Can you believe we had a 90lb foster in our 1-bedroom apartment?
Originally, I was just helping someone (who was supposed to foster her until we found Gigi a forever-home) but when the first potential-adopter couldn't keep Gigi they told me to drop her off at the shelter if I couldn't take her. I don't know why but it still amazes me when people just decide that an animal's life isn't worth a little inconvenience.
Lucky for Gigi, the adopter (who knew she couldn't keep such a large dog permanently) fostered Gigi for a few weeks while I made room for her at our place. We can only take-in fosters as we make room - which means we can only rescue when our current fosters get adopted.
She actually behaved better than most of our feline fosters that are a fraction of her size! And as you can see, she loves animals of all sizes. We just had to be careful that Gigi's enormous paws didn't hurt little Sven (the foster in the photo) or our cat Hermes, that Gigi loved to chase around.
What a well-behaved girl. I miss her!.. but I don't really miss walking her at 7:30 am in our freezing winter weather. Brrrrr
