"Here is a picture of my cocker-bichon puppy, Dalton (originally named Shawn when we got him). I picked him up April 14th, just two days before the Virginia Tech shootings. I just graduated from Virginia Tech in May, so I was in Blacksburg on April 16th. We were so lucky to have Dalton around during that time, he definitely kept our spirits up in wake of such a horrible event, so I am very thankful for that. He is my first dog, and I couldn't have asked for a better one. He is so loving and obedient, and ADORABLE (everyone loves him). The pictures show him in his New York Mets jersey I just made for him :) Thanks so much!!!"
