This morning I contacted a local shelter about fostering one of their dogs. The dog I was calling about was not available to move to a foster home, but the manager of the shelter talked to me about a couple of other dogs that would do well and be more adoptable with some time in a normal home.

So here's the deal. They have a Rottweiler in the shelter who probably only has a couple of months to live due to cancer in her mouth. I was told that they tried to remove the cancer, but could not get it all without taking her jaw. They would like to find someone who can give her a home for the last few months so she doesn't have to spend them in the shelter.

I might end up taking this dog, but we unexpectedly lost our dog a couple of months ago (the reason that we are looking to foster right now) and really don't know if I can handle this. If someone else can step up that will free me up to take a pit that they have who needs some socialization to be adoptable. PM me if you think you could help and I will give you more details.
