  • This is a really nice thread.
    I will scan some pictures of my boy soon and post in his memory. It's been almost 2 weeks, and though it is getting easier, it's definitely not easy.

    You all have BEAUTIFUL boys and girls...so fluffy and loving and fun, you can just tell!

    my doggie is on his last legs, and if he makes it for the next month or so i will basically be saying goodbye to him forever when i move. he's a border collie, born 28/11/1988. i got him in february 1989, start of grade 2. he's a fighter, whenever we think ok, this is it, he makes a comeback but i think this wil be his last *hurray*. he needs chronic meds, he takes 100mg rimadyl a day for pain and arthritis and 5ml of bladder sphincter medicine so he doesn't leak. i feel so sorry for him. he's in bad shape, esp on days like today when it rains. his nerve impulses from his brain to his legs don't work so well anymore, some marrow in his spine is degrading and causing occasional gaps so the signals don't get through. so he doesn't have much co-ordination left. but he still smiles and wags and recognises everyone and appreciates a pat so i don't want him put down yet. as long as he has quality of life like that, i.e. being happy when he sees us, he's enjoying his life. e might be on a massive trip from the rimadyl but he still enjoys it :) he's survived tick fever, a couple of times, and being mauled three times by the stupid fucking neighbour's pitbull jumping over a 7 ft wall... and he's such a kind dog, would never hurt a soul.

    anyway... a toast to blitz... he was a fine boyhood friend. even though you treat them well, you know you could've treated them better.

    as always there is hope, tuppence in perth :) and hopefully an adopted doggie from the RSPCA, but i'll need permission first ;)

    first, thanks for sharing that with us.
    second~its never easy knowing when is the right time to put your dog down. I went thru that last year with a very special friend of mine. His Rottie hadd been with him for 13 years. Saved his owners life more than plenty. Billie (the rottie) went with him EVERYWHERE. Was his only family exxxcept for Billies brother Jerry Lee. We noticed that she was starting to have trouble walking. Total change. It took us from january last year til august to finally make the decision. But only AFTER the vet said Billie was suffering but didnt want anyone to know. It was the hardest thing ever because like your dog~she still played once in a while, was happy everytime we got home, but that spark was gone. It was so hard to do but alota times we keep them alive for our sake more than their own & we dont even realize it. I wish that we NEVER hadd to say goodbye to ANY of our "kidz". Its super difficult. I hope that when the time comes for you~you know that we are here & understand.

    I must admit that all your dogs are so gorgeous and when i end up getting a place of my own my first investment will be doggie.Im saving up for a Rhodesian Ridgeback,one of the purdiest dogs i ever did see!
    What is a man without opinions and principals?

    What matters is not the size of the man in the fight, but the size of the fight in the man!

    I walk firmer and more secure uphill than down!
    WAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!
