Tinkers passing
We knew it was coming but does not make it any easier, she woke us at 5am squealing in pain, then a respite for an hour then again, I could not wait till 9 am when the vets open so took her down at 6.45 to the emergency 24 hour surgery and did the deed, she was 16 and a half and had a good life, free to run wherever she wanted as with all 5 of our Jacks, she is buried with the others with a tree to mark her spot, Rick

So sorry Rick, you did the right thing, despite it being such a hard thing to do. Hugs to you and your good lady.
Have fun playing and pain free at the Rainbow Bridge, Tinker, it was a pleasure to meet you.

The saddest responsibility of pet ownership, doing the right thing when you'd do anything not to have to.
RIP Tinker. |
