RIP Tilly

My beautiful Tilly was euthanised on Monday. 4 weeks short of being 13. 252 deer with me.
She has spent 5 weeks in the backyard recovering from paralysis in the hind legs which only very marginally improved. Sadly the prognosis was for no more improvement and very limited mobility. RIP Tilly.

:oh noes:

@Tahr, she was blessed to have you as her owner and you to have her as your hunting companion and buddy.
You gave her a fantastic life.

The worst news.
So sorry to hear this but you have made the best decision for her.
RIP Tilly.

Sad news. RIP Tilly.

@Tahr. I can imagine your grief and you and family have my deep sympathy. Try to keep the grief managed and determine to locate a suitable pup. A good pup with potential will soften the times ahead. Take it easy man.
RIP Tilly.

Sad to hear Tilly has moved on B, your posts of hunts spent with Tilly were one of the major factors in me deciding to get my pup and train him on deer. I'm sure she inspired plenty of others also.

I'm so sorry to hear this Tahr

RIP Tilly

Sorry to hear that Bruce, she looked a lot like my first GWP Tess. Tilly was a pretty special dog. Enjoy the memories.

Sorry to hear that mate
Condolences

:( Tilly was a legend in her own life

Sorry to hear the sad news, take it easy and reflect on the great times together

Sorry to hear that Thar,

I remember when you got her as a pup and posted about her training and progress on the hnf forum and I enjoyed following her/your progress together,

Tilly had a great owner and would have seen more of the country than most people, you have given her a great life. Its never easy to let them go, a dogs love of their owner is unconditional.

Sad news Bruce, she was one hell of a dog by all accounts

Aw mate that is terrible news :(
She had a great life but that is of little consequence at the moment, and no matter how many times it is said to me when I lose a mate, it never really helps until many months later. The more time you spend together, the harder it is when they leave.
Best wishes to you and the family at this difficult time Tahr

My condolecences Bruce. I've followed her from the very start on the old forum, it's been a remarkable journey. The thing in my mind that sticks out the most is that her entire hunting career has been documented. It really cleared the air in terms of game numbers a passionate hunter can expect to shoot over a dog in its life. Prior to Tillys arrival there was so many bullshit stories of tally over a dog. So thank you both for setting the record straight. Rest easy Tilly.

It is always tough to lose a good dog as they are part pf the family. My commiserations

Bruce, my sincerest condolences mate.
Never an easy decision to make and if your anything like me there is no justifying it, I felt so guilty when we made the decision to end our old girls suffering even though it was the kindest and most compassionate thing to do.
No shame in admitting I blubed like a child when she left us to deal with her passing.
I've said it before but I'll repeat it, she may only be a part of your life but you were all of Tilly's life.
They leave a big hole in your heart and a lump in your throat.
Hope you enjoy the memories for years to come mate. Thank you for sharing her with us all.
Rest in peace sweet Tilly

Oh Bruce, sad news and a rough day for ya mate. I bet you are going to miss those special times together on the hill, but you sure have so many awesome memories and stories to remember and photos to ponder.

She had a fantastic life with you mate.

RIP Tilly dog

Sorry to hear Bruce.She can rest easy now,but her spirt will still be with you out on the hills.Loved the photos of her always standing beside yr slayed deer.
RIP Tilly.

Sorry to hear mate, condolences to you and the family.

Sorry to hear of your news Bruce.

Sorry to hear Bruce...RIP Tilly

I am not ashamed to say I had tears in my eyes the day I got to meet the lovely brown ball of fluff,it meant a hell of a lot to me that you took the time to divert out of your way so I could,and the venison you dropped off was awesome and appreciated.
when I heard she was crook I had big sob session and did again when heard the news she had passed.
Tilly you wonderful lass.....we will meet again,look after nugget for me please,feel free to give him a nip when he misbehaves.you are a legend that will stay with me forever.Attachment 193654

Sad news mate. A beautiful deer tally and a good looking dog

wow that sucks. Its a very hard time when you loose your special little mate.

Take pride though man. She was obviously a fantastic dog.

She had a great life doing what she loved. And she was loved and looked after by you and your family.

A dog couldnt really want for anything else.

Hard to let them go, but its the ultimate act of love and affection for your dog to let them go.

RIP Tilly. You are missed more than you will ever know.

No words…..Sad……Sorry to hear this……in fact very sorry to hear this. RIP Tilly. Take pause Tahr. Reflect on the enormity of her time with you.

Sorry to hear of your loss Bruce – condolences to you and your family
You had so many years with her and fabulous memories – RIP Tilly

Sorry to hear, their time with you are short in human terms, you have to make the best of it while their in your care which I think Tilly really had from you.

So Sad
Rip Tilly.

That’s a bugger Tahr. Go well Tilly.
