7th November Day 1:

Bullseye has started to pick up and is eating well he has settled into our routine. Fostering dogs is a difficult thing. Although we try to give them a pleasant life we cannot give them what they would get in their own home and we have to live with that tension. A year ago dogs were only staying with us for weeks or 3 months at the most but re-homing has slowed down so much many are here for 6 months and some more, so we have to re-think how we keep them and give them a better quality of life which all takes time and effort.

Foster homes are better than kennels and provide an opportunity to assess the dogs, but they are not as good as a proper home. All our dogs deserve to be a number one lying in front of the fire or stretched out on the settee surrounded by their own family.

These dogs need homes.
