Overview of Foster Responsibilities

• General Pet Responsibilities - feed and provide water daily
• Daily Training - provide at least 2 short (5-10 minute) training sessions each day
• Weekly Class - service animals in training attend weekly one hour classes
• Weekly Training Record - fill out and turn in a short form summarizing training for the week
• Daily socialization - service animals in training should be exposed to as many new people and places as possible
