You all know that we adopted Harper last summer. We used a rescue called PetConnect that is located in Potomac, MD, not far from us.
Harper joined our sweet 9 year old schnauzer, Lucky.
And they soon became best buds!
We are ready to pay back the kindness and are now officially fosters for PetConnect! Our first foster pups arrive this Saturday from Puerto Rico! We pick them up on Saturday from the airport. They are 10 week old lab/hound mixes and were found in the streets of Puerto Rico. We were sent this pic of the pair (so sweet!) I’ll take them to the vet and they will get healthy and happy! We will be their home until they find their “furever” homes!
Four dogs in one home! Yes, we are crazy!!! You can find more about PetConnect HERE and their Facebook Page is HERE!
that is so wonderful!!!! way to go!
Thanks, Cassie! I know you also have a full house with three pups of your own! Plus the kids…we are crazy!
How wonderful for you to be a foster parent and your new guy is just adorable!
Thank you, Nancy! He is a riot and very mischievous!
What a blessing awaits these precious pups! We were (failed) fosters and had 6 at one time. I say failed because we couldn’t part with them! Two have passed after a happy life, but we still have 4 and that is the norm for us. Lots of work but wouldn’t have it any other way! Looking to new posts on your fur babies! They are so cute.
Hi Diane! That is so funny! Love it – failed fosters! My husband is totally failing at this and wants to keep them but we are trying very hard to love them but understand that they are not ours. It is SO hard! I bet your pups are so sweet! Cheers!
I love your kind and open heart! Blessings to you and your family!
Thank you, Judy!
Good for you! wonderful!!!!!! your heart is as big as all outdoors!!!! what lucky furbabies…you are awesome!!!!
Thanks, Sue!
Good luck to you all, it’s a sweet and kind thing your family is doing,hope all go’s well and you have fun with your little charges.
Thank you so much!
Awesome!!!
They are so adorable! Such a wonderful, caring thing you and your family are doing!
Thanks, Annie!
I applaud you! especially given the antics Lucky has been up to!! And I’m not trying to be negative towards Pet Connect, but why are they bringing dogs in from out of the country when there are so many dogs here that need good homes. My county shelter in west virginia is full of nice dogs that deserve a home like yours. Sign me: Puzzled!
Hi Beckie, it is a good question. I learned that there are many volunteers in Puerto Rico that go around and rescue the street dogs. They then contact organizations like PetConnect for help and they provide it. PetConnect also rescues many dogs from inside the continental US – mostly from the South. Our pup, Harper was from S. Carolina. They basically help wherever they can to save whichever dogs they can! There are so many kind and caring people in the world and it is great to see!
You’re a blessing. These dogs are the bes dogs ever. Next time we adopt it will definitely be one of the street dogs from Puerto Rico. They seem so grateful when anyone gives them love. God Bless You
Hi Mariea, Thank you so much! They are such gentle and sweet pups! I cannot describe how cuddly and fun they are. They will make the perfect addition to a family. I highly recommend adopting from an organization such as PetConnect. They really care and make sure the dogs are healthy before adopting them out.
Thank you so much for being a foster family. IT WILL DEFINITELY SAVE LIVES. I absolutely love all animals and my husband and I have 4 dogs and they are all rescues.
Thanks, Debbie! It is a lot of fun (and work) but we are all enjoying them!
What a wonderful thing to do. It will be a crazy house but fun. And it will be hard to not get attached.
It is SO hard to not get attached! My husband texted me yesterday that he wants to keep them both! Not happening!
What cutie pies! Good luck with the fostering. Kudos to you and your family!
Thanks, Sue! It is going well so far except Lucky isn’t too pleased. He is slowly coming around to the new arrivals lol!
You are a dear person!!What an adorable pup! our next pup will be a rescue, we have seen from others that the rescue pups are so grateful and loving. Happy mother’s day!
Hi Terrie, Yes, they are the most loving animals and really bond to their owners. We are enjoying our “girls” for the time we have them!
