Beautiful dog, Jack.
R.I.P. Wags
There is a show on tv "MATE" where a guy does Taxidermy for pets.
Being from the States its a bit OTT, but does show you how much love we put into our pets.
My guy next door has the ashes of his Heeler in the bedroom, 21yrs old the heeler was.
I wouldnt do it, but some ppl replace loved ones with pets .I know I did with Jack {Doberman}
My red staffy, duke
I feel for ya mate.... I still miss my boy so much and when I see something like this it all comes flooding back.
All the best.
To say I'm blown away by the response to my post is an understatement, thanks everyone, really appreciated.
Who would have thought the flea bitten little mongrel we bought home would have such an impact. We only took him on as we felt sorry for him and let the grand-kids name him.
He used to cower when you looked at him or he heard a loud voice, spent the first couple of weeks attempting to escape but gradually gained our trust. Turned into a great little mate and watch dog.
He developed a heart condition in the last year and his long daily walks turned from vigorous treks to short slow strolls around the neighborhood, he never eased up on marking every available pole though. The last couple of months he had a rapid weight loss and that turned out to be diabetes and liver problems. He spent the last few weeks relaxing on the couch or my knee but was always alert if anyone came to the door.
We agreed that we were not going to prolong his life for our benefit, he peacefully died in my arms at the vets.
