    So sorry to hear of your loss, Baz. Love to you and your missus. Fergus couldn't possibly have had a more loving family.

    So sorry to hear of your loss Dragon Tyke. Been through this (5 Labs over the years) and when I pass a lab, it always makes me smile. Big daft buggers (like their owner). I've always gone through a "never again' few months then relented.
    Cherish the memories and I hope you and yours feel better soon.

    As a Cairn terrier lover, or even any dog, I am so sorry to hear about your loss.

    Sorry to hear that, you’ve done well by him though if he’s got to that age.

    Very Sad news and lots of sympathy. It’s a definite flaw that Dogs only live 10-15 years and so they will pass on to the kennels in the sky long before we want them to, but I’m sure Fergus has had a good life and been well loved and you life has been better for sharing it with him.

    DT ... I'm so so sad for your loss.
    My doggies are my best friends and no doubt I'm not alone in that. Times like this are devastating and seem endless. Hope you bear up.
    Badger and the family xx

    As some will know or remember I went through the same 4 weeks ago today and I can honestly say every day as been a struggle since, Fergus looked a beautiful dog and it's a very sad time when they pass, god bless
