home until they know there is somewhere safe for their pet too. Dogs Trust offers a solution by providing free and confidential foster care for an average of 6-9 months, enabling people to access refuge or emergency accommodation safe in the knowledge their dog will be loved and cared for.

 The Freedom Project is urgently looking for more foster carers to welcome a dog into their homes and also in turn help a family get to safety. Fostering is a fantastic way to have the joy of a dog in your life if you’re otherwise unable to have a permanent dog of your own. Fostering is free, all equipment is provided, and you’ll be fully supported by the experienced and friendly Freedom Project team throughout the dog’s time with you.

Our team are on-hand to have an initial chat if you're interested in becoming a fosterer.....
