    Rescued her 6 years ago after she was picked up with no chip so no idea of age or what her previous life was like. The most loving, intelligent and feisty dog going, she would fight a lion. Without a doubt the best dog I've ever owned
    RIP Zola sleep well. FB_IMG_1751307299458.jpg

    Sorry to hear this, I feel your pain, they give so much but leave a gapping hole, just remember you've given her 6 fantastic years that she might never have had before, doesn't make it easier but might provide a crumb of comfort in time.

    Deepest Sympathy, until 7 months ago I was not a dog person, youngest daughter had sone serious mental health issues and asked if she could bring her (and boyfriends) dog Willow home, I said she can stay in the hall and utility.....she sleeps on Cherries bed, snuggles up to me on the sofa and I am absolutely besotted with her.....I now truly know what you are going through RIP Zola

    Feel your pain Sparky. Lost my fur boy in March and still trying to come to terms with it so much so that, from thinking I wouldn't go through it again, I'm now thinking of bringing another dog in to my life. Zola will have her wings somewhere over the Rainbow Bridge.

    Sorry to hear this sad news. They become part of the family and their loss is hard to take, but I bet you have some great memories to look back on.
