Foster is the Animal Protection Society’s pet of the week

The Animal Protection Society of Friday Harbor shares a look at the adoptable animal of the week — Foster, a large year-old mixed breed.

Hi everyone, I’m Foster! Although I’ve only been at the shelter for less than a month, the people at APS-FH have been my friends for a long time — same with many of the Friday Harbor locals, and that’s because I’m a friendly guy. One of my all time favorite things is meeting new people, and I make it a point to do just that. Do you know how many nice, funny, joyful people there are on this island? In Washington state? In the whole wide world? Well I don’t know the exact number, but I spend a lot of my time thinking about how great it would be to meet all of those people and then before I know it, I’m on my way again — trotting off to explore and meet & greet whoever I come across along the way.

A lot of the people I meet are smiling and talking to me in that high, approving pitch of theirs that I like so much. They’re sometimes laughing and that makes me laugh; they’re most often smiling and that makes me smile. I’m still figuring out how to handle my excitement when I meet such happy people and especially when they’re the ones who carry delicious treats. It’s just so exciting and I get so excited! But I’m learning my manners and how to listen; I know that when I find my person(s), we’ll settle into a very happy routine, and I’ll get to prove what a very good pup I can be.
