Willow & Mecca

I would like to send a tribute to my two Rottweilers, Willow and Mecca. They were a very special part of my life. They were my children. When they were called away, they took a part of me with them. Each day they are in my thoughts.

Willow was my first rottweiler, she taught me so much about her breed. She was strong, loveable, protective and my best friend. When she died at 10 1/2 yrs of age of bone cancer, my world came to a stop. I ever thought my love for an animal would take me where I was.

After months upon months of mourning her loss, my hubby decided to get another dog. My feelings were different. I didn't want another dog, I wanted my Willow back. We did get another rottie puppy, and named her Mecca. She was 12 weeks old and what a hand full. At first, I had no real feelings for her. I didn't feel that love like I had before.

It took time, and then one day it happened, I feel in love with this new little girl in my life. She was a joy. She also became my protector, campanion, and best friend. I loved her. After 9 years, that suddenly came to an end. She had trouble walking, after seeing several doctors, they came up with the diagnoses that she had a tumor on her spine and brain. These words of "It's just a matter of time", is not what I wanted to hear. She lived 6 weeks after that, and had a seizure and I had to say goodbye to her. She was my pride and joy too.

They both are missed deeply.
