First foster pup

Well I just couldn't help myself, lol.... I live in a very rural small town area. Our local county humane society, and another local rescue group are both small privately run orgs. Not even a physical shelter or anything, all the shelter animals have to live in foster homes, vet kennels, etc around the area. And they're both always struggling both financially and with trying to find enough foster homes for all the animals. Anyways.... they had put up that they REALLY needed a temp foster home for these 3 young boys (all brothers). Apparently 2 of them had foster homes lined up already and they needed one more. I couldn't say no to a wet nose in need..... I went down last night and picked him up. It's only gonna be for about 10 days, he needs to heal up from his neuter surgery and get his ride all set up then him and his brothers are headed up to Washington DC to their forever homes

He's pretty shy, and sometimes just plain scared, but he seems to warm up to you pretty quick once he's around you for a bit. Poor little guy was actually born IN the shelter, so he probably hasn't had much exposure to the outside world just yet. He's still kinda scared to walk through doors, up stairs, etc. But I think we're gonna have a fun time in our 10 days together

I already took him on the grand tour through Tractor Supply last night! haha














Got him home and he seemed to make himself right at home



Introduced him to all my kiddos (one at a time).... doesn't seem to be any issues, I'd say, lol. Looks like he's already got the nightly routine of my lazy bums down good. Piper was up on the couch with me pouting, lol



He even voluntarily went in the crate and laid down




It may change as he gets more relaxed, but so far for a young pup he seems very well mannered! I'm excited to see how this goes...... this will be my first time fostering, even though it's only for a short time
