Abby and junior

(New Lothrop, MI)

We rescued our first Rottweiler from a shelter almost 12 years ago. She was dropped off in the middle of the night and there was no information left about her. We don't know for certain that she is full Rott, but by looking at her you can tell the she is definitely part Rottie.

She is the nicest, most lovable dog I have ever had. She is around 13 now and we love her so much! Last summer we started talking about getting another dog and of course wanted a Rottweiler. But we still wanted to rescue a dog from a shelter.

We found the cutest puppy at a shelter. They told us she was a lab/Rottweiler mix. She was only 8 weeks old when we got her. She looked so much like a mini Abby that we decided to name her Abby junior, but we just call her junior.

She is now almost 8 months old, but I am beginning to doubt that they guessed her breed correctly. She is very small for 8 months old, but pretty stocky. We think maybe she could be more like a beagle/Rott mix because she is so short. Either way, we love her, Even if she isn't a Rottie at all.
