O.M.G. You can just feel the love pouring out from this video. This senior dog doesn't want to leave his little sister's side. There's no doubt in our minds that he made sure she felt comfortable in her new home.
@2kalm4khaos commented, "They're family now you can't separate them." Don't worry, they didn't! This foster dog has now become a foster fail, which means they fully adopted her. She's been with them for over a year now!
Fostering an animal is a great way to help shelters and give you a glimpse into what it might be like to own a pet. Animal shelters are especially in need of foster families since many around the country are at full or over capacity. But be prepared because fostering isn't always a walk in the park.
There are things to consider before becoming a foster parent. Many shelter dogs are not housebroken so expect to clean up accidents and be patient with potty training. You should also prepare for a change in behavior. Dogs might be shy at the shelter, but once in a loving home, they'll have energy. Fostering a pet is a commitment as you might be responsible for bringing them to meet and greets. Plus, there is an unknown timeline of when they'll get adopted so you could be looking after your pet for months. Above all, get ready to be attached or fall in love with your foster pet.
