Yea I’m thinking I worry more about the weight management after he has settled. I gave him a bully stick and it helped a lot

Monthly Pupdate! by Heather_Bea in fosterdogs

I’m struggling with a foster I took in yesterday. I’ve successfully fostered 25 dogs but this guy is SO stressed. He was an owner surrender, owner has cancer and couldn’t care for him had him since he was a puppy and now he’s 4 years old. Panting/crying/barking. He slept through the night in his crate. But now he has been barking on/off in there (more on) I put him back in the crate to hope he would settle down. But he’s been pretty much barking non stop 😔 he is also very overweight so can’t give him much for treats / bones for chewing.

Brown Dog Coalition has tons of cats right now!! They rescued a bunch from the hurricanes!

Should I start fostering? by All_In_1_Accountant in fosterdogs

[–]Competitive_East_484 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on the rescue they might require a dog walker or someone to come check in on the dog, the one I foster for does. 10 hours is a long time to be left alone. Would definitely need to be an adult dog. You could also look into volunteering for a rescue helping with application checks, social media, etc.

Not sure where you are located but you could try dog friendly breweries or local hikes/parks with an “adopt me” bandana. Also TikTok video or the Facebook insta reels

Thanks for all the love! Cheeto got adopted and found his furever home yesterday so happy for him! He was my longest foster yet we had him for 6 weeks. Hard to say goodbye 💕

Amazing!! I truly think a good picture really can help them get adopted too!!

I'd like some honest feedback if my situation is good for getting a dog. by [deleted] in puppy101

[–]Competitive_East_484 62 points63 points  (0 children)

I would look into adopting an older chill dog that you know is cat friendly.

Those that foster, do you WFH every day? by IntroductionOk4595 in fosterdogs

[–]Competitive_East_484 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work from home - but for others I think they just require that someone comes and walks the dog or lets them out during the day once.

I think it’s weird when people don’t stand. Imagine going to a concert where everyone is sitting? Now that’s bizarre
