Dec.'96 - Sept.'09
Well, it's been a week since we let our Willaby go. We had her for almost 13 years. She was a birthday gift to me from my now husband, Chad. She has been through EVERYTHING with us. She gave us many memories throughout the years. We use to call her Houdini, cause she could get out of her kennel, her tie out anchor, and squeeze under fences! This got her into "trouble" and produced many puppies! Our kids grew up with her and led her to be very protective of them. I guess that's a good thing. we thought it was funny how she jumped like a kangaroo and stood atop her doghouse like a watchdog. It's not the same around here. No one to give pizza crust to anymore. The picture above was taken a week before we let her go. We found out that she had breast cancer and had metastasized into 3 tumors in her body cavity. She had stopped eating and there were no options. We could not allow ourselves to watch her starve to death, so we decided to have her put down. It broke out hearts. She was our "Princess" and my "boo" . We'll miss you dearly Willaby.
