Definitely agree with all the other posts. It is sad but happy at the same time. It would be lovey to hear some updates. Pulls at the heartstrings. You made it possible, sending you a big and so nice to hear she was happy to go

just wanted to say i agree with everyone else and say very well done
A caring person cannot help but love their foster dogs and I admire you immensely for having the courage to do it ...again..and again .... xxx
I think you have done a wonderful job and you should be so proud of yourself!
That gorgeous girl will have a happy forever home now and I hope her new owners keep you updated on her progress.
I must admit I would be useless at this fostering, it would break my heart to let them go so I admire you all.
Just echoing what every one else has said. Its very hard to let go but you have given her a secure future in which not only she but also her litter will thrive and have what every dog deserves. Oh and I would be the same too., I was a bit of a mess when my first litter went.

Never forgetting Carly and Abbie
Thanks one and all for your support!!
I know she will have a loving home and be able to complete her growing up in good company.
We heard a little while ago that she slept most of the way home, has explored the house, ignored the cat and has tried her crate for size and comfort and had a good tea!
We all feel so much better just getting that update and will enjoy the pups we have here.
The Rescue
I am just the bridge between,
what was and what can be.
I am here, to help you find,
a new start, your own family.
I saw you thin and tired and cold,
weak and scared, and ill.
I wrapped you tightly in my arms,
to guard against the chill.
I took you home and saw,
that you were just so small.
How could anyone not love you,
nor have any care at all?
I nursed you through some long nights,
to recover from your ordeal.
You were so tiny and so frail,
I just willed your soul to heal.
With time you grew, and
learnt to be, the dog I knew you could.
No longer just a bag of bones,
you knew fun, just as you should.
You played with toys you’d
never had, and across the fields you sped.
You then loved lying in my arms,
where I’d slowly stroke your head.
You’d learnt to live, and then,
I knew it was that time.
I had to say goodbye my pup,
for you were just not mine.
I found a fantastic family, who,
would adore you, like I did.
They promised that you’d be forever loved,
and into their hearts you slid.
My job is done, you have new life,
a home for ever more.
My tears run down, but no regrets,
for another is at my door.
I am just the bridge between,
what was and what can be.
Without rescue, what for these dogs,
whose lives will never be free?
xx I wrote this poem when Linnet who I fostered through Lizzies Barn went to her new home. Good luck Trudy and all her pups in their new forever homes.
Marianne, I have some tears also, but they are happy ones as Trudy has had such a lovely start being with you and will now be able to begin life in her new forever home for you and your family.
