Hi, I’m Fatima, and I’m excited to share my experience as a first-time rescue mom with Max’s Ark.
For a while, I’d been intrigued by the idea of fostering, and I frequently saw calls for foster families, but I never felt quite ready to take the plunge. That changed at the beginning of the summer when a request for someone familiar with French Bulldogs caught my eye. As the proud mom of a Frenchie myself, I knew I had to help.
I reached out to Max’s Ark Rescue, completed the foster process, and within a few days, I welcomed Pepa and another Frenchie into my home.
I reached out to Max’s Ark Rescue, completed the foster process, and within a few days, I welcomed Pepa and another Frenchie into my home. Pepa had been rescued from a breeder, and she was accustomed to life in a kennel, likely spending most of her time confined. From the moment she joined our family, Pepa, aka Pepps, Pepi, Pepita was a joy to have around, almost as if she was grateful to be with us. Her temperament and energy were just perfect, and she quickly became a wonderful addition to our home.
Although Pepa was only with us for a few weeks, she made a lasting impression on all of us. She faced a few health challenges, but she recovered quickly and was soon back to enjoying the simple pleasures of life, like playing in the grass. Max’s Ark Rescue found Pepa, a loving furever home, where she now lives with her new Frenchie brother and human sisters. She travels the country in an RV and loves tugging on toys during playtime.
Saying goodbye to Pepa was bittersweet, but my heart was full knowing she was going to be part of a loving family. Fostering Pepa was an incredibly rewarding experience, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to have been a part of her journey to a better life.
