After several failed attempts at winning the dog adoption lottery - I found my best girl at Carver Scott. With other pets in the home, I couldn’t adopt a dog without extensive knowledge of their behavior, so I’m grateful that CSHS places their dogs in foster homes prior to adoption. The application process was seamless, and when I missed out on one of their posted dogs, (2nd applicant), they were quick to connect me with Thelma’s foster family. From there I was able to get a look into the kind of pup she was - what her needs were and if I was a fit! I’m so glad I didn’t give up, and I’m grateful to the volunteers and foster family that made this match possible.
