Guess who went to daycare today and did amazing on her very first day? Vivienne! She was a little nervous at first, but she quickly warmed up, had a blast, and made a bunch of new friends. Huge thanks to our friends at Dogs Rule Daycare & School® for always welcoming our foster dogs, giving them a chance to socialize, and making sure they have the best experience. This is her “I’m so tired but still want to play in the grass” face! (fb)

🌟 Foster Spotlight! 🌟 Meet Bailey and her amazing family — true heroes in the world of fostering! 🐾 For the past few months, they’ve been fostering sweet Vivienne, and their dedication has been nothing short of inspiring. From working through behavioral quirks to helping her overcome the stress of kennel life, this family has gone above and beyond to get Vivienne ready for her forever home. Whether it’s extra socialization, pack walks, or simply providing a stable and loving environment, Bailey’s family shows up. And Vivienne isn’t the only lucky pup in the home — she’s thriving with the help of their two dogs, Brody and Arm Alumni Wendy! 🐶❤️🐶 We asked Bailey what keeps them fostering, and her answer says it all: 🗣️ “We like fostering because we like to give dogs a chance. We especially love the shy, shut down dogs. Nothing makes us happier than watching them learn they’re safe. When they no longer cower at your every move and get so happy to see you come home. When they start seeking pets and cuddles — those are my favorite. They’re often overlooked because they don’t do well in shelters and are older. Those are the ones that so often end up being the best dogs.” Thank you, Bailey and family, for showing Vivienne (and all of us) what love, patience, and commitment can do. 💛 If you want to make a difference- like Bailey and her family click the link to start your foster application. https://www.aliverescuememphis.org/foster (fb)
