Kids have dirty faces

Cassie is a rottie that we adopted to a wonderful young couple here in Charlottesville. They both graduated from UVA, moved to Georgia for a couple years, had a baby girl, and are now back living in northern Virginia.

They have not one, but two large dogs. Both Cassie and Cooper were adopted from us. These folks started new careers, moved twice, and had a baby, all without dumping their dogs.

These are seemingly impossible feats for so many people these days, who dump their dogs along with all other aspects of their single lives when they buy that first mini-van.

I'm sure it wasn't always easy, but then, neither is giving up your dog, or at least it shouldn't be.

my rottie, bria, LOVES a kid with a dirty face! i mean, they are right there at her tongue level, so why not help out mom and dad with the bath? side note.........she is also always willing to "clean" any adults, other dog, or even cats face!!

Great Post, Brent. Most people don't have to give up their pets if they just try. This is such a wonderful story. I love the pictures too.

Love to hear the happy stories. They should ride a how-to book or something - I read craigslist for 5 minutes, it was enough to make me go crazy!
