Sorry to hear that he looks like a lovely dog!

I am at the other end of the doggy journey - we pick up our new puppy tomorrow! I hope he turns out to be as good natured as Flynn!

Really sorry to hear about Flynn, he looks such a great dog. My King Charles is 13 this year and people tell me that is a good age for a King Charles. When I say "my dog" she really was my late husbands dog and when her time comes I know that will make it such a big wrench.
I know you will make the right decision Ace, thinking of you.

I cried, but Nanny you never cry, when Basil Brush had to be put to sleep, my alastian dog. But the vet was very good, we went back three times and he said it is your dog and your will know when enough is enough. We stayed up all night with him stroking his ears, his back legs had gone, and a nasty man called out to me when I took him out for his last walk, that I was cruel. But it was horrible to have to decide to have him to put to sleep, but luckily we had a good vet, and he said it is your animal and it is your decision, still a horrible one to make. I cried so many tears for that dog, my best friend so many year. I still feel for you, but no more dogs for me. I love the cats, but that dog was really my best mate.

No more pain. He went with dignity. The sadness will fade in time. But the memories are forever.

I must thank you all for your pm's and support.

Sorry Ace, I really feel your pain, always when I hear this my heart goes right back to my loss, if it helps though the hardest bit is over now and the memories will come easier in a while..

Feeling for you Ace.

Our daughter came home last week for a visit and still walks in the front door thinking Wrinkles our dog would bound through even though it's some years ago that she left us.

Part of a family and always in our hearts.

I can only empathise Ace, words mean very little at these times. He will always be in your heart.

You really are a lovely lot of people. The house seems empty without him but I have had some nice photos framed and we can now talk about him without welling up so much. We have had a good talk and decided to give it a couple of months and get another dog. There will never be another Flynn and we would not get the same breed but we are confident we can give another dog a good home. I have always liked boxers, they look so lively and intellegent so now have to convince mother that they don't all slobber. She would like something in the larger spaniel or setter line.

Like I say we are not going to rush into it but if any of you have these breeds, give us the lowdown.

We have the space, the patience and the knowledge it is the temperament of the breeds we are not sure of. But in the end a good dog is a reflection of the owners care.

Last year when we had to put our Brandy to sleep, we were supposed to have bit of a 'break' while getting our heads cleared from it all and eventually starting to look for a new family member. OH lasted a week when he started to whine after another dog...and within 2 weeks we had one.. ;D I wasn't in a hurry..but when it did happen it was my desicion that we take her (Amber) and never looked back.. ;D
Can't say anything about those breeds..we are terrier people..but many or our friends have had spaniels and I've never seen nasty one yet. They always seem to be most gentle breed and veeery loyal..brilliant with kids.

One of my neighbours had a boxer who insisted on going out with him when he took his very posh vintage car out - Henry would sit up in the back seat & always managed to give the impression he was about to give a gracious wave as he went by, a total character & gentleman.
