After we had our first Jack Russell pass away, our boys wanted to get another dog. Us adults just were not ready yet. We didn’t think anyone could fill our hearts after we lost our “Dink”. That is when we started fostering for Castle of Dreams. We figured that we could help save some lives along the way.
We fostered “John” from the time he arrived with his mom, “Princess” (now Piper), and his siblings, Anne and Clint in April 2012. John (now Sly) is our 13th foster. From the time our youngest son chose him out of the batch of arrivals, he fit into our crazy home like no other! We all fell in love! He joined our family officially on our older son’s birthday. We named him Sly. He has been such a joy and love. He gets along so well with everyone in the family. He now has 2 doggy sibs along with our 2 boys. He loves to cuddle with each and everyone of us. Ever since his arrival, we all had wondered what he is. After some research, we have learned that he is a Rat Terrier mix. We have included a picture of Sly with his yellow lab sis, Maggie and our current foster, Dime.
We continue to foster even though our doggie family has grown and we wouldn’t change it. Every pup that comes into our home gets all the love they can possibly handle but Sly has truly stolen our hearts. Thank you to our family at Castle of Dreams for giving us this opportunity to both help save lives and for helping our family grow!
