Frannie needs your help! | MN Boxer Rescue Foster | Minneapolis Dog Photography

As many of you know, Modern Life Photography loves to open our heart & home for foster dogs to come get complimentary photos done, in hopes to help showcase their true personality, and show potential adoptors how great they are.

Today Frannie wiggled into our studio, full of kisses and love. She showed up in a cute sweater, and at 1st sight, she looked like a healthy, sweet boxer with an extra large under-bite. Underneath that sweater however, are large mammary gland tumors, as well as a fatty mass on her neck and leg. Frannie is also heart worm positive. Eventhough she has been through hard times, and has many medical conditions, the vet believes that Frannie will "blossom" and has more good years left in her.

Frannie is an amazing girl because she would rather love you than let her ailments bring her down...but she needs our help. She has a few surgeries coming up that she desperately needs, and with your help, she will be back to good health soon. Please visit MN Boxer Rescue to find out how you can help.

My favorite picture of Moby, the french bulldog | Minneapolis Pet Photography

While uploading photos last night of Moby, this one seemed to slip by us, and I don't know how, it is one of my favorites!! It is in our new studio room that I designed. The room has 2 sides, fun colors, and fun props! Makes for a unique picture for any type of dog! Thank you Moby for being the 1st pup in our new studio room, the picture looks great!

Luna Our Foster Found A Home | The Importance Of Fostering & Animal Rescue

As you all know, we're HUGE animal people.  Our dogs & cats are our kids and we couldn't imagine life without them.  BUT, not all animals live the good life; in-fact millions of animals suffer every year and desperately need our help.  

While donating money is critical (a portion of every single session we shoot is donated to causes we support), it's imperative that we all do more.  Nothing says love like opening up your own house and home and welcoming a stranger, either to adopt or foster until they find their forever home.

If you've been following this blog you've seen the couple posts about Luna, the latest 8 week old puppy we were fostering for MN Boxer Rescue.  She was sassy and sweet and totally won us over in the short week we had her.  We cannot express how grateful we are for the home that she found, but we miss her dearly.  While looking through the hundreds of photos we took while she was here, we found a few more favorites and wanted to share. 

To those that support rescue organizations, thank you!  If you're a pet lover and want to do more to help, please contact us and we'll help you take the first steps.  If you're already involved with rescue organizations and want to help further, we welcome the opportunity to talk about lobbying for animal rights.  Stopping the problem at the source is the ultimate way to help.

Moby The French Bulldog | Minneapolis MN Dog Photography 

This weekend we had Moby the Frenchie in the studio, a first for us.  We expected him to be photogenic, and he certainly did not disappoint.  Moby and our furkids hang out together at Pampered Pooch Playground together, they agree that Moby is super duper cool.

Luna Update: She's Getting Adopted | MN Boxer Rescue Success Story 

Little Luna didn't waste her time wiggling her way into our hearts.  She's the perfect combination of sassy and sweet and is SUCH a boxer (for you boxer owners, you know exactly what we mean). 

Here's a quick little video we took of her, makes me smile every time I watch it.
