Sebastian Von Rottie
My baby Sebastian died April 23, 2008 in hours of the morning. He was being treated for more than four months for an unknown illness. We thought he might have had babasia. We even thought he had skin cancer. After all the relentless exams, blood work and even a biopsy looking for cancer, all the results came back negative. Finally the doctor discovered why Sebastian was ill. Sebastian had a Mass Tumor in his abdomen which had spread all over his body. Yesterday Sebastian said his last good bye.
It was shocking for me to know how sick he was and really didn’t show many symptoms of how ill and weak he was. All day Wednesday we played. I cooked his favorite dish and we ate together. He was very happy. He was able to play with the nine puppies that I am babysitting. Sebastian helped me clean them one by one. It was a special time. One the only times that I can say all my rotties have been so united, loving caring rotties. We all did not know his days would end soon. Perhaps it was meant to be this way by me not knowing the reality. Everyone knows that I requested a special prayer for him when he had his biopsy. The results took more than three weeks to come back. I wonder if that was meant to be. It is not common results take this long. What did the results take this long? That is the way it was meant to be. Boy was I so happy the day result came back negative. I jumped up and down for joy. I am so grateful to you all for the prayers and even more grateful today for being there when I needed it the most. I thank you all for Sebastian Von Rottie.
I can truly tell you all I love what I do with my dogs and very proud of them all. That is why is so hard to say good bye. Sebastian was an excellent Service and caring dog. Like I say, for a Rottweiler he had the best temperament of all. by losing him April 24, 2008 made me realizes that I must continue to fight for all those animals that didn’t get the chance to live a happy life and fill our families with love like our pets. My home is a safe and loving home. Remember it doesn’t matter what we do, fostering, investigating and feeding homeless animals. The important part is we are it for the right reasons. We sacrifice everything for love of the animas in general and their safety. It doesn’t matter if you do it alone or with an organization, you are doing it. What is so incredible is when we lose one of our own pets, I have lost two in one month’s time, but still find the strength to continue to protect and be the voice for the animals. We use our love help all animals. Especially those who were neglected and abused by their past owner and try to find them all safe and loving homes.
Whoever is taking the time to read this, it must mean you care for animals and understand that they are part of our family. You all know that they will always be your best friend until day they die. I want to also thank everyone who is doing such an excellent job protecting the abundant stray animals here in Puerto Rico or elsewhere in the world. We all might work differently and do different things, but we do care for them in our own special way. All animals no matter how the animals may look. Who doesn’t know me! Alma and the Rottie Gang does investigation, I go with my dogs to educate people and kids how to love and care for your pets. I visit hospitals and schools. I also try to find homes for dogs and even try to find that special dog for people who are disabled. We have to do all we can to save
all the worlds unfortunate animals.
Thank you all for caring and loving all the animals.
