[Dailydrool] Looking for guidance

[Elizabeth A. Kolenich]

I'm an active foster home and tend to take in the younger ones, including
puppies.
Seniors always worried me because they can be grumpy and I have young
children.  We did take in a senior though named Ginger and she was oh so
sweet and just loved my kids!  When the puppies came though, she went to
another foster home that was more calm and suitable for her needs.
I do miss her dearly and would have loved to keep her here until she was
adopted or lived out her life.  I have a special place in my heart now for
seniors.  They are pretty easy too.  Most of them are couch potatoes and
just need a nice place to sleep, some food/water, belly rubs and they are
good to go!
If you don't mind your front door be a revolving door, younger is the way to
go.

Either way, no matter what age you foster, the rescue receiving your help
will appreciate it more than you could ever know!

Good luck!
