I am a young professional that works from home giving me the opportunity to spend time with my dog. We love playing in the backyard, taking walks around our neighborhood, visiting the dog park, learning new tricks, hiking in the summer, and skiing in the winter. Every couple of months I work with the Animal Refuge League and foster dogs that need short term homes. These loving animals care vary in age from young pups to older dogs. They usually are coming from rough backgrounds requiring a variety of skills and routines for each one. Being consistent and supportive helps these dogs become less anxious from their travel and gain simple training; readying them to be adopted into their forever homes. I will never be fostering another dog while caring for your family member.
