RIP Fang. Have a meet up with Zedley and you can swap stories with him.

For the last few weeks I have been woken by 'Zedley' noises. His bed used to be beside a chest of drawers and if he turned in his sleep he often kicked it. He also made a noise like his tongue was stuck to the roof of this mouth (like a tutt sound) in his sleep. I have heard these noises on a number of occasions and also 'felt' him bump against the side of the bed (it is a high bed) and the other morning I felt him jump lightly onto the bed, which he used to do before he had to leave me. Any one else had similar experiences? I am not finding it scary, rather comforting in fact.

They have grown so much! If you can get at least one into Europe it will be a real 'feather in your cap', I do hope at least one goes, and takes your worderful breeding skills to Europe and maybe even gets into Crufts and WINS!!!!!

Death Of A Pet Can Hurt As Much As Loss Of A Relative
Loraine replied to Perry's Mum's topic in General Dog Discussion
For me the grief over the loss of a special dog is painfull. I was at the dentist today for my annual check up, first words from my dentist "where is Zedley?", I very nearly burst into tears when I had to tell him that Zedley wnt to the Bridge on 28th December 2011. I think of the boy everyday, and as he used to go almost everywhere with me many people miss him too! -
RIP Buffy. Condolences to you and your sister LM.

Darned fantastic How proud you must be. I didn't realise that ANKC did not recognise them - ratbags!!!!

Coco Miniture Poodle - 15.5, he had Cushing's disease for the last 3 years of his life, went to the Bridge (PTS) with kidney failure. He was my heart dog and is still sorely missed. Zedley - Wire Haired Fox Terrier - 9, he went to the Bridge (PTS) after 9 grand mall seizures damaged his brain and he lost all cognitive function. He came to me after Coco passed and filled a hole in my heart. Mitzi and Nena - Wire Haired Fox Terriers 14 and 16. Mitzi had cancer and was (PTS) and Nena committed suicide, also had cancer. Mother and daughter. Nena was my foundation bitch and Mitzi was her daughter. both been gone over 40 years.

What a gorgeous boy Zac is. I am so glad you have found anoher on which to shower your love. Another reason for me not to get another dog yet is that my son and his family are returning to the UK in the next month or three, maybe for good. If it turns out that way then I too will return as I want to see my grandchildren. I intend anyway to visit the UK next year (after they are settled) for 3 to 6 months. Spend some time with them and my Sister and her family and go to Europe for French food and see friends in Spain, Italy is also a place I would like to return to. Given all that I don't feel it fair to get a new dog and then leave him for months on end, before we really know each other. I'm still not ready, but I know that 'stuff' happens.

Thanks all. Whilst I adore BJ, I do nknow that he is not mine and therefore not a replacement, but he does fill me with joy. This is his 3rd holiday stay with me, so I have no problems with him getting 'homesick', as this is his second home. The nicest thing is that his family can all go on hols and not have to worry about hi, they know if he needs a vet he will see a vet, he will be fed and spoiled and loved, whilst they can kick back with the kids and enjoy themselves.

I am not surpised, you put in such a lot of thought and hard work into you breeding programme - WELL DONE both dogs and their owners
-
:laugh: Since the loss of my dear Zedley I am not ready for another dog BUT I have another dog here I am dog sitting for BJ the yellow lab whilst his people are on hols. It is lovely to have a dog aroud the house (but he is not the Zedboy). He is such a lovely boy and I am his second Mum, and I am enjoying my time with him (just 5 days). In time another dog will live here, but for now this is just so lovely and no guilt about replacing my Zedley, as he was Zedley's best buddy.

Thanks for all your advice. RallyValley I got your message and have passed to my son - many thanks from him and me. They will be renting over there for some time and have already found that it will be extremely difficult to rent with such a large dog, most house owners are declining all pets!
-
All well and good but how do you propose it deals with 24 plus hours in transit/ on flights? Pretty sure Weis are bloat prone so the stress may be a too big a risk. The vet has said it is too big a risk, Alfie has already had one torsion and the trip, door to door is 30 hours in a crate.
-
My son and hsi family are hoping to move back to the UK in a couple months time. They have an 8 year old male, desexed, microchipped Weimaraner. Alfie suffers separation anxiety and his vet has advised against him being shipped to the UK. Son has asked me to help find a new home for Alfie. I am not even sure where to start. I am a member of SAFE, so I will contact them tomorrow, but I do know this dog needs to go to an experienced Weimaraner person. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Rozzie I am so sorry for the loss of Mandrake. R.I.P dear boy.
-
I am so sorry for your loss, I know the heartbreak you are feelig.
-
Thank you all for your kind comments. I am missing him terribly and constantly turning to look for him. I miss his morning kiss, I even miss him lying of my clothes that are out ready for dressing.
-
I am so sorry for your loss, and I uderstand how you must miss him. My Zedley went to the Bridge on 28 Dec and I am still looking for him (((HUGS))
-
Run free Benshiva. Go join Zedley who went to the Bridge on the 28th December. He is a really good mate.
-
Zedley is now at the . He went with his usual stoic dignity and my heart is in pieces. Thank you all for your very kind words in my hour of need.
-
Zedley has flown to the Bridge. He went with his usual quiet dignity, which is more than I could muster. The much loved boy is at peace and whole once again meeting up with old mates and new. Loved you so much my stoic boy

I will not be able to write this tomorrow as my heart will be broken. You flew to me fron NSW from another kind DOGZ person. You helped heal my pain after the loss of my beloved Coco. You filled my heart with love, but now my darling boy I must let you have your wings tomorrow. Coco will meet you at and make you welcome, and you can both diss me and remember how I loved you both. I want only the best for you my boy, and the way your life is now is not how I want to see you, or how you should have to be. You have been the most faithfull, gentle boy. It never bothered you when my granddaughter pulled on your side tashes so she could see your teeth, it never bothered you when the 2 grandkids fought over who would hold your leash. You made many doggie mates and human friends in our small cul-de-sac and you will be sadly missed by all. You will be forever in my heart, right beside Coco as you were the 2 most very special boys. Love forever my sweet boy.

Thanks Pers, it is only 7 years since my beloved Coco went to the Bridge, also in December.
