Fostering animals isn’t easy. Suddenly, you’re living with a strange dog that needs your help. And once you’ve finally bonded, it’s time to say goodbye. But hard things are worth doing, especially when they change lives.
Follow along to see rescue dog Pepper and her foster family navigate the foster process, the feelings that come with it, and how one leash makes all the difference.
MY REVIEW
Taking a dog into your home. Nurturing it. Giving comfort and love. And then letting go is a selfless act. And one of bravery. Those who have dogs know how much they give us. The love they demonstrate when greeting us joyously when we come in the door. Comforting us when we are sad or feeling poorly. They truly are man’s best friend.
Foster’s Leash is a sweet, poignant tale of one young girl’s act of compassion for a dog, Pepper, who needs a home. The illustrations are lovely and the story a gentle one. It’s also an educational experience for those who are considering fostering. Bonding with a foster pet is inevitable, yet, the letting go, knowing the dog will have a home, is a reward in itself. A lesson of love.
