Thread: Photos of your dog

Bit of a sad one but our wee girl came home yesterday. Man she managed to get under my skin big time the wee ratbag, sucks when they go young and instead of a lifetime of memories you're left with a whole lot of "if only she was here.."

Big feels for ya, our border collie started losing weight recently. And then he started having back leg problems, basically hip dysplasia. But it was weird, it was coming on way to fast. We ended up at the vet, it was a combo of diabetes + hip dysplasia plus a kidney infection for good measure. The vet said he'd need 2 injections a day, a limited diet (difficult when we have another dog), probably glucose checks daily, and probably evening after hours vet visits for IV fluids. By this time he was buggered, his quality of life was shit, and he'd lost 5kg (normally 28kg down to 23kg), I could see it in his eyes it was his time. He was only 8 so early for a collie.



I have 3 boys that have grown up with him, a real family dog. So the last couple of weeks have been hard for the whole family.

That's an awful shame.

It's a cliche, but the real cost of a dog is paid when it dies - I'm sorry for you.
