Vegeta Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Hey folks juts got a call from my brother there and when he came home from work my cocker spaniel Kim was missing. He went driving around looking and found her dead on the side of the road about quarter of a mile from the house. Knocked down by a car To say I am gutted is an understatement. She was a young dog only about 2 and making great progress as a working dog with a great retrieve on Saturday. Very gentle and caring dog. Cant understand how she got out and the first time she gets out she gets hit by a car and killed. So do me a favour and tonight make sure your dogs are safe and happy G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnGalway Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Sorry to hear that G. My old dog Glenn, pts last year, got out of the yard unaccompanied three times during his life, all three times ended up under a car the silly sod. Never got hurt but I guess those are the breaks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancs Lad Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Gutted for you mate. Had one time when Jaz "lost me" when we were out in the morning, was out on the field over the road from the house, it was dark and he ran off doing his usual sniff sniff sniffing around, lost sight of him and he lost sight of me. Blew the return command and he shot past me at about 40yds away, straight down the fence/hedge line and out of view. He ran straight across the main road (and a busy one) and back to the house where I heard him barking at the gate. A LUCKY escape. Hes coming up for his first birthday on the 23rd of this month............... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
