I thought giving them up would be a problem for me also, as you do get attached. But, I look at it this way - as much as I may love a foster dog, until that dog moves on to their new forever home, I can not help another. And, that is why I'm fostering is to help as many rescue yorkies find new forever homes.
One thing I would caution you about getting dogs from shelters is illness. Definitely quarantine any new shelter dog you bring in to your home. You never know what they been vaccinated for or IF they have at all. Also, some illnesses can take several days for symptoms to show up from the time of exposure, so even if a dog appears healthy at first, still quarantine!
