A foster dog story

Nitro was my last foster dog, He arrived in January almost 4 years ago and I came very close to adopting him myself as he fit in so well with my own dogs and the cats, especially with Tipper and they were the best of buddies, Though letting him go was heartbreaking, his new owner and I became friends and we ended up sharing not only happiness but sorrow as well, and I know Nitro could not have found a better owner then Jo-Anne and I could not have been happy to later help Jo-Anne in finding Nitro's sister later.

Nitro as a foster in my home with his close buddy Tipper



Nitro ready to go work with Jo-Anne as a St Johns ambulance THerapy dog he had passed his test within 4 months of coming off the track


Nitro's brother and sister Mariah and Matt




Nitro's story made it into Celebrating Dogs Magazine a couple of years ago a copy of the story is online here.

Glad you had a part in Nitro's short life. His story was very touching.
