jeshen Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 We had to have Harry, our beloved Golden Retriever (aged 14¼) put to sleep this morning. He had 3 fits over 16 hours and it was clear he'd had enough. He was a lovely faithful companion and was brilliant with the ten chickens, despite the fact we only got them in 2011, when he was 10.

redsunset Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 So sorry to read this. Losing a dog and making 'that' decision' is one of the hardest things to ever do. It's devastating. I've been there so feel for you... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gavclojak Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 What a lovely caring mum you were to Harry to have made the best decision for Harry but the hardest for you. I lost my two beloved shiz tzu' within 18 months of each other so I understand how you are feeling. Sleep tight Harry and enjoy rainbow bridge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeshen Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 Thank you for your kind thoughts, which really help. The house seems very empty at the moment. No welcome when we return from walks, no bringing of slippers etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
