So I'm finally going to get a foster (hubby still not keen about it, but not divorcing me yet either...lol) I will find out more this week when she will be here. I am a bit nervous, would have been anyway but she is blind also so it's adding to my nerves. Have done a lot of reading and hoping the adjustment will be easy as it is for so many. Otis is so good with other dogs that I'm also hoping he will adjust well too. I'll keep you all posted, wish me luck!

Congratulations Lynn!!! I would so LOVE to foster, but right now I have way too much on my plate :( I had a diabetic cat that was also blind towards the end, and honestly after an adjustment period he seemed fine... I'm sure that everything will work out great. Good Luck & keep us posted!!! ;)

Yay, I'm happy for you that you are finally getting another baby. I think Otis will help the new dog adjust. Post pics asap!

Well congrats and bless you for taking in a special needs bully. Once she gets settled in, she will give you more love than you could imagine.

being a foster mom is great!!! Thank you for stepping up. There are so many rescues and so, so many bulliles and not enough space to put them that the rescues are in desperate need of foster homes. I love being a foster mom

Wonderful news Lynn. I bet Otis helps your new baby out! Hubby will come around...you know how those bullies suck us in. I'd love to foster, but Mr. Dudley believes he should be an ONLY child!
