About the Foster Puppies
Welcome to the foster puppy site for The Buster Foundation Pit Bull Rescue!
In July 2009, Buster rescued a litter of 2-week old abandoned pit bull puppies from a vacant house in Detroit, Michigan. After the group's remarkable efforts to revive and care for the waning litter, we agreed to foster three of the puppies--two boys and one girl- until they are ready to be adopted. This is a record of their foster experience.

Buster is also in great need of foster homes and new volunteers! Please visit the website above if you are interested in helping out.

Health and Nutrition
- 8/21- Energy levels are high. Play times last longer. Meals are spread further apart now, and naps are much shorter. Everybody had baths tonight, and nobody was happy about it.
- 8/20- Puppies are officially eating just a mix of dry and wet food with a tiny bit of warm water to soften it. No more formula. Ralphie also seems to be eating a little more now.
- 8/19- Doing well with the eating still. Had a small meal late, around 10pm and that was the first since running out of formula. Nobody seemed to mind. Everybody's fur and skin continues to look healthier and thicker.
- 8/18- Everybody is eating well, drinking well, and well . . pooping well. Sorry, but it's important info! Ralphie and George really hate the antibiotics, but the good news is that everybody's skin and fur seems to be doing well. Even spotty little Ralphie seems to be looking a whole lot better.
- 8/17- Keeping an eye on skin condition. Little flecks on Peaches and George, but not much at all. Ralphie is still pretty spotted. Trying to watch him closely for any changes.
- 8/17- Everybody is eating well and drinking tons of water. Pigged out at morning feeding. Ate most of 2nd feeding. Ate very little at 3rd feeding and then immediately went back to sleep. Giving antibiotics in late morning and again in evening. Food is currently mix of dry, canned, and extra diluted formula.

Ditto for Malu and Peaches. We had to poke Peach a few times just to make sure she was still alive, and Malu fell asleep in the entryway when we were dropping him off back at his new home.
