We expanded our family on February 22nd after looking on PetFinder and seeing the dogs at Canine Connections – eventually we ended up choosing Cassie (actually her name is Casper).
Echo Glen is a coeducational juvenile correctional program for adolescents between the ages of 11-20. The Canine Connections Program there pairs residents at Echo Glen Children’s Center (at risk youth) with unwanted dogs, many on doggie death row, giving both dog and student a second chance.
We’re not sure about why someone gave her a boy’s name so we’re choosing to change it slightly to make it a little more feminine.
