Kaz

Fosterer and Home Checker

Kaz is a fosterer and homechecker.

MY name is Karen and I am known as Kaz to my friends. I have lived in Kent since I was 18 before that in SE London. One day I may travel somewhere up North but not yet.

I have lived with dogs since I can remember. The first was a real bitsa called Cindy. Our family have lived with goldens since I was 13 so quite a while.

I had Kerry as a 7 week old pup and decided to foster a month before she was 3. My first foster, Molly, is still here as, after 12 weeks, I could never let her go. She was officially adopted on my birthday (May 2006) although it seems she has been here forever. Molly is a month younger than Kerry, both born in 2003.

Since I started fostering I have become the mad dog woman to the locals and they like to ask me about their dog problems. May have to get new career instead of being a postie.

Apart from fostering and homechecking, I used to be the editor of the IRR newsletter.

I love dogs and cannot ever imagine my life without them. My girls are so sweet and are always making me laugh. Who needs therapy when you can live with dogs 🙂

Kaz with Molly and Kerry

Kaz has a smashing son called LUKE, who is her greatest supporter and helper. Here he is being a ROVERing reporter for the newsletter.

Luke says……… I have lived with dogs all my life and they have made me crazy. I help look after Kerry and Molly but they love mum to bits.

I also help my mum with the fostering and am glad of it since I have had the experience of walking 3 dogs, which is great fun, and also listening to Denny (one of our foster dogs) singing Bob the builder with my mum. He was the better singer, lol.

I am hoping to start a business with my mum to help dogs with behavioural problems and, in this way, to be able to help the IRR in future times.Here are some pics of Molly and Kerry in the bath and with Santa.
