We rescued Rosie six years ago. She was an ex-racer and now needed a forever home, to be loved, spoilt, pampered and cared for. We gave her this home and an extended family that welcomed her and loved her as much as we did.
She was a character and her warm loving nature meant she was a joy to see, interacting with our grandchildren.
We had so many adventures to have but alas this was not to be.
On Monday, she sustained a fracture to her leg that was spontaneous... Not a good sign and our worst fears were realised when the vet confirmed it was osteosarcoma 😔
She was a star and deserved a long and happy retirement but it was cruely cut short yesterday. She had fought her last fight and passed away peacefully being held by my wife Julie and my mother in law Claire. I could not face saying goodbye... I have my memories and the pain of seeing her take her last breath was too much for me.
It was ironic because Julie and Claire had brought her home originally... And now they had set her free 😭
As much as we loved her, we could not see her suffer.
She needed a release and she is now chasing and playing in heaven...
Goodbye my sweet Rosie... We will always love you and we are enriched by your grace, beauty and unconditional love. ♥️💕
Since our our dad loss, we have now adopted Droopys Jasmine... Or Jasmine as we call her.
ReplyDeleteShe is a black bitch that broke her leg last year and had been kenneled and overlooked. She broke her leg and was sidelined since... Never to race again, she was awaiting a chance of a new life, a forever home. She is loving, full of mischief and curiosity, and we fell for her so We adopted her and she has taken to our family as we have to her. She has filled up and looks very healthy now.
She loves the freedom of home, sleeping in different rooms, eating lots of food as she seemed as she was very hungry. We live her and are so glad we can give another dog a home. She is not RosieG and we miss her but Jasmine has certainly helped ease the pain and help me with my physio too... Welcome JazzyG xxx
That should read sad not dad!!!!
