Those who are alone this christmas...

...or will be having a very quiet one with no visitors - several dogs' homes are looking for temporary foster homes for their animals over the festive season. Just thought it was worth mentioning as it wasn't something I would have thought of, and there might be someone on here who would enjoy some company who might not otherwise be able to under normal circumstances.

I didn't know, that's interesting. Problem for me is that I don't think I'd be able to send one back. Having said that, I might to be able to take on a couple of cats permanently.
Thanks for posting dollyanna.

You couldn't point me in the right direction, could you? Based in Shropshire!

Try googling "foster dog for christmas shropshire" or something similar, I came across it on fb somewhere and I'm sure that was the Mayhew, but when I googled many of the smaller local rescues were also asking. Try just getting in touch with local rescues and see if any of them have someone who would benefit from a couple of weeks out of kennels?

Same here, only I'm in Cornwall and could take a small dog.

I know Dog Samaritans in the Ludlow area are always looking for foster homes, might be worth contacting them if you are in the south of the county.
