Foster Application

Thank you for your interest in fostering for Big Dog Rescue Project. Fosters are the life blood of our organization and we cannot complete our mission without them. We primarily take dogs from high-kill shelters and send them to the Pacific Northwest and East Coast. We have need for fosters in Texas, Washington and New Jersey. Our greatest needs is the DFW Metroplex. BDRP provides medical care and you supply love and food. If food is needed, BDRP has sponsors that will provide as well. We have all ages and breeds. Our fosters guide the type of dogs our program takes. If you do not hear from us in 72 hours, please send us an email at BDRPinfo@gmail.com. Technology is amazing but sometimes things get lost in the cloud.
