Jekyll 329 Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 (edited) Lost my young bitch 'Gin' last night whilst out lamping she would have been 2 at the end of the month, things were going well had some great runs catches and retrieves, but the last run was different as she walked her rabbit to the hedge, myself and Sirius could tell something was up and suspected a pulled muscle or just knackered, I said to Sirius think she's had enough tonight but as we got to her with head stooped she looked at me and knew there was a bigger problem her back legs went immediately started shaking uncontrollably her eyes said it all. I then scooped her up with adrenaline flowing carryed her the few fields to the truck, she had to be put on the ground 3/4 time while she fitted, close to the car I got on the phone to the vet but unfortunately it was all to late and she died pretty much as soon as we got her in the truck. For the first time last night i lay wide awake and relived near every one of her runs, had lots of great memory's and she made me proud to own her in that short time, she'll be greatly missed by myself and my family as was a great pet to have around the house too. Rip ginner! Edited February 9, 2014 by Jekyll Quote Link to post
Sirius 1,391 Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 (edited) A real crying shame mate. She went doing something she had done many times before and we hoped many times in the future, she lived for it and was a real natural....sadly it just wasn't to be :( RIP GIN Edited February 6, 2014 by Sirius 9 Quote Link to post
