Think rescue is just about saving a dog? What if that dog ends up saving you?

In this emotional and eye-opening episode, Em celebrates Toby’s 12th Gotcha Day and sits down with Tracy Fosterling, a foster and rescue advocate who’s fostered over 60 dogs—many of them “unadoptable.” Together, they unpack the gritty, beautiful reality of what rescue really looks like: patience, partnership, training, enrichment, and second chances for dogs—and people.

In this episode:

• Hear the real stories behind feral dogs, misunderstood behavior, and the power of trust

• Learn why training and enrichment—not punishment—are essential to a rescue dog’s recovery

• Discover how you can support rescue work, even if you can’t adopt or foster

Press play for an honest look at rescue, recovery, and what it truly means to show up for dogs when no one else will.
