I understand that fostering a horse is a very big responsibility. I am sure that I am ready for this responsibility and that I have the knowledge and experience to care for the fostered equine as if it were my own.
I understand that Fallen Oak Equine Rescue and Rehabilitation, Inc. (Fallen Oak) will perform a property inspection before any equines may be moved to said property. I also understand that Fallen has the right to request that changes be made to the property before fostering may take place.
I understand that Fallen Oak has the right to refuse any foster home applicant, even if the applicant has been previously approved. I also understand that there is no guarantee that I will be awarded approval for equine fostering.
I understand that Fallen Oak will remain the owners of the fostered horses until they have been placed into a permanent adoption home and that they can be removed from the foster property at anytime. I also understand that fostered equines must remain on the foster property at all times, for the safety of both the foster parent and the equine
