With adoptions slowing and our kennels filling up, we’re looking for loving temporary homes for our dogs and puppies during the holiday period. This ensures they experience the warmth of a loving home while we close for a short break.

Holiday Foster Dates:
Monday 23rd Dec – Friday 27th Dec (4 nights minimum)
Saturday 28th Dec – Thursday 2nd Jan (5 nights minimum)

This is a special chance to make a big difference in a dog’s life! While fostering is a positive and rewarding experience, placements depend on your home being suitable and the availability of dogs or puppies matching your situation.

How to Get Involved:
1. Read our Dog Foster Care Manual (details on what’s involved).
2. Submit your Expression of Interest (note: suitability checks apply).
3. Watch our short Dog & Puppy Induction video.
4. Complete our quick post-induction quiz.

For those that are interested an in-person information session will be held at the Shelter tonight Tuesday 17th December from 5:30pm. Please RSVP to volunteers@rspca-act.org.au.

Questions? Email us at volunteers@rspca-act.org.au.

Please note that travelling outside of the ACT with foster animals will not be possible.
