it is sad when they go but we had our last dog for 14 years so that's a good long life she had. It can be tying but tbh most of the time when we go places, it's places a dog could go anyway, plus we still have our adult son at home and he loves dogs so he's always handy to have on call. His g/f is baby sitting for us tonight as we're going to see Rhod Gilbert

Have you ever been on the Monmouth and Brecon canal? Is it close-ish to you? It's a really short canal, but you find yourself winding round a mountain with a steep drop off on one side and a mountain rising on the other. Easily one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen.

Yes, we often head around there, and around Wye Valley in the summer/autumn. Glorious places.

I lost my lovely old Bulldog girl Hollie just under a month ago, she would have been 15 next week. My best pal. Really sudden passing, fine one day then gone the next. Everyone keeps saying a puppy would mend my broken heart but it’s too soon yet. Maybe in the new year.

….awwww, I’m so, so sorry LaLa…:hug:…there’s nothing else really I can say other than she lived to a great age and that’s something that your family care enabled her to do…and she didn’t suffer if it was so sudden, so that’s something you would have wished for her, eh…and yeah, you’ll know and feel when it’s right…maybe next year, as you say…:love:…

Sorry to hear about this, Mark. Last month was the anniversary for ours and this sounds very similar to what we went through. Ours had a silent cancer that had taken over by the time we would've learned about it, which was normal for that cancer (https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/health/hemangiosarcoma-in-dogs/)... and yes, it's a massive blessing they can live so normally up until their time with some conditions, but then also so cruel for us humans because then the loss is more sudden...
