[Lola B Marie]

Oh, how I wish I could just give you a hug and promise you that It will get better. A part of your precious girl is engraved on your back and her beautiful spirit is in your heart. I have never seen a more beautiful tattoo. When she watches over you, she can see her picture where ever you are. I know how it feels to have shared so much with one special dog. I lost my Sheena Marie when she was 11. She was a rescue puppy and my first Rottie. I pretended to every one that I was ok.People just got tired of me crying and talking about her and how lost I was with out her. That is why I joined this site. I needed to talk with people who really understand what this kind of bond means. It has been a little less than 3yrs since we made the "trip" Even though she vomited all over me, I still let her eat to her hearts content. She had Wendy's and I had valium. We have Lola now, but not a day passes that I don't remember Sheena. The thing that changes with time is that now, all the memories of her are happy ones. I keep her ashes in a rottie urn and I say good morning to her every day. Lola has learned to sit by the shelf and raise her paw when I say, Go see Sheena. This is not morbid, it is a passage of growth. I know that Sheena wants us to be happy. I smile now when I talk about her and that feels really great. I know you will come to this point in life. It will not be easy but , it will happen. Feeling happy when you think about Roxy will never diminish the amount of love you have for her. She does not want her mom to be sad. Her beautiful and generous spirit is free. Try to focus more on the wonderful times you shared together. The more happiness you can feel, the brighter your aura becomes and the easier it is for the spirits to see us. Every one here has either experienced the loss of a treasured rottie or unfortunately will go through the saddness at some time. We are here for each other!!!
