Why did you get into fostering?
I wanted to make a difference in something that is truly important
to me. I also wanted to give my children the experience with
helping and volunteering.
Which hart dogs have you fostered?
Genie and Hattie
What has been the most rewarding aspect to
fostering?
All aspects have been rewarding - but I guess it would be finding
the right forever home for the dog
When individuals think it will be too much work or too
emotionally taxing, what feedback do you have for
them?
Well it is work - but a satisfying work of love is the way I see
it - it doesn't take much to providing love and shelter to a dog in
need. It can be an emotional journey but when you see the dog
adopting the perfect forever family / home - it is so heartwarming
and gratifying.
If your foster dog(s) could speak, what do you think
they would say to you?
Genie…hmm…she knew she was in a safe home and neighborhood was so
kind and gave me lots of love. I love the kids and the my foster
brother and sister - oh and all the attention I got. But what I
loved the most - is that my foster parents took the time to truly
investigate my potential adoptive candidates and let me decide who
I what'd to adopt. Hattie - well I am really enjoying the kids and
my foster brother! I love being part of this family…I love flopping
on my foster family. I am trying so hard to get away with things
but my foster mom seems knows me too well…but I know this foster
family loves me so much.
