Become a Foster Home

Foster homes are the backbone of any rescue group and Dachshund Rescue of North America is no different. We must turn down dogs every day because we just don’t have the room.

A typical foster home would be one that is familiar with dachshunds and can lovingly accept one in their home for an average of 1-2 months. During the dachshund’s foster period, the foster home would stay in close contact with a DRNA representative, be willing to take the dog to the vet when necessary and work with the dachshund in areas he may need training. (House or obedience training for example) The foster home is instrumental in getting the dachshund ready for adoption. DRNA pays for all approved vetting cost and the foster home provides love, care and food.

If you are familiar with the breed and can open your home to a rescue dachshund, complete the foster home application and e-mail it to your local DRNA representative. Find your state representative by clicking on your state in the map below.
