My husband and I are both in the Air Force, and we both joined straight out of highschool. Growing up with three dogs (two pitbull-lab mixes we raised from birth and one beautiful mutt) it was difficult to come home and not see wagging tails. When I got the call from my mom that our oldest pup had passed, I was devastated. When I told my husband what had happened, he immediately took me to go see some dogs to make me feel better. And it worked. When we saw Brutus, we both fell in love with him and he had to be ours. Nearly a year ago now we adopted him and we won't ever let him go!
