A lot has happened in the last year healthwise for me. I am so much better now. And for about the last 6 months my granddaughter and I have been fostering dogs. Our first fosters were three puppies. They were dropped at the shelter when they were around 4-6 weeks old. We fostered for around 4 weeks. They were beautiful. My granddaughter named them Lock, Shock and Barrel. They were shepherd mix and so, so cute. But fostering puppies is really messy. They have all found homes now.
The second one and she came while we still had the puppies, was Mrs Baird. She was an older pit mix, around 8 and had been overbred. She was in such bad shape when we got her. She was in excellent shape when she went back to the shelter and was not there for long before she was adopted. She was so sweet and just wanted attention and belly rubs.
Now we have Bubba. Bubba is a 7-8 month old mix breed. When the animal control officer picked him up, he had dermadox mange caused by a prolonged flea infestation. His skin was in such bad shape and he had no hair on his body at all. He has been with us for going on 2 months and is almost ready for adoption. My dogs have been very accepting of all these fosters. They were overwhelmed with the puppies, but still played with them.
