I hope people don't mind me posting here but I don't go on doggy forums.
I found out last night that my darling pupster Barney passed away yesterday afternoon. My mum text Neil about 5 but we were out at the races and then going to a wedding so he waited so I still went to the wedding.
My gorgeous Barnes, I remember going to the rescue after our Lucky had gone to Rainbow Bridge. As we went into the kennel you were just on your way out & pulling the walker along and Dad said something like we don't want one like. All the dogs in their kennels were lovely but none of them seemed to be drawn to us and as we were leaving you'd just got back. Well of course we stopped by and had a look, and there was just something about you and we ended up taken you home.
We don't know what you'd been through but to say you had issues was an understatement. We guessed someone had maybe held you buy the collar and beat you because you wouldn't let us touch you around there. Not long after we'd got you Joe must've grabbed your collar to take you inside and you bit him. Mum said you had to go back, we all begged and pleaded but you'd beaten and there was no way you could stay so off Mum went crying I have to say. When she came home I was going to ignore her but I saw you were still with her. The centre was full and couldn't take you back straight away. Well we never did get round to taking you back. You just just became part of the family.
Everybody loved you, you hated staying in kennels but it wasn't a problem friends would always let you stay at their house so you didn't need to go into them when Mum & Dad went away.
When I moved out, I knew you would be the one I missed most and when I went back to visit I think everyone knew the main reason was so I could get some pup cuddles.
You'd been so poorly recently that we thought the time had come and Mum told me to prepare myself. You got a bit better though, we knew there was a lump in you but you were getting old and we decided we didn't want to put you through an op and make you suffer with that or maybe worse and lose you while you were being operated on. You didn't want to go out for as many walks recently, but sometimes to look at you we'd forget how old you were. You'd still act like a little puppy at times.
When I found out last night I broke down, it still came as a massive shock. I can't stop crying Barn and it hurts to breathe. You were the best dog ever and I miss you so much already xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
