Take your time and go with your gut. As a foster home for years, I found those who spent time deliberating the decision made for better homes. And those who decided not to do it "now" were extremely good homes when they did do it.
I have been a member of a Collie rescue group for years and when I do commit it will be a forever home.
Exactly. Because you don't make a longterm decision without really thinking it through. :). And you make sure it's a good fit between you and the individual dog rather than just wanting that breed of dog and here's one now.
I have no doubt your final decision will be the right one.
(And yes, I had other fosters tell me I was too reserved when doing adoptions - but all of my dogs went to their forever home when the adoption happened because I didn't push the adopters.)
