In my 11+ years of working in pug rescue I've found one of the most important aspects of fostering is to get a feel of the dog's personality. Many are afraid of men. Some don't get along with other pets. Some hate cats. Some aren't good with small children. Some are very active. Some are pure couch potatoes.

It's far better to find this out in foster homes where the person knows that the dog is there temporarily than to find out when the person/family thinks the dog will be there forever, IMHO.
