dytkos 17,537 Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 Buried my old Russell today, 3 weeks shy of 16, kidneys started failing a few months back and he started fitting early doors today. Took him vets who confirmed he was on the way out so he's now under a cherry tree in the garden. Rest in peace old lad. Cheers, D. 16 Quote Link to post

Tiercel 6,986 Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 RIP Tod, funnily enough I don't find it distressing taking an old dog for his last visit. Sad yes, but I feel we owe it to them when they are in pain or just cannot cope any more. The last one was 141/2 and had had a good life. I still talk to him now every time I am at the bottom of the garden. TC 7 Quote Link to post

dytkos 17,537 Posted July 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 Thanks all, I'm OK with it tbh, it was his time but he'll be a hard act to follow, never let me down. No pics on this tablet but he was a decent sort. Cheers, D. 3 Quote Link to post
