IMPORTANT - PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU READ CAREFULLY

As much as we hate "small print", it is necessary to ensure that you are fully aware of your responsibilities when accepting a foster beagle and we would ask that you read the following statement carefully.

Beagle Rescue does its best to assess a beagle before it is accepted as a foster but please remember that we have no knowledge concerning the background or previous environment of the beagle (if obtained from a shelter) and have only the word of the previous guardian/s concerning the background or previous environment of the beagle (if from a private home). While Beagle Rescue is very happy to support you while you foster any beagle/s, both financially and with advice (if needed), we do need to stress that once a carer decides to accept a foster beagle, then they do so at their own risk.

I/We realise the commitment that I am/we are making to any foster beagle I am/we are entrusted with and pledge to care for him/her as if he/she were my/our own. I/We understand that I/we once I/we decide to accept a foster beagle that I/we do so at our own risk.
