Ruger the Foster Puppy with NOLA Lab Rescue

Ruger has officially been with me one month and he is about to embark on his next adventure.  I got the news a little over a week ago that a family that is already approved to adopt through us would be a great fit for Ruger and Ruger a good fit for them.  After talking with another person in the rescue and a transport up north being arranged it has been decided that Ruger will be leaving us on Labor Day weekend.

I have been emailing the potential foster mom all week and got to meet the whole family via Skype last night.  The three kids were so cute fighting over the front seat at the computer to see Ruger up close.  When I told them that he likes to fetch they got so excited and told me they wanted to throw the ball for him.  All in all I completely approve of his potential new home and am excited to see how it goes when they meet him in a week or so.

Fostering with NOLA has definitely been an experience to cherish.  Micheal and I are so happy that our first time being fosters has gone so seamless with this great rescue.  We jumped both feet first with only a few days notice and every experience has been great.  We will be fostering another dog but will wait til the right one to foster comes around.  After all these dogs keep a permanent place in your heart.

I would definitely recommend fostering if you have space and experience with dogs.  Truly an experience I will keep forever in my heart.
