APAH in Pilar used to board any dog that was adopted from them, but they no longer have their own premises so have to pay boarding fees for all their dogs. It's unlikely that they'd be prepared to pay the boarding fees for adopted dogs in future. As far as fostering goes, it is generally hoped that the foster carer will eventually adopt the dog unless it is a special case (such as a mum with very young babies, an old dog or one who just can't cope with being in kennels). However fostering does NOT commit you to adopting. I have no idea what SATS's policy is; you will just have to contact them when the time is right for you. Animal Aid are a charitable group who don't have their own place so all their animals are fostered in individual homes. There's so many poor dogs (and cats) absolutely desperate for homes I'm sure you'll find something to suit - just don't rush into anything.
