    You should feel very proud. You did everything possible to give him a great quality of life to the very end. He was a very lucky boy indeed.

    I am so very sad to read about Douglas. Douglas came into the world with you to cuddle him and he left with you cuddling him too, no dog could ask for more love, thought and compassion. Sleep tight lovely boy xxx

    Big hugs. I know you must be feeling empty, even with your other dogs around you. :(

    Rory and Midge were so lovely had some more very bad news health wise yesterday and it was all a bit much they were so attentive and I got a bit of Rory cuddle when I was upset and midge keeps sitting on my feet and I end up stroking her. I don't know how the stroking happens i just end up with my hand on her head and neck. She also gave me her toy rat she obviously thought I needed something to savage

    I remember recently when Harvey died I cried and cried. Benson gave me a bit of a skin rash from licking my face so vigorously!

    I feel good mostly and my OH is starting to get sweaty and panicky because he thinks I may get another dog. I've already been offered a GSP pup from a friends lastest litter and my mum(I'm bloody 49)has given me a lecture about not getting another dog.

    I told her I will if I want to and that at the moment I don't think i will. Its up to me and i will decide when and if the time is right. Its not right at the moment but i really don't like having just 2 dogs it really does not feel right.

    i'm just seeing if this fades with time, then I will decide as the next dog may well be my last one
