My wife and I have fostered many dogs over the past 3 years. Right now, we own 4 dogs (adopting Maddy, our most recent foster), and therefore can't legally have any more adult dogs in our house. I thought I'd share a few pictures of our past foster dogs.
Here's Jackie:

We now own a similar little girl with the same name...primarily because we kept accidentally calling her "Jackie" as well.
This is Daisy:

We found out how smart and diva-ish that Dachshunds can be, both from her and from Lizzie:

I've decided that I want to keep a Dachshund someday. I just think they're cool.
This little man is named "Mushy" for some reason:

He was nuts. I'm surprised I get keep him still enough for a clear picture.
Last but not least, our favorite foster ever, Maggie:

She had been abused before we got her. She was terrified at first, hiding under the bed for hours at a time. Eventually she learned to trust people again, and she developed a new habit...jumping onto the couch after dinner and demanding I play with her RIGHT NOW. She used to cower in fear of men, and now she was demanding my attention. It was a pretty cool transformation to behold.
Do you have any great pics or stories of your foster animals? Share them here at We Love Animals!

The dogs sure are cute. You and the Dachshund "Lizzie" look like you made a pretty good team. I guess that most of your foster dogs have found good homes to go to with nice families to love them. Maybe, when I retire you can find a good (not too big) poodle for me. I don't want to deal with all of the shedding.
Keep up all the wonderful work that you do with the dogs, especially all four of my "granddogs".
