Finder to Foster to Adoption CalAnimals webinar

In the right situations, stray animals found by community members can be quickly and legally moved from stray to foster status, and then adopted out, without ever entering local shelters. While shelter personnel involvement is integral to this process, the burdens on shelters, and the stressors to the animals, can be reduced to a minimum. There has been some confusion about the right (legal) way to run such a program, as well as how to do it with the greatest chance of success for animals, in a short time frame, and with minimal impact on the shelter staff and community. This webinar will lay out best practices for “Foster-Finder” programs, that will benefit all involved.

Presenters: Bruce Wagman, Attorney, and Cindi Delany, DVM
