So they adopted the little girl AND the Rottweiler?

I was just going to go on here and post this story!!!! I live in minnesota and the rottie is getting good coverage here!!!!!! All my friends and family watched it, I tivo'd it so i can show other people to. Very happy to hear a good story in minnesota esp. from another state!! and i belive here they did say rottweiler saved little girls life!!!!

Pulled the article from the Idaho news right when it was released, didn't think it would actually get national coverage. I am however happy that they are playing it across the states. People need to see that rottweilers are not big mean dogs that go around eating children. The only ones that hurt people are not mean dogs, they just have bad owners.

This is a great story for rottweilers and adopted rottweilers. It shows that they don't have to grow up with someone to care about that person. It shows how caring these dogs really are...adopted or not. GREAT STORY

Thanks for posting such a great story. My two rotties never leave my two childrens side either. And it's great to see the positive attention so people can have a window into how great this breed can be! Good boy Buster and congrats on your forever home.....Tina

tho why the little girl was not wearing a helmet while riding....course, knowing horsey kids, she probably never thought about it before sneaking away on her horse.

Thx for posting this story....maybe it should be forwarded to some major city newspapers???

Hey Juney
How bright where you at 8! Can you focus on the lifesavng action of the girls dog and not the lack of forward thinking of an 8 year old!!!! I cant imagine placing value judjments on an 8 year old
