So sorry for you but I'm sure you timed it right. There comes a time when you're keeping them going for yourself and not for them.

My Poppy (GSD) departed 18months ago and I'm only just starting to think about a replacement. They are your biggest pal.

Take care, Thrift

So sorry - I know exactly how you feel. 
It's something that never seems to get any easier.
We all wish that they'd just make it simple for us and die in their sleep - sometimes it just doesn't happen and we have to make that decision. It was the right one, but so difficult.

Thanks all of you for your support.
   As we are moving soon we've taken Smudge to our new house and buried her in the garden there. When i've got the garden in a bit better shape i will make a huge flower bed of her grave so its all nice and pretty. Our other dog Jay, keeps sitting there and guarding it, dont think she can understand whats happened
    Finding it hard to cope with losing her but we were very lucky to have such a wonderful dog for all those years.
   We lost a friend, Tony, not so long ago, he liked a glass of wine or 2 and we like to think Smudge is up there with him and hes taking her for walks...to the bar!

What a lovely way to remember Smudge and Tony. x
Planting a flower bed is a great idea.

[Snap Dragon]

Aaah bless... what a beauty Smudge was!

She sounds like she had a long and happy life with you and looks like she made the most of every minute.

Thinking of you and sending you big hugs

I did a similar thing when my dog Sammy died, we planted dog roses and dog wood, so she will still provide colour in our lives for many years to come 

[SMD66]

It must be very difficult but you did the right thing.  She looked like a lovely dog. 

Take care

Sending big hugs,being a dog lover and losing our beloved collie 3 yrs ago this Christmas to a heart attack,they leave such a big hole.
But all I can say is the pain is worth it for the wounderful memories and unconditional love they have given us.
Take care..
