Please read and acknowledge the statements of agreement and understanding.
The foster individual(s) acknowledge(s) the purposes and aims of the Rescue Program and recognizes the reasonable interest in assuring the proper and humane treatment of the Great Pyrenees rescue dog during temporary placement with the foster home. The foster individual(s) represent(s) that no member of the family has been charged with cruelty to animals and agree(s) to accept the following conditions and restrictions in order to be eligible to provide a foster home for a Great Pyrenees rescue dog.
The foster home will keep the Great Pyrenees rescue dog indoors. It will not be tied to a doghouse or to a chain, nor left unsupervised in a yard where the dog can dig or climb out.
The foster home will provide the Great Pyrenees rescue dog with a fenced yard and/or will walk the dog on a leash daily. At no time will any Great Pyrenees rescue dog be allowed to run loose while unattended.
The foster individual(s), when away from home for over a 24 hour period, will advise the rescue chair, so that alternative arrangements can be made for the Great Pyrenees rescue dog.
The foster home acknowledges that their residence, if rented, permits pets pursuant to the lease, or by special permission of the landlord or resident manager.
The Great Pyrenees rescue dog will never be attack- or guard-trained or used as a property guard dog. Further, this dog will not be used in any aspect of dog/animal fighting.
The foster family will provide the Great Pyrenees rescue dog with all the care and attention necessary to ensure its health and well being. This will include providing sufficient food, water, exercise, and competent veterinary care to include transportation to and from a veterinary clinic, annual vaccinations, deworming, prompt veterinary care in the event of illness or injury and heartworm/flea and tick preventative. The foster home will give the rescue chair receipts for all medical expenses and will maintain the medical expense log for any rescue dogs in their care in order to be reimbursed for said expenses. NSGPR reimburses all medical expenses; however, all such expenses (except for emergency situations) must be approved in advance by the Rescue Chair or their designee. This is our biggest expense, and we have established a rescue discount with local veterinary clinics. If possible we would ask that any vetting take place at these clinics, however, we recognize that is not always possible due to time and distance. The foster individual(s) will notify the rescue chair immediately of the Great Pyrenees rescue dog's death and/or serious illness.
The Great Pyrenees rescue dog will not be abused in any manner. The Great Pyrenees rescue dog will not be beaten or otherwise treated cruelly, and will not be the subject of, or subjected to any biological, chemical, psychological, or other experiment.
In the event the Great Pyrenees rescue dog is lost or stolen, the foster individual (s) will contact the rescue chair immediately and make all reasonable attempts to locate the animal.
The foster individual(s) shall not give, lease, or otherwise transfer custody of the Great Pyrenees rescue dog to any other person, or to any business or organization, except to return the dog to the Rescue Program.
The foster individual(s) will promptly notify the rescue chair of all and any changes in residence, mailing address, and/or telephone number.
The foster individual(s) must notify the rescue chair within 12 hours of
any bite
by the Great Pyrenees from NSGPR inflicted on a human or another animal.
The foster individual(s) recognize(s) the need to ensure that the Great Pyrenees rescue dog is receiving proper and humane care, and agrees to allow inspection of the foster home and the conditions in which the Great Pyrenees rescue dog is living, at any reasonable time by a representative of the Rescue Program.
The foster individual(s) agree(s) to immediately surrender custody of the Great Pyrenees rescue dog to a rescue representative upon demand. The foster individual(s) agree(s) that the foster individual(s) has/have no legal ownership and will not obtain any legal rights to the Great Pyrenees rescue dog in their care unless they formally adopt their foster dog.
The foster individual(s) recognize(s) that although the Rescue Program has made reasonable efforts to provide a Great Pyrenees rescue dog which is compatible with the foster individual's environment, the foster home agrees that the Rescue Program does not warrant the temperament or behavior of the Great Pyrenees rescue dog and that the Rescue Program is not to be held liable for any acts of the Great Pyrenees rescue dog while living with the foster individual(s). The foster family agrees to notify the rescue chair immediately if they believe the temperament or behavior of the Great Pyrenees rescue dog is incompatible with the foster home environment.
The foster individual(s) state(s) that they have reasonable knowledge about the proper care of dogs and more specifically, Great Pyrenees. The foster home agrees to be responsible for the proper supervision of the rescue dog in their possession. Should the Rescue Program suffer any damages or legal costs as a result of the negligent supervision of the rescue dog in the foster home's care, the foster individual(s) agree(s) to indemnify the Rescue Program for all such damages and costs.
The foster individual(s) acknowledge(s) that the purpose of the Rescue Program in establishing the conditions in this agreement is to safeguard the health and well-being of the Great Pyrenees rescue dog, to protect the Great Pyrenees rescue dog against neglect, abuse and cruelty and to temporarily house a Great Pyrenees rescue dog until a permanent home is found. The foster individual(s) enter(s) into this Agreement freely and with knowledge.
In consideration of the Rescue program, I/we agree to assume full responsibility for the conduct of the Great Pyrenees rescue dog during their foster care stay with me/us. I/we further agree to hold harmless NorthStar Great Pyrenees Rescue of MN, our Great Pyrenees Rescue representative, and any other individuals associated with the Rescue Program and to indemnify such organizations or individuals for any damages or costs resulting from liability, known or unknown, anticipated or unanticipated, as a result of the rescue dog's conduct during their foster care stay with me/us.
As a NSGPR evaluator and foster care provider, I agree to and understand the following: I will represent and support the Rescue Program in a professional manner in all interactions with the public. I have read and acknowledge the statements of agreement and understanding.
