Thank you for this terrific article! Much Love doesn’t have a facility, so we rely on foster parents to take care of our animals. We’re always looking for more fosters, and this article will certainly encourage more people to give it a try.

My photos turn out great! But that’s because for every good one, there are hundreds that aren’t good. Thank Dog for digital cameras!

So happy to come back and see that she was adopted and even has a new canine friend. 🙂

Great points! So happy that Layla found a home; thanks for fostering her!

I’m certainly thinking about all of this, now that we’ve brought in our first foster. I hope he will find the perfect family for him soon!

Nobody can better speak for the pup than the foster parents to be sure it’s a good fit. Thanks for this post!

I know it’s best for a family to get the pup who fits the family, and I know this may sound dumb, but I really feel sorry for the pup who’s being evaluated by a family. This particularly true for a shelter dog sitting in a cage. When someone comes up to the cage, the pup gets so excited because he thinks that someone is taking him.

I fostered motherless kittens, what a joy. It was hard when they left me but so happy they found forever homes. I also had cats at a Petsmart. My volunteers and myself always knew if the cat and people were right for each other. The rescue, that we worked with had all kind of rules that were stupid. We had cats stay with us longer then they would have if they would have allowed our thoughts to count.
I have been thinking of fostering a dog but I have 4 dogs and 4 cats. This past year several of my cats went to the Rainbow Bridge. I am not not ready to foster. My cats are not ready. Some day, when we are not grieving I hope to foster a dog. When the time is right.
