    Many s for you Courtney, this makes me sad too I love seeing little Dax he is quite the little man. You are such an :angel5: to foster all the needy Doxies and finding them loving homes. Here's a few happy to get you through this adoption. Look forward to seeing your future furkids. :hearts:
    They may be small, but you should see their hearts. Shelter/Rescue dogs aren't broken. They've simply experienced more life than other dogs. If they were human we would call them wise. They would be the ones with tales to tell and stories to write. The ones dealt a bad hand who responded with courage. Do not pity a shelter/rescue dog. Adopt one. And be proud to have their greatness on your side. Anon

    Courtney, I have more respect for you than you will ever know! You are a true :angel6: and have made such a huge difference in the lives of so many animals!

    I think that you let them all into your heart, but every once in a while one breaks through and fills your soul too. :gphug1: I just :pray: that one day you can fail fostering, because there won't be so many little ones waiting to be saved.

    Good Luck little Dax, we will all miss you too!! :hearts: :heartbt: :hearts:

    I'm sad for you! I really respect what you do- I could never do it myself becaues I would have a house full of wiener dogs.

    I feel for you Courtney.... At least you know that he will be taken care of properly I'm sure he will never forget you and what you have done for him I'm sorry your taking this one hard, but he will be forever grateful for the :angel7: that saved him.

    Gee, Courtney, I was beginning to think you were superhuman! I would have been in tears for each and every one of your gorgeous fosters when they left. But 10 dogs helped already?! That's something to be proud of--and more who so desparately need you. Hopefully those new little faces will allow you to smile through the tears when Dax goes to his forever home. He is such a special little man and I'm sure I'm not alone in saying I'll really miss seeing pictures of him.

    awww Courtney, I'm so sorry! I can imagine how painful this is for you. Dax is a little sweetheart. You are such an awesome foster mom. Sending .

    Po, you take care of your mama when Dax leaves, okay? She will need extra love and kisses!

    I am so proud of what you do! I don't think I can foster, because I would probably be so sad everytime when they get adopted.

    I'm so happy for Dax but I know it has to be hard for you. I fell in love with him by seeing pictures alone. I can't imagine what it's like to have the little man with me day and night. You've done a great job, you should be proud of yourself.

    Default Dear sweet Courtney

    I know I can not begin to say I know how you feel. But I think I speak for us all when I say our hearts break a little each time also. Don't forget we all fall in love with your fosters (via your excellent posting on their antics) and unfortunately none of the new familys join and take the time to keep us all updated on them.

    I think because Dax is a special needs pup, and he really did need you and your love soooo sooooo much, that is why this one is a tiny bit harder on you. We all want to be needed and who needs us more than our dogs.

    I love what you do for our breed, and I know Dax will always have you foremost in his little heart.

    Would you mind making it a requirement of adoption that they join this board and keep us all updated!!! Just kidding

    I have told just about every adopter about the boards but none have really made it in. I do get updates from time to time and will always be sure to post them!
