When llamas come into the SELR system, many times they need to stay at a Foster home until an appropriate Adoption home is found or transportation is arranged for them to another Foster home. This may be a short as over-night to days, weeks and possibly months.

Please consider being a foster home or even a foster center! (And to be honest with you, lots of foster homes become permanent adoption homes!)
