• Very sorry to hear about the loss of Tess. She sounds like she had 14 wonderful years that she wouldn't have had if you had listened to the vet.


  • what a beautiful tribute. i'm sure she's running happily at St Peter's gate now.


  • I'm so sorry for your loss..

    Hugs from Holland and run free Tess


  • I'm sorry Tess. Excellent that you never gave up on her and gave her a great life.


  • Very sorry for your loss, run free sweet Tess


  • So sorry to hear this Scott; no, it never gets any easier but she did have a great life thanks to you.


  • So sorry to hear about the loss of Tess.. I think it's wonderful you gave her the chance to grow up into a strong girl who lived a great life.

    Run free Tess!


  • I am so sorry for your loss. She had a great life thanks to you.


  • Sorry for your loss. Prayers to you.

    See you at the bridge Tess when I finally come to play with my Snorkie.


  • Scott - I am so sorry. I can commiserate because my Ama also died Thursday morning. He was 15 and three months and had not suffered at all. The day before he had his usual lengthy walk with 'his girls' . He ate a good evening meal and we had a romp on the settee when he liked to pretend he was a puppy. He had a normal evening and slept at the bottom of my bed. I was woken up by a chattering of teeth and he had gone into a seizure which lasted about 2 hours despite our attempts to stop it. He was unconsc ious and never rallied. A good way to go - without having suffered but devastating. He was so fit we expected at least another year or more of life. I know you saw him in the ring at NBS under Helena Stromberg.

    Sorry, once again about your special girl.


  • Helena,
    i am sorry to hear about your loss of Ama, it is comforting to think that he had a great last day and didn't suffer.
    Hope to see you tomorrow at the NBS
