I have not been convicted of any charges of cruelty, abuse or neglect to animals and am not engaged in any commercial breeding or sale of dogs. I give permission to Mr. Bones & Co. to verify all information and check references. I also understand that if I am approved to foster, I must agree to the terms outlined in Mr. Bones & Co.'s foster contract. I understand that although Mr. Bones & Co. takes reasonable care to screen animals for foster care placement and will provide 100% full disclosure about any dog I elect to foster, they make no guarantees relating to the animal's health, behavior or actions. I understand that I receive foster care animals at my own risk and can decline to accept any animal for which Mr. Bones & Co. has asked me to provide care. I acknowledge that Mr. Bones & Co. is not responsible for any property damage or personal injury suffered by me, members of my household, including my own animals, or any third parties during a foster placement, and I assume liability to provide adequate controls to prevent such damage or injury.
