Update on Polly

Remember our foster puppy Polly?? Well last night I got a call from her new family.

She’s doing good!!! The family loves her and she’s growing like a weed.

The family lives in a two story home and already at eight weeks, Polly can navigate a whole stair case. She sleeps with their daughter and the family has been taking her on lots of outings.

So how are we doing?? We’re doing good. I would definitely foster a puppy again. In fact, I think I prefer puppy fostering. With puppies there are only here a short time. I get a puppy fix and can let them go. The puppies don’t have as sad of a story. With older dogs I start thinking of how they are going from home to home…I start thinking about how they are going to yet another home. I start thinking about the hard life they had before and I just want to keep them and make their life easier.

With puppies I think how I can start house training..I think about how I can start them on a lease, getting a bath and learning new things to make them the best family pet. I don’t think about keeping them nearly as much…especially after they start chewing something of mine. Did I mention Polly ate a phone charger??

Anyway…that’s the update on Polly. I hope I can foster a puppy again…and it was so nice that the family called to let me know she’s on her way to becoming a treasured part of their family.
