What's up dog?
Cashew has been the big brother to about 15 foster puppies and 75 foster kittens since we adopted him 2 years ago. He teaches our pups to be well-balanced socialised dogs and sets our kittens up for success by getting them used to dogs before being adopted. Cash is the sweetest dog despite his ‘scary’ appearance and he’ll happily lie in bed with us all day if we let him, I’ve never met such a cuddly dog! He’s definitely helped me with my mental health struggles the past couple years and he is constantly inspiring me to help more animals like him.
