After we experienced our first volunteering with NCBR with transporting two dogs from the shelter to the vet we thought we could do more. Soon after that I received an email from the rescue group saying they had more dogs and were in urgent need of foster homes. I emailed back and threw our name in the ring. There was a bit of background checking with the vet of our current dogs to make sure they were up to date on vaccinations, and we also had to have someone come over to do a home visit to ensure we were a safe home. The home visit was scheduled on a Sunday afternoon and that following Monday we had our foster dog. Her name is Bindi and she was already in a foster home, but that family had to leave town and needed to make other arrangements. The nice thing was they already knew a little about her and figured she would be a good dog for us to start out with. She is a white female boxer about 4 years old and she still has her natural tail. We have had her for about 5 days now and she is a wonderful dog, she gets along with the rest of the animals and is just plain sweet. Anyone who adopted this girl would be luck to have such a great dog, we really look forward to her finding a forever home.
