Teddy is good with dogs and cats, but he doesn't like to be left alone. Then she extended his stay with her.
Because she learned so much about Teddy he was adopted into the perfect home, for him. He is with an older couple and their cat.

Temporary fostering seems like a good idea. Animals end up at shelters and know one really knows them. You just can't learn much about an animal in a cage at a shelter. It is only when a dog is in a home that you can judge how they respond to home life. It certainly worked for Teddy.]]> She gave Teddy a fun filled weekend and she learned a lot about him.

This is such a life saving thing. I remember when dogs died because there was no way to help when a dog needed blood.
Now they know how to test for blood groups. They can have donor clinics and blood drives just like they do with people.
The dogs don't seem to mind. I wonder if they know they are helping. Dogs like to help.
