    It's actually really good to have a dog of your own when you foster because they can teach puppies and traumatized dogs how to be a loved dog, in ways that we humans can't. ❤️❤️❤️

    As a volunteer rescue and foster worker, I will admit that puppies are the cutest and most fun. But it is a ton of work!
    Adults and seniors need time to because they’re usually traumatized from their neglect, but puppies need to be disciplined from the gate because we need them to go on to their foster homes knowing a few basic rules!
    Three is actually the limit to a litter that will not make you insane. More than three and you’re going to need recuperation after those two months!

      I once took in a pregnant mama who was about to pop, so that she would not go to the shelter. She had 11 puppies.
      Never in my life had I dealt with so much poop. But I'd do it all over again in a minute.

    • @amiapsychopat
      @amiapsychopat ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I wonder, doesn't the lack of a real mother lead to problems with behavior or socialization?
      Or is it enough for them to grow up with their siblings and meet adult dogs later?

    • @IntriguedLioness
      @IntriguedLioness ปีที่แล้ว

      @@amiapsychopat Fosters do not separate a mother from the puppies / kittens before 6 or 8 weeks depending on the breed.
      I have seen mothers absolutely exhausted by that time and once the puppies find their forever homes the mothers are so relaxed and actually learn how "to be a dog again".
      I would not be part of a system that purposely separated the mother from offspring but at that point they have had their shots, they have bonded and played, they will be spayed and neutered and they are ready.
      I think of it in dog's years... except that six weeks is more akin to the age of twenty when it comes to humans who just don't want to leave the nest! LOL
