Our Services

What We Do

The rescue sector has changed massively since the Coronavirus pandemic, creating a huge impact on dogs, and their owners, whether it’s through the lack of socialisation from the many lockdowns, or behavioural issues, including separation anxiety, from having become used to owners working from home. We recognised that more tailored support and help was needed to ensure we can find dogs the correct and best forever home and we launched our fostering model in November 2022. We work with trained and experienced fosterers to look after, and rehabilitate, its rescue dogs in their home until they are ready for rehoming, through using dedicated experts and behaviourists.

Find out more about fostering with St Francis on our dedicated Fostering page.

Fostering

Our Fostering Scheme

Housing dogs in foster homes offers so many advantages over kennels.  It provides them with regular companionship which is an essential part of rehabilitation.

"Hello world, my name is Blaze and I'm looking for my new forever home! 🐾💕"Say hi to Blaze, a 5 year old Jack Russel Terrier, who has had a fairly sheltered start to life and is now looking for his special someone, who can offer him a lap to sit on, and who he can continue to explore the rest of the world with.He is a sweet, but nervous boy, due to having very little socialisation, and needs a guiding hand to help him bloom in confidence.Blaze is shy towards new people, but is friendly and warms up to them fairly quickly. He is a curious little soul, who loves to be involved in whatever you're doing and will follow you around.He is looking for:- A quiet home, with patience and understanding, to help him grow in confidence- A home with older children (10+) -A home with no cats or small animalsBlaze is curious of, and interacts well with other dogs on walks, but would like to be the only dog in the home. (He thinks that laps and sofas are not meant for sharing!)He loves his walks, and loves a game of ball!Blaze can cope for short periods of time by himself, but does not like to be left alone too long. If you think Blaze would make the perfect little companion, please get in touch via our rehoming form:stfrancisnewquay.org.uk/adopt-a-dog-form/ ... See MoreSee Less
