I think you made the right decision Fostering is a life enriching experience but I always have to consider my own pack too. There is always a heavy feeling of guilt that comes on the few occassions I have had to say no to bringing another dog in. I totally understand how you feel We learn, we move on and we keep fostering That's a great attitude to have Sounds like Z is going on to an idea foster home. Best of luck with the other guys you take in through the project. Take good care. Seoniad.

I think you made the right decision too and I don't think you should feel like you've let anybody down. I bet the Freedom Project people have told you that too.

Sarah - you have done and will continue to do a brilliant job for these dogs in need. Please don't beat yourself up about one incident where there was a clash. We have clashes in my house on a daily basis (Roxy and Lennon), so it's not unusual, even with "regular" dogs.
Big hugs - I'm sure Brian will be fine with your TLC xxx

can anyone tell me what the freedom project is?

cheers

krusewalker, freedom project is a project run by dogs trust that fosters dogs for the owners who are victims of domestic violence.

hope that helps

Sarah - As Vicki has rightly said you're doing a wonderful job fostering these dogs in need. Our two had a fight only this week (not had one for years) it can happen over the silliest of things. As you say if they have to be left then it's best Z goes to another home and you can think about carrying on with whatever the Freedom Trust want you to have, if only people would be more honest but I guess they are in a relationship where it's hard to think rationally.
