I'm getting my first foster doggie!!

Our first foster dog is coming today!! She's a lovely little brindle lurcher. We picked her up from death row just over week ago and in the half hour it took to take her to rescue I'd fallen in love with her!! She's very thin, but very pretty!! I can't afford to have another dog of my own (I have 5 already!!) so this is the perfect option. her vets bills etc are taken care of but I get to have my 6th doggie!!
I'm not sure how long we're going to have her for as someone is sort of looking for a dog that fits her description but I know it's going to be hard to part with her!!
I'll post some pics when I get her!

I've said it before, but it's worth repeating - I have the utmost repect for anyone who fosters, I thought I'd be able to do it, but just couldn't face giving him away.

Oh Zoe you are a star for saving this doggie. I think someone ought to take bets as to whether you keep her. A fiver says you will

That's fantastic! Fostering is such a rewarding experience, I myself fostered awhile ago before developing allergies to certain breeds. Can't wait to see pictures!
