Crystal's Clefts: Dog Rescue is an all-volunteer, non-profit, animal welfare organization dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of animals. Crystal's Clefts is completely funded through fundraising efforts and public donations. All of our pets are cared for by foster homes and receive complete medical care, which includes worming, vaccinations, and microchipping prior to their adoption. Thank you for your interest in fostering one of our special needs animals! Please fill out this form as accurately as possible. If a question does not apply to you (example: not having a work phone number) please respond with "N/A". Please note that we will contact you whether your are chosen or not for fostering. If you end up getting chosen, please know that we REQUIRE a home check to make sure the environment is safe for all our rescue animals. Please allow us a minimum of 1 week to review all applications and get back to you. All fostering parties are required to complete this form prior to fostering one of our rescues. Crystal's Clefts: Dog Rescue reserves the right to deny any foster request based on answers to this questionnaire and / or interviews prior to fostering. Thank you!
