Myself, my sister and our children are dog rescuers; we tend to keep them. When my niece moved from California to Texas five years ago, she took 3 abandoned dogs and one abandoned cat. In Texas she ended up taking in another because her son's wife was pregnant and couldn't handle her old dog.
Then she decided the cat was http://lonely.So she adopted a foster cat, but he came with a buddy foster. Soon she had seven animals in this brand new house of hers. Not a problem for her. She raised four kids on her own.
They were all senior dogs and have since passed. One of the cats has passed also. I keep teasing her about getting another dog. But she dogsits another daughter's Grand Pyrenees, so she's still has her hands full.
Now she has three grandkids nearby as her children chose to move near their mom. I don't know how she does it all.
The most I've ever had at one time was two dogs and a cat. But I love the pup I have now. Jenga will be my last. It hurts to even think that, but at 81, there's no stopping Father Time.
