She was born Wellslands Bonnie Brooke on Feb 13, 2001 in a litter of 8. She was out of Wellslands Saavedra V Tylaur X BIS X BISS AM/Can CH Vom Lidas Dragonz Treasure CGC TDI.
To everyone who knew her she was “Zena” owned by Laura & John Hovanec. It was Laura & John?s first Rottweiler but Zena didn?t think she was a Rottweiler.
Zena thought it was her job to be friends with everyone and welcome everyone she met into her world. She knew all the neighbors; loved parties and picnics at the house (because she thought those parties were for her). Zena sang at all the birthday parties with “Happy Birthday” being her favorite song to sing. Zena sang the "rub the nub" song she learned as a puppy too! Zena loved Sage's friends and never left her side from the day Sage was born. She was John's second love and Laura's first daughter.

My beloved westie, Mathilde McLeash, CGC, TDI, CD left us this morning. She will be sorely missed by her human family and her sister, Prudence. Mathilde loved to go to dog trials and spent many happy days watching the dogs and people having a wonderful time, which she shared. She also participated in some and managed to rack up a few "Q"s. She went to obedience "school" for several years...again enjoying other dogs and people. Mathilde also was active in doing therapy work with people of varying ages in nursing homes, libraries, and special needs homes. Her last therapy work was done only a couple of weeks ago with the Literacy Volunteers of Waterbury. I would personally like to thank all of the clubs and other organizations which provide opportunities for dogs and their owners to learn and grow and enrich both of their lives. Special thanks to Trap Falls Kennel Club by Chris Durgin
Zena passed away the evening of Sept 26, 2010. She let us share her wonderful life for nine and a half short years. We all get one great dog in our lives and Zena was the one for Laura, John and Sage. Zena was a true ambassador to the breed and she will be greatly missed by her family and friends. We love and miss you Zena.
