They have a fearsome reputation, but one Rottweiler is proving that the
breed has a softer side by helping to rear two lambs.

What a sweet story! I love the photo of the lambs cavorting over Molly the
Rottie :)

I was amused that the dog kept the cat away from the lambs. :-)

I have known some sweet rotties-- the females of those big breeds are
ultra-motherly. Why this one is practically a pup herself! Those
little sheeplettes are adorable. ;)
