| Re: Bone cancer
My heart goes out to you. I've had to put down 4 of my precious Rotts in the last 2 years. 2 from cancer, 1 from complications with an enlarged heart and one from complications from old age and a bad fall. All were age 9-10. The 2 that passed from cancer collapsed and I had to rush each of them to the emergency vet clinc. My last moments were with them in my arms on the way to the vets knowing that they would not be at the door to greet me when i got home from work the next day. Spend all the quality time you can with him and enjoy it.
My wife and I do not have kids, Rottweilers are our kids. I cannot put adequately into words how I feel about this breed. They have given me great joy over the years and I try to focus on that instead of the painful heartache of having to see them go. I will never be without a Rott - I now have a 3 1/2 year old female named Maya who we rescued last August. I hope that as time passes and the ache eases you are able to bring another magnnificent Rott into your life to honor the memory of your boy.  |
