Meet my first foster Toby!! He is a doll :-)

[Tonya Hopkins]

I wanted to introduce my first foster Toby! What a incredible journey we are having......He is going to be a wonderful guy!! He is settling in nicely. I read so many touching stories of fostering so I took the leap and I am so glad I did. Just thinking about letting him go gets me very emotional already.

Thank you!! Trial and error --- hahaha The transformation right in front of my eyes... I have never felt so much joy

[Jane, Guinness and Murphy]

Toby seems to have adjusted so quickly....what a great job you're doing with him!

[Tonya Hopkins]

He decided his crate is a cool place to hang out with treats and toys :-) woohoo

[Tonya Hopkins]

They are all adjusting well. I could not have ask for anything better!! This has been such a joyful journey... They all just follow each other around! Actually it really helped Toby learning from my dogs that behave most of the time :-)

Toby is a sweetie! How are your two doing with having another dog in the house? Hopefully that is going well. I think you will find that seeing Toby with the new family that you select will be a wonderful reward for your fostering efforts. Just keep remember that you are just his temporary home ...... a stop on the way to where he is going and you will be fine. Many thanks and welcome to the wonderful world of fostering!

What a cutie! I am sure he will find a new loving forever home in no time

What a handsome guy!!!

Toby is adorable, I`m sure he will have a forever family in no time. I would love to have another doodle but sadly our location does not lend itself to getting a rescue. Thank you for taking him into your home and your hearts. I`m sure letting him go will be really hard but knowing he is going to a good home should make it a little easier.

OMG he loves his Skunk!!!!! hahaha I had to go buy 2 more for my other two because he didn't want to share ;-) Have Skunk will travel

To see him coming out of his shell and enjoy life makes it worth it.....Again I wouldnt have done it without reading posts by the DK members of the pour joy and making a difference so thank you all for giving me the inspiration to get involved :-)
