Yes, we need our pugs to be used to being alone because most people have jobs. Are all the pugs that need foster homes sick? No. Most are healthy and just in transition. What if a foster isn't working out or I can't foster anymore? We pull any foster pug that isn't working out that day or the day after. What if I have to travel while I am fostering? We provide boarding for all of our foster homes. What is the typical stay of a foster? 30 days for Healthy Pugs, 60-90 days for pugs with any physical/behavioral issues. |
