Chico I dont think George is in the same location and I think he is already safe!

Your right Beauty is safe and in foster care. She will need to be assessed before anything happens. The reason being is that GSRT normally pulls these dogs out really fast and they do a more extensive assessment once they are settled a bit! She will go up for adoption.

A great friend of mine has Greta who is up for adoption. SHe is a perfect example of why assessments need to be done. She was turned in because the person had heath issues and couldnt handle her. I have seen her in action and she CAN be a handful at times. But she was assessed after coming into care and she does have some dominance issues they have worked on but she will have to go to a certain person that can handle her! These dogs are all different.

Chico George is at QHS in Belleville I met him and and a shepherd cross looking for foster care both lovely dogs I am sure the female will get adopted by quinte she is young, healthy and full of kisses and love, I don't think George would be good as a companion for a trucker he could never get in the truck and was fearfull of even a horn beeping he would do best in a one level home, no stairs and not many walks and that is what GSRT is working on now, as Winston said all of the dogs are acessed in foster care and matched with the perfect home, the adopters know every quirk and how to deal with it....that is the beauty of foster homes...no surprises

Ya George would not do well here then. SO glad they are both getting more time... and hopefully soon furrever homes too!

Actually hubby really has his heart set on a lab or lab cross for the truck, he has the bunk bed/ kitchenette set up in his truck, a big volvo, so lots of room to move around and stand up etc for people... so plenty of room for a larger dog. We probably aren't going to look until the fall or spring. About the same time we might be looking for a larger house too! (that way I can foster kitties again!)

I think all the dogs in shelters should have people working as hard for them as the doggy people in here do. That is fantastic news!!

Toonces,Winston,I think fostercare is an wonderful thing and the fosterparents equally wonderful.
A shelter-environment must be stressful for any animal,difficult to judge their personalities.
I sooo wish I could foster and help out:sad:
Before this Forum,I had no idea,there are as many people out there,who help pups and kitties in socializing and prepare for a new home

Neither me, Chico, it's a hidden army.
I'd love to foster a dog or two one day but at the moment...

George is still waiting for a foster but he has won the shelter staff over such a good boy and Quinte has a very good rep. He is a very good boy but somewhat timid of things.



krdahmer they do have a very nice black lab there I saw when I met George
