HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN A FOSTER PARENT? I'VE BEEN FOSTERING FOR A LITTLE OVER 2 YEARS.

WHY DO YOU FOSTER? I STARTED FOSTERING AFTER THE LOSS OF ONE OF MY DOGS. WHILE I COULDN'T SAVE HER, I COULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF OTHER DOGS. 

WHATS BEEN YOUR BIGGEST CHALLENGE? THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE HAS BEEN SAYING GOODBYE TO A LONG TERM MEDICAL FOSTER. YOU LOVE THEM LIKE YOUR OWN, BUT KNOW THEY WILL ONE DAY GO TO THEIR FOREVER HOME. ITS SO WORTH IT, WHEN YOU SEE PICTURES OF THEM WITH THEIR NEW FAMILY.

WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE SOMEONE CONSIDERING FOSTERING? THIS HAS BEEN MY VIEW ON FOSTERING. ITS LIKE GETTING A NEW DOG, MINUS THE VET BILLS. YOU LOVE, AND PLAY WITH THEM. THEY GO TO A FOREVER HOME, AND WHEN YOU ARE READY, YOU GET A NEW DOG.
