     Persons who have been pre-approved and inspected will foster animals for HHRF in their own home until a new permanent adoptive home can be found. While being cared for they are trained and socialized and by fostering an animal you help create room for another animal in need to come to HHRF. You get the enjoyment of that animals companionship and love. Its a win win situation. Expenses incurred while maintaining a foster animal ARE tax deductible. That includes vet bills, farrier bills, deworming, hay, grain, & board fees. But not your time.
animals in foster care are still available for adoptive homes, (except those with special needs determined to be permanent fosters)
 
  • Pat Kass (2/08) fostering horse "Sierra", a paint mare with major leg damage, a permanent foster along with a PBP named Oscar2  
  • Mosley family (10/07) fostering pony "Annie" permanent  foster NOT avail. for adoption. Cervical Vertebral Stenotic Myelopathy. Also known as Wobblers. Diagnosed at Ohio State.
