there was a home invasion here in my town. Very close to me also. Here are the links to the articles in the paper. I live just off of Green Valley Drive.

Im thinking another rottie is in my near future. Granted I already have 3 dogs and plan to get another yorkie but I always felt a sense of safety with my rottie. This just really creeps me out since it hit so close to my home. I live alone with my dogs and my kids are here part time. I have really great nieghbors that keep an eye on me and check on me all the time. But still.
