A Foster Dog’s Journey: Highlighting Ernie

I was Ernie’s last stop before a final decision was made to end his life. He had been shuffled around between shelters, rescues and foster homes and I was his sixth stop before he had reached his first birthday. When Ernie arrived, I questioned my decision to take him on; his energy level and behaviors were nothing I had witnessed before.

For the next year we forged ahead, unraveling and revealing the causes for his erratic behaviors. Ernie was teaching me while he was softening my husband’s heart. Within the pages of this story, you will laugh and cry, and have your beliefs challenged. And in the end hopefully you will

have grown just as we did and celebrate the challenges presented to us.

Ernie Ernie Ernie…what are we going to do with you?
