Esky the husky Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) It is with great sadness that I just leaned of the passing of my childhood dog Towser. It was not the ever growing tumour on his side that took his life but a fatal snake bite. Unfortunately Towser was not able to join me when I left home, as he could not be separated from his brother (my parents dog) He has continued to live with my parents in a beautiful sunny coastal NSW home. My parents were not concerned with his snake hunting terrier ways and always allowed him to continue. I was glad to hear he spent today doing what he loved though, running on the beach. Towser you were my first companion and now that I know more about dogs, how I wish you could have had a better life. I never understood how to train you and was taught to use force. I'm sorry Despite this you were a great dog, no aggression, only love. You pulled like a steam train on the leash, had no recall and didn't know the word sit. I wouldn't trade you for the most trained dog in the world Run free sweet Towser, you deserved better. 980141_1239710366 by 9114, on Flickr towsers first day by 9114, on Flickr :D Edited February 11, 2011 by Esky the husky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MelodysMum Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Not another snake bite!! How sad, so many dogs recently being killed by snakes! Towser looks like a great fellow, I am really sorry for your loss. I have a stuffed toy dog that I was given when I was about 6 months old (so he is 51 years old) and he is called Towser. RIP Towser!

Luckily we found it though. Our neighbours dog recently passed, from a snake bite too. There really does seem to be a massive increase in the snake population...
