Back in June I introduced you to our Scottish Greyhound Sanctuary foster dog, Poppy. Well, Poppy was with us for 2 fun-filled months whilst she waited for her forever home, during which time she made lots of friends,
with border terrier pal, Fidra
played with lots of toys,
with her favourite pink ball
& gave us lots of cuddles!
with foster dad, Martin
We will miss you big time Pops, but seeing you walk out that door with your new family, all waggy-tailed & full of smiles, I just knew you were going to the right place: SGS have found the perfect home for you!

We managed to last a full 3 days with just the 2 dogs in the house after Poppy left, then along came our next foster dog, Kenny (formerly known as Kevin)!
new boy, Kenny
Kenny is a gorgeous brindle & white lad with a velvety smooth coat & a big thick cuddly neck. Despite his wise old face, he’s still a youngster really at 4 years.
isn’t he gorgeous?
He’s been with us for almost a week now & taken some time to settle into living in a house – everything is new to him.
Woah – what’s going on out there?!
He has adapted so quickly though & is already well on his way to becoming a chilled out sofa-hog just like the rest of them 
Max & Molly have been showing Kenny the ropes
Yesterday he rolled over on his back & had a wee roach for the first time,
learning to relax
& today he tentatively started to play with a ball for the first time!

Fostering can be pretty emotional. You inevitably become attached to these dogs & it can be hard to say goodbye when the time comes. But you know that they will always remember your kindness, & the space that they leave means you can help yet another dog on that special journey towards their forever home.
