This week, Surane sits down with one of his closest pals, Lena Strothe, to talk about the fun - and realities - of fostering a dog. Shortly after LA went into lockdown last year, Lena picked up a pup she fondly nicknamed “Q” (for Quarantina!) Their time together was short, and letting go was harder than Lena could've expected, but the experience of caring for this little wonder really helped Lena get through the early stages of life in quarantine.

Lena’s Leave-A-Dog-A’Bone references: Donate and foster pups from Ace of Hearts Dog Rescue in West Hollywood. Follow them on IG @aceofheartsdogrescue to help foster or adopt the pup that's right for you!
