Posted @withrepost • @__sillygoose___ Check out my new (and adoptable) friend, Cally! Tonight, my family is participating in the #fosterexpresschallenge through @harborhumanesociety! How cool is that?!? Cally (the mostly black dog on the left) will be hanging out with us for the night and getting all the loves from my family and me ???? She is 1 1/2 and is available for adoption through Harbor Humane Society, though I imagine my new friend will be adopted soon! #thankstomaddie #fosteringsaveslives #harborhumanesociety #adoptdontshop #CallyGirl • • • #instadog #instapuppy #dogsofinstagram #puppiesofinstagram #bernesemountaindogs #bernesemountaindog #bernesepuppy #bernesedaily #cute #adorable #sweet #instagram #insta #instapic #foreverfamily #bernesemountaindoglovers #worldofberners #mydogist #berneslife #iknowadog

From foster family to forever family!⠀ ⠀ Thanks to the new Foster Sleepover Program, Nema found a forever home! ⠀ Nema's new family first brought her home as a Foster Sleepover. They reported that Nema was very timid at first and cowered in the corner away from everyone. After just one day, Nema gained their trust and all she wanted to do was cuddle (pic on left)!⠀ ⠀ If you’re interested in giving a rescue a break from the shelter, please email KGarrand@HSNEGA.org about the new Foster Sleepover program. Whether one night a few or even forever, the Foster Sleepover program is a great way to give the rescues some RNR while they wait to be adopted.⠀ ⠀ @maddies #FosterExpressChallenge
