Hi and welcome from me and my two

OOh - I'd love to know more abotu your fostering experiences: what kinds of dogs you've fostered, for how long, what kinds of issues they've had (if they've had issues), how you've helped them work on their training. I ahve fostered four dogs all together - kept one. I just got a picture and note today about one of my ex-fosters and their new home. It is so rewarding to see a homeless pup settled.

I've fostered 16 dogs now. Most probably stay for about 6 months but I've had a couple go really quick. George is my longest stay - he'll have been with me a year in a couple of weeks.

I've had dogs with lots of different issues ranging from a dog that was thrown from a car on a motorway so was really nervy to an ex working lurcher that had been retired at 2 and would rip the house to bits and was constantly barking at us - he'd been retired very early and needed a lot of stimulation.

Most have been dog reactive so have needed working on that but some have needed different methods to others. I can write a very long post but would probably bore you with all the details!

It is great though seeing a dog change and be ready for a new home. I'm always upset when they go but happy at the same time as they are all great dogs.
