This book is inspired by a blog I wrote while my husband and I were fostering a mother dog and her litter of seven puppies. At the time they came into our home, the pups were merely three weeks old. By the time the final two left, our two week temporary foster had turned into three months. We didn't really know what we were getting into when we started, which resulted in many lessons learned - both good and bad. But we also had a lot of fun. I hope this book helps inspire people to foster animals, but with their eyes open and their butts covered!
