Long day

So, I get a text at 8 this morning from a friends who's dog Pheobe (not a staff) had had a stroke, up I shot and chatted for a couple of hours, she got called back to the vets as her gums wheren't as pink as they wanted them to be. So her mum was with her and she had to go for an op.

I thought after that the weather is stunning so I'll have a day of me and Moo sun bathing in the park. Another friend had asked if I could take there dog out as they where kinda stuck but I said no because the weather was too nice.

Packed up the cool bag and off we set. It clouded over a little but was still stunning. I began to feel guilty about the dog I had said I couldn't walk, so after an hour I headed home and went and picked up Ralph (he lives a few miles away) by this point it was sweltering and I would have been much happier sun bathing lol.

I got a call on my walk, Pheobe had died, she didn't make the operation, very very sad poor girl, friends in bits understandbly.

Anyway, after a full days walking and a lot of emotion I am shattered and saddened by the loss, they don't live long enough

poor Pheobe this is main reason breeder should bred for health instead of looks maybe after while we may have an extra 5 years with our best friends

Ohh Janey I really feel sad for your friend, I hope she is OK. Poor Phoebe RIP

She wasn't a pure breed just a lovely dog, she was also oldish but it just wasn't expected, they assumed she would be coming home after the op, I guess we all want to think that.

ah what a rubbish day,big hugs to your friend she must be in pieces ><

sometimes you get up and just get dealt this sh1t makes you wonder if anyone is up there ?? hope you don't let it get to you too much
RIP Phoebe >< ><

Big hugs to your and your friend ><

Janey I feel really sad for your friend and hope she will be OK. RIP Phoebe

Very sad. My amber died of a stroke, she was too old to risk trying to operation so just had to be pts. it wasn't nice seeing her like that at all, she looked so helpless. RIP friends doggy!

What a sad day. I hope your friend is ok and today is better for you. RIP Phoebe.
