[QUOTE="Wish, post: 738028, member: 23140"] My dog was (and still is) always like that when I fostered other dogs. It took her a few weeks to start being herself again and it was like night and day when she finally accepted the foster. I know she misses all of them. I'm sure your dog will be herself again. Just keep talking to her and explain who the new dog is. That is what I do with my dog. Everyday, and multiple times a day I will say "Maci, that's our new foster dog Mia. She comes from a sad place. We need to take care of her and get her ready for her new forever family. We have to make her a happy girl. Will you help me take care of Mia? I sit on the floor with them and I pet my foster "we have to take care of hers". My dog finds a lot of comfort when I talk to her and I'm telling you, she really understands. She then becomes like a mother to my fosters. I know you fully adopted your new dog, you can just replace the words to adjust to your situation. I know, sounds coo coo ca chu right? It's the best advice I got lol. [/QUOTE]
