I think dw is leaning toward yorkie since she is very particular about keeping the dogs clean and yorkie has finer hair and doesn't get as much of the staining from food/ tears. 4951

I have to disagree. I know a few tzu's that are just as happy as any other big dog in a little dog's body! I'm not too find of small dogs. 4951

Scooby wants me to tell you that he doesn't shed and he LOVES to play with other small dogs.  And he will give you lots of kisses.  Ask @pharlap.

@lola @pharlap.   Scobby looks like fun.  Great efforts!  We are going to try and foster, not foster to adopt.  At least for a little while.   Both our dogs are 3 years old and we would like some furbaby age spacing.  LOL.  We want to foster to help, to see the dynamics of three, and to not take on the full responsibility right now.   Our pack now is virtually no work, (at least not for me) they are lap rugs.   Well one is when she is not perched on the furniture like the queen of all she surveys,  the other lays at my wife's feet.  The big one sleeps on the couch and the little one decided on her own that she wanted her bed in the closet.  She literally tells you when she wants to be tucked in.  So if scooby and princess butter cup are set in foster homes we should probably look to foster elsewhere instead of foster stealing.  lol.   Edited:  The Mrs says it wouldn't be the first time she Foster stole.  That is how we got to foster the Shih Tzu she saw it at her friends home.   4951

Please let me know if you will consider fostering for Twylas. We can only help dogs with foster homes. You can be on our list for a small dog if that's all you want to foster.

@lola: Hey,  Twyla's is a great group.  I think both my wife and I are agreed on only fostering hypoallergenic dogs perferably yorkies and possibly Shih Tzu's.  Neither of us care for Schnauzers, full bred poodles or the all white dogs. The wife likes females.  I realize we are setting ourselves up for foster failure ( the chi was a foster failure) but she really likes those breeds and they won't make her allergies worse than they are currently.   Our corgi/ shep mix taxes the wife's allergies and sheds enough daily to knit us all a sweater each week.  DW takes as much care with a foster as she does with our own and treats it like part of the family so wants something she likes.  We were thinking in order to be more helpful to a rescue we would need to do a breed specific one but are not opposed to Twyla's at all.  If you have those breeds waiting for a foster home let me know otherwise we will probably be filling out a foster application soon for the two Yorkie breed foster groups in Houston.
