Soybean was picked up by me near the Spring Festival. As a foreigner, going home for the Spring Festival has become the biggest problem. I used to have nothing to worry about, but now I really don't want to go out for a minute.
So when I am not at home, where should the soybean be placed?
Pet shop?
It has long been said that pet stores are not very friendly to pets, and the cage environment is dirty and messy. The most important thing is that soybeans have not yet been vaccinated, and children over a month old are likely to suffer from infectious diseases or skin diseases in such a complex environment. So PASS!
To a friend?
I just came to this city, and I don't have many friends. And friends are going home for the Spring Festival. Keep PASS!
Family foster care?
Generally, people who do family foster care have pets. I am worried that soybeans will be bullied, and I am also worried that soybeans will be scolded for being naughty. Keep PASS!
After thinking about it, I finally decided to put it in the home of a friend who lives alone and is still working normally during the Spring Festival. He is a kind and responsible person, so the dog feeding matters I told him will be carefully implemented; and living alone can ensure that no one else will interfere with the dog's feeding. The most important thing is that they have a large balcony of about 20 square meters, which can facilitate the activities of soybeans but not destroy the furniture.
After choosing the place of foster care, we began to prepare the necessities of soybeans.
Before the adoption, I bought a food bag and weighed the dog food in advance, so that he could feed it conveniently and ensure that the amount was correct each time.
Because my friend also goes out early and comes back late, and soybean, as a small milk dog, needs four meals a day, so I bought an automatic feeder and a water feeder.
Considering that the soybean was placed outdoors, he prepared a relatively closed yurt-style kennel for him and placed it on the leeward side.
You don't need to take the whole bag of urine pads, but it must be more than number of days of foster care to avoid accidents.
Snacks help foster care to build trust with her, and also help foster care to calm her emotions.
I brought all the toys I could, in order to create as familiar an environment as possible, so that she would not be anxious and lonely.
Because most pet hospitals are closed during the Spring Festival, they prepare some commonly used medicines, so that the foster owners are at a loss when they are ill, and the dogs suffer.

After the bags were ready, I took her to the foster place. First, I arranged her nest, explained feeding and daily precautions to my friends, then took her to familiarize herself with the surrounding environment, and let my friends interact with her for about half an hour. When everything was in order, I was reluctant to leave.
Note, do not put down and leave, so that the dog can not be familiar with the environment and foster owners, after the foster life may be very uncomfortable, and there is the possibility of causing anxiety disorders and personality disorders.
This is the ticket circle I sent after fostering her, and I was really sad at that time.
Both we and the dog hope to be together all the time, but when we have to leave the dog for a period of time due to some objective factors, please find a good foster place and foster owner for her as far as possible, and patiently accompany her to familiarize herself with the foster environment.
I hope that every foster care is a wonderful experience for dogs to familiarize themselves with new environments and things, rather than unknown of loneliness and panic.
