Frequently Asked Questions

How will I know about incoming dogs or those that need help?

Once you are a foster, you will be added to a Facebook page for WRT fosters. All foster needs and transport pleas will go out on that page first before it hits the main social pages and Google group.

Can I foster to adopt?

Yes and we have certain requirements. You may not get to adopt specific fosters based on that particular dogs' needs, temperament, etc. Our coordinators will work with you to find the best foster-to-adopt option for the dog and you.​

How do I prepare for a foster?

It helps to know weimaraners. However, taking on a rescue coming from unknown background is different. Some are untrained in the basics and others frightened and unsure. Some will source guard, and some will be extra clingy and even guard their new humans, soil the house, and even remodel their kennels.

Create an atmosphere that shows them safety from humans and animals. The new blog helps you with tips and tricks from trainers, fosters, and previous adopters. Heed their advice and you and your new furry friend will do great!

Can I help with Transportation?

Yes! See post about transporting rescues.
