GSDhandler Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 i was housesitting for some extended family, to look after Harvey, as he had been sickly. a week from us getting there, he woke me at 3, frantic and crying. i just knew. and he wanted his mum and dad, and they were over 200 ks away. we called them, and told them what was happening, and they decided at 6 they would head back. harvey passed at 7 am but he saved his mum and dads life. their petrol hose had gone, and had they not returned as soon as they had, they may not have made it either. he was almsot 15, riggled with tumours, and had only been born with half a heart. he put up a great fight.

baifra Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Oh what a special dog Harvey sounded like. RIP old man. What a handsome man. My heart is just breaking for the family. It would have meant the world to the family to know that you were there for them and loving him at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sumosmum Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 So glad you were with him at the end. What a wonderful battle he fought in his life. So sorry for his family, who I am sure will be missing him so much. Such a handsome boy. RIP Harvey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GSDhandler Posted July 23, 2008 Author Share Posted July 23, 2008 Harvey's mum and dad have a little shrine for him ATM and keep forgetting he isnt there any more, and so every so often still put food down for him. they have taken in a rescue dog now, though mum seems a little non plused. she isnt quite sure whether or not she can keep it, emotionally.
