Rottie,
I wanted to tell you that I watched a wonderful program about Rotties on Animal Planet this afternoon. I think they must feature a breed and spend the whole time talking about them.
Those Rotties were magnificent. There was one named Carl, belonging to Alexandra Day, an author who has a whole series of books based on Carl, the Rottweiler. Is that where your Carl got his name?
You must watch for a repeat of the show if you haven't already seen it.
