FOD

Founded in 1982, FOD is a non-profit association based in Oslo, Norway working on animal welfare.

FOD, the Foreningen for omplassering av dyr, is an Oslo-based animal welfare association that finds new homes for dogs and cats. The association runs a farm in Oslo, Norway, where animals await adoption, and works with a network of foster homes and volunteers. Its rehoming process uses reward-based training methods and screens adopters through interviews and matching. Founded in 1982, the association reports rehoming around 400 cats and 150 dogs each year. It is funded mainly by membership fees and private donations and receives no state funding. Members have voting rights at the annual general meeting.
