I'm sure there's some pet he'll get along with and if I didn't already have Davidson and SunnyBrooke I'd try my hardest to find a pet that he got along with. Do you want me to send him over to you to see if he gets along with Duke?

Oh send him over to me! I'll see if he gets along with Pookie and Jester. I don't have any doubts about Jester. Jester is such a sweetie. Pookie....not sure....but Pookie's getting better. If you want, I can socialize him w/ Jester to even if he doesn't get along with Pookie, he's gotten SOME socializing. bunner055@comcast.net is my email.
About the random dogz comment, I meant I think every dog sent should have been introduced so everyone know's who's being sent, cuz I know if I found a random dog not introduced in my playgroup, I'd probably delete/adopt out that dog.

He seems to be getting along better with David but not so much Brooke. But then again David doesn't exactly like Brooke either. I'll wait for a few days until I make my final decision. Are you still interested to see if he gets along with Duke, DJ? EDIT: I won't be able to go online much over the weekend, family is coming so see ya.

He looks like he's doing very well over at Pookie & Jester's house. We'll see how he does there . I'm sure we'll find out if they get along next Tuesday when they get to come over . I won't be on much either, I have to go in a half hour (and start getting ready now) to go get our costumes and such for our halloween party tonight. Tomorrow I might not be home. Monday again, I gotta work. So talking on here will be limited from now until tuesday. And I agree, all petz should be introduced before being sent out!!! That's what I'm trying to get people to do, though I'm giving everyone a week or two to get settled and get all info up. I'm hoping all info is up by Tomorrow though.

I think the thing with Patches is that you need to let him run around and get situated with you with lots of petting and getting fed cheese. I brought the pet out and then let him get introduced with his own terms. I think that it'd be possible to get him all situated with your other petz by letting him meet them one at a time, if you weren't already doing that.
One last thing, I think we should have a form that peope should fill out about fostering, for example; ~Foster Home Form~ ~Name: ~Email: ~# of Petz:
and such and then be an accepted foster home, because I don't think Foster petz should be sent to homes with, like 20 petz. But that's just my two cents.

I agree, but if your in this group, your in here to play with your petz that are in the Duke's Group. And since your only allowed up to 5 petz, then everybody should be an acceptable Foster Home. All other petz people have aren't counted. I can how ever not allow somebody to be a foster home if they aren't living up to the standards. Same with deleting their account if I don't think they are being active enough or taking the Duke's Group seriously. Since Duke's Group was made for the prime reason of getting people to play with and once again enjoy their petz.
If it comes down to it, then I will make one of those forms, but for now, let's see how it goes. Plus, I think fostering pets helps people not adopt so many petz. People get bored of their same ole petz after a while and need something new. At this point most people adopt another, but with Fostering as an option, they get something new and eventually it goes to another home. They would then be able to foster another. This way always having something new in their home.

Good point. I never thought about the 5 petz limit rule. One question: Is it ok if I decide to mainly foster deformed/special needs petz? I'll of course foster other non-deformed ones, but I just want to know if it's ok that I have a main focus, or should I just open up to all petz?
