My foster boy

[sundial]

This is Luke, a sweet, gentle boy who joined our pack recently. He's such a sweetheart.

What a sweet face he has! I admire people who open their hearts/homes to animals who need to be fostered. I don't think I could ever relinquish them once I had them in my home (and therefore would become the neighborhood's crazy dog lady! )

Exactly.

And I have a neighbor I love, who pretty much does that. She does exotic cat and miniature Italian greyhound rescue/fosters. As a result, she has 10 cats and (I lost count recently) 5 or 6 miniature greyhounds. Plus chickens, roosters, a few quail, a few ducks, a couple of rabbits, and she did have two rats for a while (Timmy and Jimmy) because she found one with deformities and felt sorry for it, so found it a friend and built them a dollhouse. I love her. And I would be her if I fostered.

Luke looks like a doll.

Luke is gorgeous, and I'm glad he's found you to foster him. Best wishes to you both in finding him a wonderful forever home soon!

What a little sweetie! I'd be just like Salsa's neighbor if I fostered...can you say "border collie ranch"??

Thanks everyone. He's pretty special to me. He was ridden hard and put up wet as the saying goes. I think he spent his puppyhood in too small cage or pen and had to stand on wire judging by his dysplastic paws. He gets around well though.

When I feel up to it, I'll take him out to the park and let him explore the trail.

Me too! Except "boston terrier bungalow"... I'm already planning to be a foster mom if I'm widowed one day. It would drive DH crazy (he loves BTs, but one at a time), but I can't think of anything I'd rather do once I'm old and not traveling around so much. Don't have kids, so I'd have to have furkids.
