Sophie the foster mommy

We foster for a local rescue group so our girls are very used to having litters of puppies in the house. Soph is so good with the babies and she just loves them. This litter we have had since they were just a few days old, so we have bottle fed them and raised them from the start. They are now just shy of 6 weeks old and I am pretty sure they think Soph is their mommy. The three of them follow her around everywhere she goes and she looks out for them. She loves being the "mommy" to all the foster babies that come through our house. Here are a few pictures of the little cuties and their pseudo mommy :)

We think they are hound/lab mixes of some sort.

Taking care of three puppies is exhausting ;)

Sophie, what a great start you are giving these puppies. They are loving being loved on by you and I can tell you enjoy it too!

Please tell your mommy she is doing a great job too. I can only imagine how exhausting it must be. Thank you for your work in making sure they are well loved and taken care of before they go to their forever home:)

This is my favorite discussion in weeks....maybe months. Maybe years. Thank you, Sophie, for taking such good care of your puppies, and thank your mom for us, too.
