My daughter who just had the baby had to put her French Bulldog down today. The poor bugger had a number of spinal abnormalities that were giving him pain. We were assured that spinal surgery for the neck area would alleviate the majority of the pain, and the remainder could be handled with anti-inflammatory drugs, so we went ahead on the basis he would be up and about, but kept quiet for 2 weeks. Well , 8 weeks later we finally got him over the neck surgery, only for him to collapse from the other spinal issues which could only be controlled with pain relief, so strong he would be asleep the whole time - anti inflamms were of no use - unfortunately this all happened last night and he was rushed to an emerg vet and it was time to say goodbye to the little champ this morning. First vet didn't quite get the balance of injury management right unfortunately, as 'in hindsight' we should not have put him thru the agony of the neck surgery - but you try to keep them don't you. RIP Hugo.

Hi Clunk good to see your back on the bike.
Does that dog have a bit of Rottie in it.?
@Rossco never good when you lose a mate.
@PeeBee, same goes for you they ask for nothing
just a feed and a pat, but boy do they leave a mark.
There is no Love like a dog has for his owner.
We are thinking of getting another dog for Tyler
maybe a jackie.

To be honest TD, we have no idea what mix he is.... we did think possibly Rottie but we reckon definitely American Staffy , maybe Kelpie... he's quite lean and has a shit load of energy. He's coming up to 7 months old now and weighs 22Kg. So happy to have him in our lives.

For the first time in over 60 years I don't have a dog.
We said our final goodbye to KEL on Wednesday, another loyal and faithful companion for fourteen years. He was also a rescue dog and he was part of the family, loyal, faithful (but would swap that for food), and a great companion.
He deteriorated in the last twelve months with failing eyesight and hearing but that never stopped him from enjoying life. Earlier this year at his annual check-up we found he had more serious issues and we knew we didn't have long. We always agreed that we wouldn't let him suffer and keep him alive for our sake.
His end was very peaceful and the vet allowed us both to be there and hold him while he was euthanised. We've always agreed that we'd never just drop the dogs off and leave them with a stranger at the end.
The place is full of reminders of him and it's a pretty sad time, he loved everyone (except cats) and the grandkids loved him.
Lead a great life with us and will be sadly missed, goodbye KEL.

Good for you Nic, sure he will give you years of happiness. We have been looking for a new fur baby ourselves at the shelters, but with lockdown that nailed it for us for a while - simply heaps of dogs avil country areas but not a lot that fits the bill in the metro area.
