I am sorry if i am not allowed to post remove if needed.
I would just like to say that we lost our much loved Labrador Sable on Saturday.
She was fine on Monday running around and playing. Tuesday she went off her food, which is not like her as she will eat anything. We took her to the vets on Wednesday and the vet said her stomach was a bit sore and gave her some pain killers and said bring her back if she doesn't improve.
Friday we went back as she would not eat and now drink so they did blood tests which were clear, gave her more pain killers and said bring her back for x rays if still no better. She cried most of the night so next morning i left her at the vets for the x rays.
Later that day the vet called and asked us to go in and see the x rays. She had a lump in her lung that covered half of it. i had no choice but to say goodbye.
I still can't believe that she is not here and am devastated.
Amber.

Oh Amber, I am so, so sorry to hear that. You must be in shock, for it to come with no warning like that.

It sounds like Sable was only in pain for very few days, and was enjoying life to the fullest up until then, which is a mercy for her.

Dogs aren't just pets, are they? They are part of the family and I am sure she will be very, very missed. Thinking of you and sending you hugs.

Hi all , I have two more hens that have joined the roaster of lost friends.
No 6 and no 7 of the blue rings.
It seems they have succumbed to the some problems.
Over the last week now I have lost 2,6 ,7 and the Cookoo Maran .
I am now a bit concerned and watch the flock intently.
Bye girls and say Hi to the flock preceded you.

Amber I am so sorry you have lost your beloved Sable, all pets are part of the family but I know with dogs they choose us and have a tighter bond than any other pet so it makes it even harder {hug&kiss}

Amber I'm so sorry to hear about Sable {cry} That must have been a huge shock. I still remember that feeling of devastation when we lost Jasper very unexpectedly. Huge hugs to you {hug}

And I'm so sorry to hear of more losses in your flock Bob. Perhaps it's just their time and nopthing more sinister than that

Hi the sad news keeps on coming , Joan my large hen from Croydon died this morning . She had lost the use of her wing and her leg. She was eating this morning and passed away whilst I was up stairs . I did manage a cuddle before she died .
She was a lovely hen and was never sorry I gave her a home . Thanks to the family that gave her to me so long ago.
Fly high over the bridge .
