Default Nervous, good thoughts please

Hello!
I am a newbie here, and I am trying to be a foster for a GSD rescue in Houston. Well, I just got done with my home visit, so now I have to sit and wait to find out if I am approved and I am super nervous, so I am asking for good vibes because I really want to help out through fostering.

Handle every stressful situation like a dog. If you can't eat it or play with it, pee on it and walk away.

Wishing you peace while you wait and luck to NOT be a foster failure!!
Thank you for stepping up, it is one of the most important parts of rescue...without fosters, it makes pulling/rehabbing so much more difficult!

Best wishes and good thoughts. You are doing a great thing. The fact that you are worried proves you will do the right thing! You CARE.

Good luck.

We've had our foster for 1 month and it's been great. You'll truly enjoy it. My wife reminds me every day not to be a "foster failure".

You'll probably be approved. Good foster homes are like gold.
