In 2024, I decided I wanted to try fostering. I already had my dog Coco, and after she had lost her best friend the year before, I wanted to foster to help a dog in need. At the same time, I also wanted to see how Coco would be with a new dog in the house. I got in contact with Petra, the president of DOMINO Dogs of Malaga in Need Organisation.

We wanted to start by sharing a little about who we are, how VIP Dogs came to life, and what we stand for. VIP Dogs started in 2023 with Ebba, whose love for dogs has been part of her life for as long as she can remember.
