A pet's passing

In 2005 in the early days of this blog, I posted this photo of our sweet natured dog, Pochi:


She quite suddenly took ill on Thursday night and died peacefully at home this afternoon, aged close to 16.  The only pet our children have know (we got her before our eldest was born), her sudden departure is being keenly felt tonight...

Sorry to read that Steve. But hey, she had a long and I presume good life.

Sorry to hear it steve. I never could understand how people can become so attached to animals until we got ours.

Thank you both. It's amazing how empty a house can feel once a 16 year old living part of it has left the scene.
