"My name is Cassie and It took me a long time to find my forever family. I had 2 spells in the kennels where they were very kind to me but I wanted a family to love.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t seem to stop barking at every one who visited the kennels... until... these two people came with a large dog who looked like me. I don’t know why, but I didn’t bark at them and even behaved when they took me for a wee walk.

They said they would take me home and I am still with them. I love my new home and know that I will be here forever; even if I am still frightened by strangers and need extra encouragement not to bark at everything.

I know that I am loved and even Maccon, the other German shepherd, puts up with me. Love Cassie"
