Tuesday, Oct. 21 | Drop-In Discussion: Fostering Dogs — Pros/Cons and Benefits
There is a rising need for volunteers to help foster the growing rate of “Pandemic Puppies” being surrendered to animal shelters and dog rescue groups all over this nation. If you have fostered dogs or know people who do, please share your thoughts and experiences with us. Those of us who have or do foster dogs will have an opportunity to share some of the pros and cons, but also some of the benefits, of fostering dogs. John Lukes will moderate. Drop-in Discussions meet via Zoom on Tuesday nights from 6:30-7:30pm. Look on the First Universalist homepage for details and a link, or click the Zoom meeting link in this blurb title!
