Appeal from PINS – Podencos In Need Scotland.
‘Fostering! Always a tricky subject. We have many regular Fosterers who do a wonderful job over and over again, and we’re very aware that some of these dogs (or all of them) will take a little bit of their foster parent’s heart away with them when they move to their forever home. Some people find it so upsetting that they don’t feel they can do it again, or they have to take a long break to get over the heartbreak. But we ask you all to try and detach a bit of your brain from the trauma of them leaving and use it to congratulate yourself on a job well done and a life saved.
Fosterers are an absolute essential part of the journey for many dogs, and without you, they may languish in a shelter for years.
