So three weeks ago, I rescued a young Boxer off a busy street running in traffic, took him home, pulled all the ticks off of him, bathed him, fed him and gave him water. He was SUCH a sweetie! I sent him to the Montgomery County Friends Of The Shelter(MCFOTS) Rescue. They took him in with a foster, and two weeks later he found his forever home!! What a turn around!! I'm SO THRILLED!!! The best outcome I could have EVER asked for!! What a lucky boy!! I feel so accomplished!!

Randolph is what they named him. <3 I called him Cooper though when I had him!

I am just so freaking happy!! Seriously, this could have had the worst of outcomes, and he hit the lottery. I'm so happy for him. The foster and rescue work just makes me feel so amazing. I love what I do, even though my husband sometimes wishes I wouldn't keep bringing dogs home!

Man, you are awesome!! How many dogs is that so far this year alone?? Keep up the great work!! I honestly wish I could foster one more dog that I could find a home for. As much as I love Tessa and I know I have saved her, I want to know how it feels to help one find a forever home. Oh well, I will eventually. Until then I will live vicariously through people like you!!!

Yes, as a foster home, it is definitely rewarding to see the positive changes that happen in these babies and how willing they are to extend 2nd and 3rd chances to us humans. I fostered for a while some time ago but Max our GSD/Husky mix was not able to cope with various dogs coming and going. He came down with severe allergies because of the stress of that and I had unfortunately had to stop fostering so he could be well again. Again, awesome job and thank you so much for fostering.

Well there has been three since I started officially in Jan. It is beyond rewarding. If I have the ability to help, I don't see why I shouldn't. It's kinda like the other day I was waiting in line at Starbucks and I saw this disheveled looking woman(in the car behind me) with a child screaming in the backseat, it was 9ish in the morning and I picked up her bill when I paid for mine, just to brighten her day and do something nice. I try to give when I have the ability. You may not see the reward all the time, but the feeling inside is amazing.....

He looks like a baby dog. I am glad he found a forever home. Thanks for helping him.
