We'll be sharing foster carers' first-hand experiences, both to celebrate and thank them for their amazing work, and also with the hope of encouraging more of you to get in touch with your local rescue and see if you too could be a life saver!
We were lucky enough to meet Stephen and Luna when she was still a foster dog, but it was obvious even then that they had an incredibly special bond and when we heard that she was going with him when he moves to Ireland later this year, we were over the moon!

Many people are wary of fostering as they worry that they won't be able to say goodbye to dogs that they have fallen in love with.

August is once again Focus on Foster Care month at SavourLife, and we're really excited to be shining a light on some of the real life super heroes who are absolutely essential in keeping rescue groups all over Australia going.
We've been working with Sydney Animal Second-chance Inc. for a number of years now, and recently sponsored mumma Tigger and her litter of 8 Winnie the Pooh Puppies, covering all costs while they were in foster care with The Dog Nose, learning all about the world and getting ready to find their forever families!
