Worried

Oh no, I am so, so sorry :( This is the worst news. You must be absolutely devastated. No words are adequate at such a dark time. My thoughts are with you and your lovely boy.
 
I don't know how it can hurt so much :(. I am not a tearful person at anything much, but cannot stop crying. We had fun holidays planned this year with him coming. I pictured him doing the walk to school with my baby in years to come. Sorry for the gushy post, but know you are all dog people who understand!

its really hard to lose any dog-young or old. but with a younger one its particularly unfair and harsh. life is crap sometimes, I hope you are able to have some quality time with him this weekend.

It is hard enough to say goodbye to a dog who has lived out a very full, happy and long life. It is another thing altogether to have a young dog snatched from you at the prime of life :( It is unfair and cruel. You really do have my full sympathies. I have lost two dogs at age 5 and 6 in the past and it was really hard to cope with.

Feel free to share some photos of your lovely lad if you would like to. I found surrounding myself with the memories of all the great things we had done helped. x
 
He is home chilling on the sofa! Time for 3 days of gentle fun and lots of hugs before we say goodbye.
At least we know there is nothing more we can do. Even if he showed signs earlier it would not of made a difference.
We got him 3 years ago- he had spent his first 2 years in a barn and was bullied by the other dogs and under weight by 8kg! He has brought us so much joy and I like to think we have given him a great 3 years, 7 less than I would of liked though.

Thanks for all your kind words.

Never learned how to put photos on here, he is so handsome!
 
I will PM you my email address and if you send me a photo or two, I will post them up for you.

He sounds a lovely boy and it must be some comfort to you to know that, after a bad start, he had three wonderful years with your family.
 
I am so sorry to read this, it sounds like he has had a wonderful time with you and been much loved after a poor start to his life. Take care x
 
Thanks to pippixox for sending me the photos of her beautiful boy to enable me to share them here.

Isn't he a beautiful. His gentle personality just shines out of these pictures.





 
The last photo, with you and the horses, is fabulous. (They all are). What a handsome boy. Be glad for what time he has had with you.
 
What a handsome dog. Compared to how you describe his first 2 years, I'm sure that his 3 years with you have been like being on a different planet for him.

I don't know about others, but I can't read posts like this without in the back of my head thinking **It could have been my bitches**, and it makes my heart ache. They give so much joy to our lives, but it hurts so much when their life ends. ((((((Hugs))))))
 
What a lovely looking dog he is, life is so bloody cruel sometimes, I lost my dog of a life time age 4, I only had him from 18months. I feel your pain and heartache and all the what ifs Im sure are going through your mind, go and buy him some good steak, spoil him rotten and hugs to you.
 
Thank you for your kind words. We are heartbroken and the house feels empty. Just been doing the horses- so strange without him by my side.

He was PTS at home this lunch time, it was so calm and peaceful. He was such a good boy- not fussed by the canuala. Just drifted off in my arms.

Cancer takes the best people and animals :(
