Good morning,
My daughter and her husband moved to Gainesville in the spring, and have decided they want to adopt a dog. Does anyone know of a reputable shelter that would help them in this process. They've talked to someone (can't remember where), and the folks there suggested that, since this is a first dog for each of them, they foster first to get an idea of what all having a dog entails. I thought that was a great idea...you know how we moms are...feel like they're barely toilet-trained themselves...how are they going to care for a dog?...totally unfounded since they are both very responsible adults (ages 25 and 28). Any words of wisdom would be great....Thanks!
