We've just PTS our 13yr old Yorkshire terrier. His legs went and he had lost control of his bowels.

Heartbroken. RIP Harvey Sad

Thanks everyone. Not sure what to do with myself. I can't believe I won't smell him ever again. Rotten.

I have four dogs - one is 13 and has seen me through everything that counts, and the other three are all under 1. The smell of my old boy is just delicious - way better than the puppies. Especially his ears. His day is not so far away now either.

I understand, and Harvey looks like a little rogue!!

Everyone mentioned his ears, most days he was mistaken for a puppy Grin

Feels very shit this morning. His bed is empty. We slept together every night and his space was cold. It was terrible.

Thanks all for your nice words, makes me well up xx

Thanks all Flowers

I just can't be without a dog. We've all had a chat and we agree. I've found a KC registered, pedigree breeder that is due a litter in July, we've reserved a boy. I think we'll call him Monty Smile
