Thank you Casey. It was such a shock, and I miss her so much. But in many ways it might be for the best. She was happy and totally herself, then she wasn’t. She didn’t suffer, apart from maybe in the last half an hour at the vets when she was definitely anxious and unhappy. She had a good life, and, I think, a good death. She was loved and held right till the end.
And I know that she would have struggled more than I anticipated with the new kitten, given that her heart was clearly not healthy. I am glad she didn’t have the stress of dealing with another animal in the house, now that I know she was unwell.
But I will miss her for a very long time to come. She was a beautiful dog.
Thanks Sarah. It was such a shock,and I miss her so much. The kitten is keeping me busy and I'm smitten with her, but it doesn't stop me missing Shanti hugely.
Oh, I'm so sorry for your loss, Esther. I lost my dog Milo the same way back in 2004. Suddenly in a very similar way as you describe here. It's a grief that rips at you. How sweet are these pics. Shanti was your girl. Always will be. RIP sweet Shanti.
such a heartfelt eulogy! The saying goodbye to Pets I remember - cats and dogs - always with the memories, and knowing when to say goodbye is tough but best for our furry friends
I am stunned and saddened by this news.
I'm so very sorry for your loss.
The fact that it came from nowhere certainly makes it that much harder to contend with.
Sending love to you and Marcus.

Thanks Adam. She was a wonderful dog, and I'm so grateful for the time we had with her, but she is dearly missed
Awww, I'm so sorry for your loss. Our furbabies are so special to us. They have a space in our hearts that can never be filled.
