To give you a smile, your dogs' reaction to the woman from CPS is a good sign. There's a woman way down the end of our street who has only lived there for about a year (and the house is on the market - she bought an old housed and fixed it up). We've never met, but I know her and her dogs by sight - she's a small Asian woman with short, permed blonde hair, and she's got a yorkie I've seen her walking many times, and a gorgeous red pittie - looks like a picture-book pittie - that sometimes hangs out on a long lead in the yard. I drove by one day and saw an unfamiliar man in the yard, but instantly noticed the pittie's tail was wagging a mile a minute - in fact most of the back half of the dog was wagging, so I figured the guy must be okay!
