Our lovely lurcher died suddenly last night recovering from an operation to fix her leg that was damaged in a road traffic accident a month ago.
It was unexpected, although of course these things happen. It was no one's fault.
We are all devastated. I can't believe that I will never get to see her running free again and the kids are full of questions and tears.
But I feel most sorry for our remaining dog as he's obviously wondering what happened to his friend. The clinic where she went for her surgery is about 40 minutes away, so I guess I could take him up to say 'goodbye' but she'll have been in storage and I don't want to see her like that.
We will get another rescue dog at some point, (we like to have two) but not just yet.
Has anyone else had a sad dog when they lost their friend suddenly, and how long did it last?
