A very special Lort Smith foster carer, Maggie typically fosters dogs requiring strict cage confinement after they have had a fracture or patella repair.

Maggie has a dog crate permanently set up in her lounge room – as soon as one foster dog leaves for adoption, she is ready to take on another needing care.

Maggie is incredibly dedicated and performs physiotherapy and rehabilitation exercises on the dogs – this helps them to heal faster and make a full recovery.

Maggie has fostered more than 40 dogs for Lort Smith since she commenced volunteering in 2009.
