You are a saint!! I'm keeping everything crossed that it did work out for that foster since the shelter only gave them until tomorrow to get the dog out.
A lot of good has come out of this thread.
Oh, and Starla... this may sound like a very weird comment to make (please don't take this wrong), but in a way I am glad that you were disturbed and upset by the pictures of the faces of the pups slated to be put down. It all starts with first realizing that these are
real life dogs with
real life personalities whose lives will be snubbed. There's a big difference between just knowing that something is going on, and truly being faced with the pictures and stories. There's an 'awakening' that happens. Next thing you know, you start asking yourself how you can help and in what capacity, big or small. I would be more concerned if you weren't upset by it all.
