Too many of these sad times of recent

[hendrix's rifle]

I've unfortunately had to make the decision to have my eldest 'tracking' dog have her last day with us. She began slowing down a couple of years ago which is hardly surprising given she'd have been around 8 years old at the time. She was an absolutely brilliant dog, the sort that would do as asked and she'd do it to the best of her ability. You could prod and poke her as much as you like with no reaction. Clip her toe nails or pull ticks off her and she'd sit there whilst you did it quite happily.

She really was the best dog a man could ask for, happy as long as she was at your side. Im glad I made the decision to stop her suffering no later and had the decency not to put her through operations for my own selfish reasons.

My Zena, enjoy those deer up in the skies.

Not an easy decision to make, but it is the correct one and she would have thanked you for your strength in doing it sooner rather than later. You will have plenty of happy memories of the good times

We all feel your pain mate

We all feel your pain mate

Sincere condolences - never easy!

Worst part of having any pet having to say good bye.

But think of the times you had together the good and bad and you will smile.

I'm sorry mate. There's nothing to say that can help. Just know you're not alone, and that we all know exactly what you're going through.

Better a day early, than a minute too late. Hard as it always is, you did her the last kindness you possibly could

I know how your feeling

lovely looking dog, one of the hardest decisions one ever has to make in life, looks like a life well lived and loved, RIP Zena.
