Ah, I’m so happy for Wee Willy. Always thought he was adorable, especially in his blue pajamas. Hope he and Amy have many, many happy years together!

Be happy, little man! You’ve been on my mind since meeting you and I’m so happy for Amy that she will get to see your sweetness unfold. All the best to you both…and to Molly for taking such good care of him and Sherri for being the best Mutt-Mom ever!

Hooray!! Amy and Wee Willy happily ever after!

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you All for the good wishes and for all your great and HARD work! Unlike with Sherri and Molly who have received moment-to-moment emails about Willy’s great new (and last) adventure, I promise to be short and sweet…

Willy’s doing wonderfully. Within moments of arriving home, Queenie the ChihuaWhat showed him where to take care of his beeswax and, despite the rain and soggy ground, Willy has a 100% perfect record. Like me, he likes to fall asleep during sappy sweet British movies and he likes banana yogurt smoothies. Queenie has also shown him the finer points of defending the front door against the mail carrier. (If they could just persuade him to keep the junk and the bills…)

Okay, I promised short and sweet but there’s so much more I could say. Willy’s at home with us and we are in love with Willy! Tomorrow he goes to make acquaintance with our vet. Right now he’s napping in a sunbeam and after he wakes up he’s scheduled for a pedicure.

Again, thanks to you all at Muttville so much for all you do to help our more “mature” four legged friends!

Beauty, Pffft! Too often wasted on the young!

It is with an aching heart along with some relief that I must tell you that Willy has died. About a month ago he was diagnosed with cancer of the pancreas and for awhile he did okay with medications and a diet he didn’t much care for but ate anyway. As it always goes with all incurable maladies, he began taking a turn for the worse a few days ago. I had planned to have him euthanized today, a very painful decision, but he decided to go here at home next to me on the bed about the time the sun began to rise.

I’ve loved and had dogs all my life but, to a number, I always chose them. Willy is the only dog that ever chose me. I’ll never understand why, such things probably aren’t ours to know anyway, but I’ll never regret a moment of the brief two years he graced my life and loved me.

I will miss Willy and I will continue to sing Muttville’s praises forever. Thank you for the great humane work you do. In saving one little dog’s life, you brought love and happiness into mine.
