Ken, are you trying to tell us that Julius Caesar used the same kind of cologne as Elvis?

That's a Rotty, they have that menacing look!
Six thousand years ago when I was the A-hole behind the USPS counter, one of my regs came in with a Rottweiler as a blind persons seeing eye dog. But this dog was like no other, her name was Faith, you could google her exploits, very smart dog.
Anyway, I was privileged to be able to have contact with Faith, the owner gave me her dog biscuits so every time they came in, I could give her one....ohhh she loved that.
As they would move through the line, Faith would be staring at me with drool dripping from her mouth, my other regs would say, Geoff, that dog looks like she wants to eat you! I'd laugh and say wait till you see when she gets here.
As I did with my husky back then, I'd put the biscuit in my mouth and let the animal take it from me. I had a low counter next to me so I could lean over and down, it took two visits to smooth out the transition, faith gave me a smashing headbutt the first couple of times.
But that isn't the cool part. Faith was a working service animal for an epileptic blind woman, she could open closed doors, and she could call 911 (google dog calls 911, opens door for police).
This customer had become a POBox customer and came back to my counter and said, Geoff, I have something here and I don't know what it is, can you please help me? Of course I answered professionally and politely as I had a customer in front of me.
So I come out into the lobby and said, hold the letter out and I'll take it. The letter drops to the floor. I bend down to pick it up with finger and thumb on the edge, Faith also puts her paw on it and going down pick it up in her mouth and I freeze.
And there we are, face to face looking right at each other. Then she bites my head off and I die instantly, oh wait, different story
Seriously, Faith lifts her paw and licks me on the cheek, allowing me to do her job. I was in awe. I told my customer what just happened, and she said, Faith loves you Geoff, she wouldn't let anyone else do that.
I have a few special moments working with the public. That one rates high on the list.
