oh - no, I don't do fostering - with three dogs and where we live it wouldn't work. Even when we had two - for many years prior to this triplet set of dogs we had two dogs - one of whom is the Lab who's still here and the other is my very dear heart dog <very first Rottie girlie> at the Bridge who was dx'd w/kidney disease at age 2. She lived to be 8 and 1/2 with good life quality with the aid of several vets and me home-cooking for her - but her medical needs as well as the behavioral needs and very bad hips of my Lab <also dx'd when he was was 2> meant that we really focused on them for a long time and so even though I was involved with dogs I never did any fostering. I have assisted in home visit placement and handled dogs at rescue events.
I currently volunteer at a shelter in a behavioral mod. program and am a member of several Rottie org's, and a local Bully group-
I do lot of home-cooking for my dogs too - Lexi (White One) She is very picky eater. I don't like the idea of force her to eat her dog food. Knight - he loves food he'd eat ANYTHING you name it -even the pickle *yikes* and also the black olives.
Sweet - I volunteer at Second Chance Rescue, and Sioux Empire Pit Bull Rescue.
I also do the training for the pitbulls. I also foster (bully breed dogs) each dogs, often stay with me up to 3-4 weeks til they find a new home.
Makes me proud when those elder & senior citizen adopt pitbulls, and become their bestfriends.
I've always wanted to live on the farm house, and own some more pitbulls, at the point where im living & full-time student, and full-time employee, full-time mommy to my pitbull dogs. its tough.
