Ya know VV, when things get dark in rescue (and I know you understand the depression with ill ones, the burn out, etc.) I go out and lay on the grass with my fosters and let them about have their way with me. The energy and love they give is hard to put into words. Many think I am nuts to do rescue, but it is the most rewarding thing I have done in my life. It's always wonderful to have the playful happy go lucky personalities in foster care. The day I can no longer rescue is the day they will shovel dirt over me.
oh boy do I!...I thought I was the only one to roll in the grass with all my babies...nice to know there's someone else that feels the same..
I wouldn't trade the rescue/fostering for anything in the world..it has been the most rewarding thing I've done besides raise my kids..
To see an abused and frightened dog come to you and get healthy and trusting again and get the sparkle back in their eyes, to me,
is priceless! to get them a loving forever home is worth it all!!
