    I’m so sorry, Jack. Her memory will live on as long as the humans who knew and loved her does and she’s now been immortalised on the BBS. #OnceARed

    RIP. Never had a dog in the family in all my six decades on this planet but our son and his girlfriend are getting one in a few weeks. I’ve a feeling I might like it, looking forward to finding out :)

    I only looked after a Staffie called Demek occasionally although he was living with us for a few months while his parents were looking for somewhere to live. So, all in all, I spent a good bit of time with him including a whole morning a few days before he was put to sleep. I loved taking him out on the Harrogate Stray and he enjoyed my attention because he wasn’t getting enough exercise with them.

    His health deteriorated rapidly in a matter of days and then we got the news that he’d gone. Not my dog but I was devastated so I can only imagine what it’s like when it’s your family dog that has to go. So sorry Jack.
