One of the more frequent questions potential foster homes ask us is, "Is it okay if  I already have a dog?"  The answer is yes, many of our foster homes have another dog and in some cases, several other dogs.  These family pets watch as the new puppy is trained and often learn right along them.  One of Helping Paws' foster homes, the Bartels, recently entered a contest Trish Van Pilsum of Fox 9 news had through her blog.  The contest was to win a photo shoot with photographer, Molly Durkin.  To enter the contest you had to write why your dog deserved to get his picture taken.  Lori submitted her family pet, Indy, and said he deserved the photo shoot because he helped her train service dogs.  Indy won, had his photo shoot and was featured on Trish's blog.  His photos are amazing and Indy had his well deserved moment in the spotlight.
