Well this post is bittersweet as today is my last day with this little nugget, Braveheart, aka Kernel aka Mayor Pancake Paws aka Small Man aka BMOC. He goes to his forever home tomorrow. It’s been an honor and a pleasure to be his foster mama for the last few months. He was rescued by @apurposefulrescue from a shelter in Palmdale and when they got him he was COVERED in mange, skinny as a rail and so scared that he had his tail between his legs at all times. Now he’s covered in fur, has almost doubled his weight and has found his confidence. I never really knew the depths of how great fostering was until him. He has forever changed me as a person. When it comes to fostering a lot of people think “I can’t do it, it will be too hard to let them go.” And while there are OFTEN foster fails and it IS hard to let them go, the reward of knowing you saved a life far outweighs the pains of having to let them go. So many dogs just sit in shelters with little to know chance of getting out. If you’ve ever considered fostering I cannot recommend it enough and rescues are ALWAYS looking for people to foster. Some of my favorites in LA are
@apurposefulrescue @maedayrescue @deityanimalrescue @istandwithmypack and @animalhopeandwellness. Please consider opening your hearts to help one of these amazing beings. #adoptdontshop
