I don't think I could give her up after all of this. I have been wanting to do fostering, but I'd want to keep them.

Its very hard thing to do. We failed fostering Chewie but failed in a good way!!! DH wanted to keep him so we did!!! I do look at it this way tho.......if you help the baby find their way home you have impacted their lives so much and helped them find their way. You will be able to help so many more dogs that need help. Its truly an amazing thing!

It IS hard to think of giving her up. But doing something like this is somthing Ive always wanted to do. Even when I was about 10 I wanted to train seeing eye dogs in 4-H but my mom wouldnt let me.

she thought I didnt have it in me to do the training, OR give them up. Now I want to save lives of the dogs, and improve lives of people who don't know how amazing boxers are until they are owned by one!

Here is a little slideshow of Toffees pics.

She is a beauty!! My Bella is a rescue. She gained 10 lbs once I got her. And my husband and I are convinced, after each of of her meals, she comes up and stares at you as if the say "Thank you!". She is so very lovable. She has been having these sneezing fits though. I have never seen anything like it. She'll sneeze like 20 times in a row??

I thank you for caring for Toffee. I still two years later reach out and thank the foster Mom that took care of Bella until I could get her. Foster caring for an animal in need is something to be so proud of.

I love happy endings!! Toffee sounds like she really has come a long way and can look forward to a great Fur-ever home..I do think the rescues are something special..I've always felt that they are especially willing to please and have so much love to give once they find that perfect match..It's hard to deny that
