How many dogs can fit in this house?




Sophie is not a guide dog, although she will guide me to every single scrap of discarded bagel on the sidewalk. Despite those annoying talents, I always thought she would have made an excellent guide dog in the true sense of the word. Perhaps that is why she yells so loudly at guide dogs when she's sees them. Jealousy. Envy. Missed opportunities. Dreams of what might have been.

I wonder how Sophie would feel about fostering a puppy. I just sent an inquiry to the Mira Foundation, which is more or less the French Canadian guide dog organization. I'm not sure if you can even foster a pup if there is already a dog in the house, but it is something I've always wanted to do.
