We've just put him down

[WaitrosePigeon]

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

Heartbroken. RIP Harvey

Oh OP he looks like he was an absolute cracker. I'm so sorry for your loss, kindest yet hardest thing to do.

Oh I am so sorry for your loss Run free little Harvey I'm so glad you had a happy life with someone who loved you xx

Aww lovey its heartbreakingloosing a pet Rip harvey

Oh Harvey...that beautiful, lively, sparkly little character can have a real party now!! You are gorgeous.

OP so much warmth and support to you.

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

I'm so very sorry he looks like he had so much personality. A true doggy gent.

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!!

So sorry for your loss Waitrose, it was the most compassionate and respectful thing of all time you could have done for Harvey, all the happy memories xx

You did what was best for beautiful Harvey, so sorry. No words can be said to console as we know the heartbreak. xx

I'm so sorry- it's the hardest decision to make, but you loved him enough.

Heartbreaking :(

What a cute boy. It hurts more than words.

Oh Waitrose So sorry. He had an artful look in his eye - and he looks like he had a great life. xx

He looks like he was a real character. Those cute ears!

So sorry for your loss

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

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

I am so sorry

Oh bless him, he was gorgeous, I'm so sorry. Take comfort from all the love and fun you had, and know you loved him enough to stop him suffering.

OP, I am so sorry.

I just took one look at the cheeky face and burst into tears.

(Pregnancy and hormones)

Ah poor little fella, poor you too this is an awful time.

What a smashing little dog. I'm so sorry.

So sorry OP Saying goodbye to a pet is honestly awful. All the best

So sorry Waitrose. We lost our old boy a year and a half ago. Know how you feel. Have you got any more dogs or was he the only one?

Run free Harvey, fit and young again over the bridge. Hugs to your hoomans

awww i am sorry .

Thanks all

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
