the longest i had one particular dog was 4 months. generally they are adopted within a few weeks. there have been dogs that have medical issues that take longer to get adopted and many of the foster homes end up adopting at least one of their fosters at some time.
we had been fostering for 3 years before adopting (we already had 4 of our own) but last year 2 pups came into our home that we just fell in love with and could not let go. so now we have an even 1/2 dozen. |
