442 Notes from a trainer: on fostering
UnpublishedAlysse Kinane Butler trainer
Hello Donna, I was hoping to discuss fostering... I have been fostering dogs in the Pacific Northwest for 10 years, all types of breeds. I found my first Boston trough the local county, and she was a mess.... Very fearful. She had to be "caught" by animal control with a rabies pole. She had to be kept in a kennel in a kennel at the shelter because she can jump a 6 foot fence. She is my only dog I have foster where I believe she was truly put into a position where she had to fight for her life. I have had Rook for 3.5 years... She is the best! With counter conditioning, free shaping and tons of love she has become a super star in doggy sports. She plays Flyball, agility and this weekend will try out dock diving. She even holds a "Top Dog in Breed" with the best Flyball time in UFLI!
What I am getting at, is I would love to help other BT's find forever homes. Rook has changed my life for the better and I would love to help other like her.
Please keep me in mind when dogs are in need. Thank you for your

Sure! I think I may have a few grammatical errors... Silly smart phone
I am not with a BT rescue. I don't believe there is one...
