fenboy Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 Sad news Ditchman she was a fine looking dog , one of the few things that does not get any easier the more you do it . Give it a while and get another dog , best cure there is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konnie Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 Head up, I dare say you gave her the best life available, hurts like hell every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortune Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 So sorry for you. I know the pain of loosing three and know that I have got it to come in the near future. Give the other dog a lot of love because it will miss it's mate just as you will. I've always taken care of mine until the time arrives and you have to make the decision and take the last walk. I know a lot of people who go through this never have another dog because of the stress and heartbreak that it can cause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
