Family Agreement *Must be signed for EACH Frosted Face
You have been approved as a forever foster (Family) under the terms of this signed Family Agreement of one of our rescued senior dogs (Frosted Faces) for Frosted Faces Foundation, Inc. (FFF). Thank you for welcoming a Frosted Face into your Family! This Family Agreement outlines the expectations and guidelines as a lifelong foster of an “unadopted” dog, that legally belongs to Frosted Faces Foundation. Although you are truly acting as the Frosted Face’s Family, we do not adopt out Frosted Faces so as to ensure the previously abandoned senior dog has unwavering support through FFF for the remainder of his/her life. Time Commitment As a Family of FFF you are agreeing to represent us in fulfilling the promise to give the Frosted Face a nurturing Family until he/she passes away. Only FFF Directors shall approve and place Frosted Faces in Families. A Director must be notified as soon as possible of any changes in the status of either the Frosted Face or the Family environment or location listed. This agreement ensures that you, and you alone will care for the dog. You will not give the Frosted Face to any other person, agency, shelter, or group. If the designated Family is not willing to care for the Frosted Face anymore, the Family must email written notice to [email protected] and have confirmed receipt from a Director. FFF must be given 4 weeks notice or the Family will be responsible for up to 31 days of boarding costs at $30.00 per day while we find the dog a new Family.

Food & Supplies FFF is happy to help provide supplies such as food (when available), crate, collar, leash, food bowls, toys and treats to the Frosted Face upon request. Food and supplies are available when donated, and require pick up in San Diego. Donation money is not sent to Families to purchase items. Families may also receive discounted or free services on boarding, grooming, and training. Please inquire about our current business relationships that benefit you and the Frosted Face in these areas. You are always more than welcome to pick up food from Headquarters, arrange a pick up if we are in your area, or take advantage of any of our business partnerships when it is convenient.

If you do not live near San Diego, please understand that our donations and donated services are less accessible. Please plan to provide/donate the cost of food to the Frosted Face. Everything you provide for the Frosted Face is considered a donation and tax-‐deductible. Please notify us at the end of each year to discuss details so that we may issue a complete donor receipt. Medical Care Agreement FFF agrees to provide medical care for each Frosted Face. In order for medical expenses to be entirely covered or reimbursed, all medical procedures and expenses must be approved in writing ahead of time by a Director of Frosted Faces Foundation at a partnering veterinary office. You can review our list of current veterinary partners at: www.frostedfacesfoundation.org/friends/ If you do not live near to a partnering veterinarian, understand that they are less accessible. Please plan on providing/donating the cost of veterinary care for the Frosted Face. Frosted Faces may be seen by non-‐partnered veterinarians. FFF covers 80% of diagnostics and procedures that are pre-‐approved in writing by an FFF Director at non-‐partnered veterinary offices. FFF does not cover the expense of exam fees. All veterinary care that you choose to donate must be pre-‐approved by a Director and records of those diagnostics and/or procedures must be provided to FFF upon request. You are always welcome to coordinate transport, with no cost to FFF, if the Frosted Face needs medical attention in accordance with the Medical Care Agreement. In the event of an emergency, FFF agrees to pay the entirety of medical expenses, less the exam fee, at a non-‐partnered veterinarian or emergency clinic with pre-‐approval of diagnostics and procedures in writing by a Director.
Directors can be reached at: Kelly’s Cell (715) 574-‐6320 Andy’s Cell (507) 301-‐8964 [email protected] FFF agrees to provide you with medication the Frosted Face may need. Ongoing medication is prescribed by a veterinarian and pre-‐approved by a Director for administration. Families are instructed where to fill the prescription and must email a picture of the receipt to [email protected] to be reimbursed within 24 hours of emailing the receipt. Upon a Frosted Face’s passing, Frosted Faces Foundation agrees to provide the Family with a memorial of ashes and a paw print. The ultimate decision to humanely euthanize a Frosted Face is that of FFF Directors and no one else. In all circumstances of death, a licensed veterinarian must contact a Director to verify the cause of death and identify the dog.

Care Expectations & Liability Waiver The Frosted Face must wear an identification tag and collar at all times. A Frosted Foundation Director must be notified immediately if the Frosted Face in your care is injured or missing. The Family agrees to treat the dog humanely at all times; to obtain medical care and vaccines as recommended; to NEVER tether the dog outside or allow it to run loose outside your premises, and to allow the dog to spend a reasonable portion of each day and every night inside the home with the Family. The Family must provide at least two clear and different pictures or videos of the Frosted Face each month to an FFF Director via Facebook, email, or text. If technology limits FFF’s ability to check on the Frosted Face with the
Family, as an alternative, the Frosted Face may be seen by a licensed veterinarian (in accordance with the Medical Agreement) or be subject to another home inspection by a volunteer who will take pictures. As a Family, FFF is trusting you to take care of, protect, and keep the Frosted Face safe, comfortable, and free of harm. This includes, but is not limited to, controlling the Frosted Face’s behavior and ensuring that he/she is not put in situations where he/she can harm himself/herself or other animals or persons. Any failure to comply with these terms, including, but not limited to, the Frosted Face sustaining injuries, or causing injury to persons, animals, or property, Family agrees to be responsible for and to hold harmless and indemnify Frosted Faces Foundation for said injuries or damages. FFF reserves the right to reclaim possession of the dog if the dog is not receiving proper care, if the Family is poorly executing our mission, or if the Family fails to comply with this Family Agreement.
