In all my days, I’ve never seen such a gentle shoe thief, she was so tender when she picked them up. Clearly a distinguished collector.

[@juanitahassler3751]

A collector of fine shoes if you will.

[@a_rinass]

[@sarahstockbridge1582]

My greyhound is a shoe thief also. Very gentle. No teeth marks. Mostly carry’s off heavy hiking boots by one shoelace 😅 bizarre but cute.

[@KateCarew]

Greyhounds are generally super gentle. They have super soft mouths, not like retrievers in that they don’t chomp, just in general, they weren’t made to be jaw oriented and they don’t have that aggressive streak. I’ve had greys my whole life, my mother started fostering in the early eighties. Our family always had sighthounds, Afghans and borzois so when we started with the retired greyhound lifestyle we quickly learned how sweet their natures are. The issue of sleep space aggression is the only problem we’ve had, they DO startle easily, not all of them, but many, and it is ultimately sad, sad because it’s a product of them not being socialized as little babies.

yes i know we all wish they could keep her but just remember, every foster fail is potentially less availability for them to foster more dogs. so the best thing foster parents can do, if they have a passion for helping socialize dogs until they find the perfect home, is to give them tons of love and help the dogs be ready for the next adventure coming their way, then do it again! there's a reason why fosters exist rather than just adoptees.

[@pinklou4598]

totally agree, as much as i think she is a perfect fit for the solomitas it will be depriving the chance of another foster of being in a loving home, any dog would be so fortunate to have j&j as their foster folks and they all deserve that love no matter how long for (still lowkey hope they keep lobby but continue to foster)

[@kz689]

This is such an excellent comment. I want to Foster pets and kiddos but I always say I don't know if my heart could handle it. That said, remembering this and keeping it at the forefront of your mind when you know how many beings need forever homes and you can be a huge step towards that is so necessary for more to be helped and I'm going to try reframing my thought process/emotions so maybe one day I can be a successful foster parent of some kind. 💕

I believe the shoe stealing is a couple things. One, that she loves Julien. Two, that it's a self soothing scent thing. Having Julien's scent in her bed is comforting and taking a shoe outside like we saw is comforting. Maybe that's her love language? Lol I'd suggest bringing a towel with her new owner's scent into the house for a week before she leaves. As well as sending a towel or old t-shirt with Julien's scent with her. Idk if I'd be able to let her go, she's too sweet! 💞💞💞

[@kaymay90]

Fostering, whether animals or children, is such a wonderful thing to do and takes so much heart, care, and patience to do it. If I were in your and Jenna's positions, I don't think I could foster. My heart wouldn't have the strength to give the dog I've been fostering to another family, even if it is their forever home. I'd grow too attached to them and want them all. You and Jenna are truly wonderful people.

[@aithereaasmr]

It can be difficult but I think it is also about your mindset! I fostered a dog once (and I would love to do it again) and I just kept the mindset that I would not be keeping her. It was sad to see her go and I missed her for a little while afterward but I knew that I had done my part -- we identified some health issues while she was in my care -- and she was ready to find her forever family. I should also add that at the time, I was not monetarily stable enough to keep a dog, which helped. I was still in college too, and didn't feel like I could make a 10+ year commitment since I didn't have any clue where my life would be going. That's why I had chosen to foster in the first place instead of getting a dog. I wanted a dog as a companion but i knew it wasn't the right time for me to commit to one, so I decided to foster instead :)
