The first dog that Cassie took under her wing was a little dog that came in all matted and left with a complete makeover thanks to Cassie. The little dog became her namesake. Cassie dearly loved Cassie and took very good care of her.
The pup Cassie went to a Red Lake Rosie foster home and the girl Cassie has kept in touch.Karen
NOTE FROM FOSTER HOME:Dear Cassie,
Thank you soooo much for taking such good care of "Cassie", because of you she is so calm and confident. My name is Dino and I am fostering Cassie, as you can see by the photo attached we cleaned her up some more and gave her a haircut. Then we got her a harness with angel wings since she is such an beautiful girl.
Cassie is so special that I called a friend that adopted another dog from us, a small white Shih Tzu, and told her about Cassie. That friend J~ is on her way over to the office right now to meet Cassie, and she is bringing Oliver, the dog, too. J~ is a therapist and so Cassie will become a therapy dog just like Oliver is. J~ works with families that are going through some rough times, and it really helps to have a dog there to help them through it. Your letter was beautiful and brought tears to my eyes. I will make sure J~ know how to keep in touch with you.
Dino
FROM CASSIE:Dino,
Thank you so so so much for keeping me posted. I am so glad to know our little girl is hanging in there nicely. She will fit in as a therapy dog just fine considering she is very responsive to peoples' emotions.
I'm so happy that you are fostering her and that she has found the home she needs. I forgot to mention that on the res she was a stray that survived the winter outside with someone feeding her a little to keep her alive.
She looks so wonderful with her haircut and I am sure her wings will go far. I am so happy! Thank you for contacting me, I enjoy all the news I can get :)Cassie
It makes us "older folks" so happy to see that there is a new generation of compassionate rescue people!! Thank you Cassie for being a leader.
