Hello from Illinois

[Sullysfostermom]

Hello everyone my name is Shelby I live on a farm outside of Geneseo, Il. I just lost my Zeus Dec11th broke my heart he was my first Pitbull and the most amazing dog anyone could ask for. Losing him was incredibly hard and I feel like I need some time before I find my next furbaby,so I decided to try fostering for a local Pitbull rescue. Sully's my first foster he came Sat the 12th.He's a 50lb puppy and he's GREAT so far.He's Very Loving and full of Energy.Were working on manners which honestly the last couple of days are improving he has learned sit and today we worked a lil bit on lay down he's really smart and picks up fast but it's a chore to keep him focused . He has a lot to learn but he's a very SWEET LOVING boy! I joined this forum to meet and learn from other Pitbull lovers! Well I'm gonna get off here for now!Looking forward to hearing from everyone and especially would love to hear from and get advice from others who foster!
