What have I gotten myself into?

Tomorrow we get Mason, our first foster dog.

For the last 2 months, I've been talking and volunteering with Lost and Found Dog Rescue in Delaware. A few weeks ago we visited Marleen at her home to meet candidate foster dogs.

"We" are my husband, Steve, myself (Cristina), and Faccia. We live near King of Prussia, PA.

Faccia is our two year old Cane Corso (Kah nay Kor so; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cane_Corso). She's about 24" and 90 lbs, so not that big for a Corso, but big enough.

We met a few dogs, but Mason was the best fit. Mason is a collie, maybe collie mix, Portuguese Water Dog and still a puppy, about 9 months. He's about 18" and 40 lbs. (http://www.lostandfounddogrescue.org/animals/detail?AnimalID=120304)
