In episode 2.23, hosts Jenny Nordin and Ashlyn Kauh face an unprecedented challenge finding fosters for incoming dogs this summer, a historically busy season. Preparing for the annual foster volunteer party includes a cleanup of the foster database and onboarding new fosters, with most applications woefully 'delulu' in their expectations. In good news, Declan aka Little Dicky finds his forever home (and it’s not in an apartment), and Alfie’s slow integration into his new home is a smashing success. Tannhauser and Pearlinhaus German Shepherds land on the 'shit list' for advertising as 'reputable' breeders who always take their dogs back but actually don’t. The dynamic duo also answer a half dozen audience questions, ranging from the scientific to the silly. Stay tuned after the outro for deleted scenes and bloopers.
