Foster Care for Dogs :)

Hi all,
Today I just wanted to write a short little thing about doing Dog Foster care. We started doing it just a short time ago maybe a month or two ago and we have just fallen in love with it. We have fostered 4 dogs so far and it has been fun. It feels great to be that family that saves them from being euthanized by taking them in and giving them a temporary home until someone wants to adopt them. Its been so neat to meet and play with the couple different dogs and look forward to doing it with many more. They may come to us scared of people because they were beaten, but by the time they leave us they know that people are there to love them and cuddle them and play! They trust in humans again and it just feels great! I just had to laugh at our most recent foster. When we got him he was scared to go up and down stairs or to jump up onto the couch or do anything that required going up. He would wine at the top of the stairs and you would have to grab him and bring him down, meanwhile he is clinging to you like he is going to die if dropped. But after playing with our two dogs and watching them go up and down about a bazillion times, he is no longer afraid of stairs! Haha. So if you have ever thought of fostering animals, I would suggest it. It is the best thing we have done and it just makes you feel soooo good inside!
